Molluscs and Cephalopods In Home

I have a bunch of snails in my home, he said. I would not know what to do I replied. What have you done? So far, I am classifying then into categories red. I have squid, octopus and gastropods too, he said, for fun. I was shocked and horrified, wondering about his house. Are they salt water, fresh water or land beings? I queried. They are frightening, scary, and they chase my mouse. I saw one run past and It was clammy and harried. Let’s have tea at my house I promptly suggested. As an oversized octopus climbed out of his kitchen sink. I am going crazy he replied. I feel I am being tested. What is your opinion? What do you think?

I think this guy needs help if an octopus is crawling out of his kitchen sink! I put a snail in my fish tank one time and before long I had a fish tank full of snails. They multiply faster than rabbits, and that's saying a lot!

One snail by herself became a snail farm? Wow!
