Mini Squishable Bananenschnecke

It’s absurd how much personality this little gastropod has—the squish factor is perfect for stress-squeezing during work calls. I’ve had mine on my desk for a week and it’s already the thing visitors pick up first.

The name alone cracks me up every time I look at it, and the West Coast gastropod nod is such a fun detail. It’s absurdly soft in the hand and sits perfectly on my desk as a tiny, cheerful companion. I just keep finding excuses to pick it up again.

I wasn’t expecting the slug to feel this plush and weighty—it’s perfect for hugging during a work break. The little face is way more expressive in person than in the photos, and it’s already my desk’s main character.
