Caterpillar ID

My daughter brought home her first caterpillar yesterday and is delighted with herself. Obviously she wants to try and nurture it to maturity but the problem is we have no idea what plant it came from to provide food. Hopefully someone will have a better idea.

Did you try to attach a photo and it didn't work?
If so,I use www.imgbb.com to upload a photo then select bbcode fully linked and copy the URL.
Tis simplicity itself.
