Pet-rock adoption crate

Give a found pebble a home, a bed and a name

A shipping crate for the lowest-maintenance pet there is. Breathing holes run along both sides (the rock does not need them, which is the joke), a low bed rail keeps it from rolling about, and PET ROCK is stencilled on the front like freight. Children find a pebble on a walk, paint a face on it and give it a name. It also makes a good office secret-Santa gift.
