Today is Pet Rock Day, offering the perfect opportunity to pamper and spoil the special stone in your life.
Launched in the 1970s by advertising executive Gary Dahl, the pet rock was an antithesis to those living pets in need of regular care. It did, however, come with a mean “attack” mode. For a mere $3.95 people could adopt their very own rock, supplied on a bed of hay in an well-ventilated box. Like all things, pet rocks are more expensive these days, but you could always catch a wild one for free – just remember that undomesticated rocks may be more difficult to handle
Pet Rock Day, offering the perfect opportunity to pamper and spoil the special stone in your life.
WikiHow shows you to care for your pet rock.
Pick a rock. It can be any kind, anywhere. It’s best to have a specific rock in mind. Be sure to look and see what breed it is, also see if you want a smooth rock, or a bumpy rock. You can find different rocks at the park, your garden, etc.
Determine whether its size is convenient for your purpose. If it’s for a traveling companion, pick a small one. If it’s for a friend, a larger size is best. But you can adjust to what you want. If you want one that’s medium, or extra small, you can pick it! Its up to you. It’s your special rock.
Wash it with soap and water. See Bathing for detailed instructions. Congratulations! You now have a pet rock!
