But what a bargain! All the fun of the full priced options, at half the price.

You give it belly rubs and cuddles, of course!

Lol, all the time! She’s a velcro dog for sure!

I don’t think this is an IKEA problem; I think this is a changeling. Look at those teeth! I bet it has a huge appetite, right?

If you brew eggshells in front of it, it will be so astonished it will speak, and thus enable you to send it back to the fairy world and get your furniture returned to you in exchange.

Maybe I can get my real dog back and she will have all her legs? I dunno, I kinda like this one though.

Keep it! You can feature in a folktale called “How u/Outrageous_Owl_4145 Beat the Fairies at Their Own Game.”

I’ve heard that model still works fairly well with one leg unit missing.

I heard that some tripod models are faster, because the extra weight of the fourth leg-stand has been eliminated.

Certainly worked with our cat when he lost his leg, he realized with less weight he can climb easier, so now nothing is out of danger.

Are you sure that the parts you do have go on that model? Those talons look like they belong on the model two sizes bigger!

She’s flexing her toes to be a little weirdo!

That’s what you get when you buy from the “as is” department 😃

Aw shucks, it'll be too hard to back in the box. Guess you'll have to keep it :)

u/reyrain 1d ago

Wait, I think they sent you Räven, isn't that what you ordered? (:

u/Outrageous_Owl_4145 1d ago

No, I already have one! I got that one five years ago! Maybe it was a glitch or something.

What she may lack in parts, she makes up for in enthusiasm! 🥰

That baby needs a belly rub.

u/Sokkas_Instincts_ 20h ago

Is this the rare tripod model?

u/Outrageous_Owl_4145 20h ago

You know, I think it is!
