Dottie does zumba??? 😳🙄😂

It all happened one day...
She suddenly started this chain of... 'behaviour'...
I didn't have my camera with me
So, the video was shot on my mobile phone
This video has the most... errr... action!
For fans who want more Dottie-in-action,
I have two more videos at the bottom

From 'research', I found many who have also observed similar behaviour with their pet snails!
So, it's not such an unusual thing, it seems
But I couldn't find any proper explanation about what it is all about
Some say it's in response to an itch!
I actually thought she was constipated!!
Hmmm, can't be since she eats so much fibre....

Anyway, since I don't want to just have a one video post,
here are more photos of Dottie from Day 1...
When she came to stay with us
Until her latest photo shoot!

One of her first shots!
That's how big she is
She can fit neatly on your baby finger nail!
Still can
Even though she's grown a bit

That's Dottie exploring the newspaper
Trying to read the advertisements... 🙄
Initially, I named her Dottie as she has lovely dots on her shell
After that I realised 'Dottie' fits her as she's a dot from afar...

That's the veg she came with... four-angled beans
then I adopted her!
Or as they say, SHE adopted us!
Besides, I didn't want to just drop her on some greens outside
How inhumane! 😥

That was back in April
When the whole covid lockdown just started
So I thought, why not
This is her home, by the way
She lives in a rectangular plastic container
and now that sits within another bigger round container
that we call her bungalow!

She hibernates a lot!
Scared me at first... she slept like a couple of days
And her favourite pastime when awake?
She races around the edge of her home/s
Either, iether... both!

Favourite foods?
Only cucumber, or maybe zucchini
Nothing else!
I tried delicious mango... NO!
Banana.... NO!
Lettuce? NO!
Apple, other fruits... other veggies....
Even the four-angled beans she came with...
NO!
She just loves cucumber!

And she knows the skin is good for her... 😊😏
Eats holes in them!

Sis picks her up
And lets her roam about on her fingers, and arm

Not me though
I still pick her up via cucumber slices!
See that snail slime trail on sis' arm?!
Dottie... leaving her mark! Hehe...

Okay, two more videos below...
Shot at the same time as the first one above
Enjoyyy!

This was actually the first video
when she was on the floor of her 'bungalow'

Then she made her way up the 'wall'
Zumba-ing all the way...
Heavens!
Some parts of it, I think she's about to tear her shell off!

_{NOTE: No Dottie was hurt in the making of these videos and/or photos}
