A quick google search leads me to identify this caterpillar as a Laurel Sphinx Caterpillar (Sphinx kalmiae). She wishes you a happy thanksgiving.

    Oh, I so totally led you astray when I told you this was a Tobacco Hornworm. I need an Arthropod refresher course something awful!

    I wouldn’t beat yourself up too much, they look pretty similar.
