To want a pet Numtum?

[ObviouslyOblivious]

They are very cute. I'm sure that if they have all their vaccinations and are house trained they'd make great pets.

It's better than HoneyDragon's isn't it :o

Can I get a couple of <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=strawberry+shortcake&hl=en&biw=1365&bih=635&gbv=2&tbm=isch&tbnid=lVBaveRBhCmuhM:&imgrefurl=www.fanpop.com/spots/strawberry-shortcake/images/8536385/title/strawberry&docid=k8x7f4LwNwhcSM&imgurl=images2.fanpop.com/images/photos/8500000/Strawberry-strawberry-shortcake-8536385-335-304.jpg&w=335&h=304&ei=urnRT_3kIobG8gOUtbWNAw&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=874&vpy=302&dur=393&hovh=214&hovw=236&tx=131&ty=111&sig=103566627731314434103&page=1&tbnh=130&tbnw=143&start=0&ndsp=25&ved=1t:429,r:14,s:0,i:181" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">netmums so they can keep each other company while I'm out at work? I don't want one that pines and gets destructive.

It's not advised to get two together EBD. They might bond with each other more than with you. And then there's the humping....

Oh. Do they eat the post?

You can buy them on Amazon

pet Mumsnetter in case the Nethuns want one, in the interests of fairness.

OP me and my dd want one too. She loves it!

I thought it said netmum too :)

I even wrote a response about sparkles and tickers, then read what everyone else had written.

God I read it as pet NetMum too.

Now I see I'm not the only one.

So I'm going to do the laundry...

Everlong, this would be a Nuthun :o

ha ha HoneyDragon.

a snake who likes wine. love it

YANBU any number in particular? I want my own Jargonaise!
I also want one of those turbans that the Cloudbabies wear

I thought it was Netmum too, until I saw the bit about being them being house trained.

I read that as 'to want a pet NetMum'.

Why would you want a pet NetMum? Surely a Mumsnetter would be much more fun? (although, harder to train...and more likely to talk back)

I think I like number 10 WifiNappies :)

YABU - Looking at the pictures, not sure there's much difference between a Numtum and a Nethun.

Also, on a serious note - the sparkliness and twee-ness will make you ill and you'll be back on here with a WWYD as to how to get rid.
Then a whole load of MN'ers will pile in about how you should have thought more carefully in the first place and a Nuthun Nethun Numtum is for life, and not just a damp British 'summer'...
Yes, it will all end in tears.

A 10 will take more feeding and bigger clothes. You need a nice slim 1. Don't get an 8 either!

1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9 10

1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9 10!

I imagine they come as a pack and have to be kept in order

I keep reading it as wanting a pet Netmum

I also read that as a pet netmum what is a numtum ?

there was a thread a few months back where a posters son invented micro mammoths we al wanted one of those
