Fun activities
A happy PET STONE © is an active rock. These tricks will bring joy and entertainment to your home.
- Roll: Place your rock at the top of a hill and let gravity do the rest. Make sure nobody's standing at the bottom!
- Play dead: This trick is generally innate. If your PET STONE © hasn't mastered it, leave it on the ground and it will get there quickly.
- Jump: Choose a river or a lake. Throw your PET STONE © so it gracefully bounces across the water. Note: mastery of this trick may vary depending on the shape of your rock.
- Fetch: While few PET STONES © actually fetch an object, you can try with a light ball. But be prepared for it to ignore the object.
Advanced training
A well-trained PET STONE © can be an effective personal defence tool.
- Growling: Teach your PET STONE © to fend off opponents through growling
- Long-range attacks: Throw your PET STONE © with precision at an opponent or a distant
target. Caution: this is reserved for emergency situations only! - Close-range attacks: Hold your PET STONE © firmly in hand to fend off an immediate
threat. But remember: it doesn't like violence.
Health care
Although sturdy, PET STONES © are not immune to health
issues. Here are a few tips to ensure their longevity:
Common problems
-Chipping: If your rock suffers chips, apply a special glue or sealant to repair the damage. Avoid handling the
rough edges without gloves.
- "Depressed stone": If your PET STONE © seems less cheerful (no
longer responding to your games), consider offering it a new environment or decorating it with fun accessories like googly eyes.
Common problems and solutions
PET STONES © are not immune to problems.
Here are a few solutions to keep your PET STONE © happy and energetic:
Lack of motivation: If your PET STONE © refuses to obey, it's often because it's in a bad mood. Playing with it,
giving it some tenderness, and things should return to normal
Weak bond: Spend time interacting with your PET STONE © (playing, walking together) to strengthen your friendship.
Excess weight: Have it play more often to burn off calories from meals and snacks.

Adopting new Pet Stones ©: Growing the rocky family
Adopting new Pet Stones © is an exciting step in the life of any passionate owner.
Adding one or more rocky companions to your collection can enrich your experience and bring a unique dynamic to your "family".
Whether you'd like a smaller Pet Stone © to keep your first rock company, or an imposing piece to complete your "pack", every adoption should be thought through carefully.
Make sure you have enough space and attention to give your new recruits.
Don't forget: each rock has its own personality, its own unique "energy", and may require specific care. Introduce your Pet Stones © to each other gradually to encourage a good relationship.
