I find him cute actually, makes the morning tea sessions more enjoyable, a constant reminder of the impermanence of all things...

He looks quite charming, a fine tea companion you've got there.

I think I just became obsessed with these. I love things like this that really add something to the tea experience. I am going to have to show my friend the octopi. She crochets and loves tea and would probably love the idea of making something like that.

I am excited by the idea of getting some of these, though I am going to do more research.

Tea Pets are extremely addictive! BEWARE!

I've got around a hundred of them and keep finding more I just can't live without. It is fun though, to choose a tea pet based on who is participating in your tea session.

My little turtle named Speedy. I've been pouring tea on him and now I'm starting to see some cracks. Anyone else staining their celadon pets?

Nice turtle... I hope speedy don't run away...

Yeah, I'm bathing (with tea) my celadon ox too... becoming more greenish with cracks... but not really big difference compared to when it was brand new.

Just guessing... might be a little disrespectful to use this as a tea "pet".
