“Invasion” Pet Slime Kit
$34.99
- Something has landed. The “Invasion” habitat places a looming alien saucer above a miniature cityscape… and your pet slime is the extraterrestrial! Activate its hibernation capsule and watch it emerge, ooze downward, and hunt its way through the city until every corner is claimed. An out-of-this-world introduction to one of nature’s most astonishing organisms.
The Amazing Living Slime Pet
Somewhere between alien and animal, Physarum polycephalum is one of the most extraordinary organisms on Earth. This is one single cell large enough to fill a terrarium and intelligent enough to improve human railway designs.
Wake your slime from its hibernation capsule aboard the alien saucer, and watch as it stirs to life and begins its slow, mesmerizing descent. It’s hunting. It’s growing. And it won’t stop until the whole city is covered in slime.
This just-add-water kit contains everything a young scientist needs to study this incredible creature. Rehydrate the habitat, add the capsule, place some food, and let curiosity take over. This living slime is endlessly fascinating to observe: its movement, memory, and problem-solving capabilities are still being actively researched by scientists today. The included booklet contains care instructions as well as information on slime mold biology and their life cycle and a general introduction to several key concepts in the fascinating field of cellular biology.
It’s also the perfect first pet. No fur, no room-filling smell, no complicated care routines. Just the genuine responsibility of keeping something alive, and the reward of watching it thrive.
Accidents and mistakes are an inevitable (and essential!) part of all science. If your slime does not emerge and thrive for any reason, we will send you a replacement sleeping slime hibernation capsule free of charge.
