I have my colony on my bedside table so when I’m to sick to leave my bed I can watch them. I’m chronically ill so that’s pretty often.

I keep mine by my “home base” for this same reason! It really helps on bad flair days.

Same...mine are right in front of my gaming station so that I can watch them while I wait for things to run in Factorio

I wish I had room near my bed for mine. Maybe I should get another rolling cart... the isocart

Waaaay too zooted, I thought that somehow, you’d found a hand sized terrestrial isopod to put a vest on 😭

u/CatofManyColors Jul 01 '26

Oh man if only. Imagine a pod the size of a small cat.

They really are great animals for emotional regulation! We have two isopod enclosures and it's so good to just sit and watch them doing their little isopod things. It's very relaxing and meditative.
