It was a joke.
The main product wasn't actually the rock by the instruction book that came with it which treated the rock as a real animal.
'Course this went over people's heads as the rock became popular and people bought it for the rock rather than the funny book it came with.

They're the best pets ever, that's why they were a thing.

Meh, I disagree. We got two and they got loose in the back yard. Now the property is full of them.

Jeeze, I tell ya, I had a pet rock once. My ex-wife, she called animal protective services on it. Joke's on her, though. That thing died weeks earlier!

I miss the lighthearted chuckle of gag gifts like this and not actual scams or shitty products.

We use to have a gag gift store called San Diego in my local mall about 30 years ago. You can't have things like that anymore because the "NO FUN" crowd is determined to make life a miserable nightmare for everyone!!!FACT!!!
