The Pet Rock Buddy.

This one is sure to bring back the memories. (if you are old enough to remember them)

I am not sure about you but I remember having one of these (minus the legs) as a pet when I was a kid. Here is my take on the Pet Rock.

A little history on the Pet Rock…

A pet rock was a novelty item that gained popularity in the 1970s, created by Gary Dahl as a humorous and satirical solution to the hassle of traditional pet ownership. It consisted of a smooth, ordinary rock placed in a small box with breathing holes, accompanied by a tongue-in-cheek instruction manual detailing how to care for the "pet." The concept was intended to poke fun at the responsibilities and inconveniences of caring for a live animal, offering an absurdly low-maintenance alternative. Despite its comical premise, the pet rock became a quirky fad and a symbol of absurdist consumerism.

Thank you so much for supporting me. Every little bit helps and keeps me wanting to create more and more. I try my hardest to publish at least 1 new model a week. Some times I am not able to do this due to normal life. Thank you for understanding and the support! You all rock!
