A terrified man told yesterday how a poisonous, hissing spider attacked him and his cat in his kitchen.
It reared up on its hind legs and charged at James Hoskins' bare feet when he disturbed it under a broom.
Shop worker James, 27, of Bideford, Devon, leaped on to a unit, but the vicious beast, possibly a false black widow, attacked his cat Bernie, biting his paw.
James said: "I've never seen a spider like it. It was so aggressive and even hissed when it ran at me.
After the stand-off I caught it in a cup, and let it go in a hedge."
