I’m sure it’s the Tussock moth from the order Lepidoptera. Quite common in Ireland.
I saw one of those caterpillars out in the woods last week and got it identified. Beautiful vibrant colours, it stood out a mile!

That Joe’s. Haven’t you seen the “Missing” posters around for the last few days? Joe will be absolutely delighted that you found it safe and well. Give it a few leaves. It might be hungry. Then ring Joe. He’s been heartbroken since Tuesday.
He looks pleased to see you.
If reddit has ever taught me anything, no touchy the spiny ones.
