Hahaha, that would be one of the easiest pets ever. You dont have to walk it, you dont have to feed it much, you dont have to clean it, you can completly ignore it. :lol:

I think its cute! I'll have it for a pet. And when it dies, I'm having a French dinner. Hope I'll use the right fork. lck

I've seen more disgusting pets, but this takes the cake for being the most pointless of endeavors. Snails are dumb, unpleasant to look at and are about as exciting as an Enya concert. What exactly was the attraction here?

Because its exotic. Think about it, "How many people out there have giant snails for pets?"

Note that was a retorical question.

Having a giant snail as a pet is one thing. Teaching it to do tricks is another.

On Spongebob Squarepants, yeah, maybe, but personally if all you want is something unique, I'm sure there must be hundreds of possible alternatives to something that looks like it's melting all over you. :grinp:
