I love jumping spiders. I sometimes feed them little droplets of honey from a toothpick (I leave it along their path) and they sometimes spend a few minutes drinking from it.

I also play with them and get them to chase a laser pointer, being careful to keep it away from their eyes.

Will spiders actually chase a laser pointer? Or was that last part a joke?
It's not my video, but here's an example:
