    Link doesn't work 😭

    Please tell me you put a gate up over the staircase there, and just let them drive around to their heart's content.

    I miss my rats. Two out the three would have loved this. They would have been an absolute menace though.

    ok hear me out, it's in a spider bot body the size of a medium dog, and you've got treat emitting stations all around the house inside and outside so it goes on patrol
