Not sure where to post this. But I normally go home to feed my two kittens during lunch. I fed and played with them and left. As I just got outside and reached the first stop light right next to my apartment. I saw something moving on the corner of my glasses, I removed them and saw that it was a bug.

My short term memory is terrible, but it looked kinda like a centipede(maybe kind of?), if a centipede was just super super short. It was fairly small but I know it was bigger then a tick. I was able to move it from my glasses to my hand and then in a snapping motion crush it into pieces with minimal pressing, something you certainly can't do with a flea.

It also didn't seem to move around that much while i was taking off my glasses and moving it to my fingers.

I looked up the list of bugs commonly found on pets, and had no luck. Not sure what it is?

Taking both cats to the vet in the next few days.

Anyone have any ideas?

Could it have been a silverfish?

They're not cat related, but they're very common house bugs.
I don't think so, it really was barely bigger then a flea. Granted I have no idea how big that is, the tips weren't long.
