Rei found a very nice snail (katatsumuri) and decided to keep “him” as a pet. We’re keeping him in a plastic box, with soil, leaves, twigs, and food (cabbage, carrot skins, and egg shells). He seems to be doing pretty well and moves so fast that we’re considering the possibility of entering him into snail races in the future!!
Here are a few pictures of the snail and Rei:
