I stumbled across a Gulf Fritillary chrysalis on one of our passion vines a few weeks ago. Hadn't even seen any cats feeding. The chrysalis was actually attached to a plant stake supporting the passion vine, so I just brought the stake inside to protect the chrysalis from predators and propped it in a corner of the dining room, lol.

This morning my fritillary had emerged and was in the kitchen waiting for me. After a few obligatory pics were taken, I took the butterfly outside to a zinnia in the garden and took some more pics.
