I Remember A Simpson's Character,

the Crazy Cat Lady,


well here is the UK's answer to her, the self confessed Crazy Snail Lady, 

 40-year-old Pepper Apollo has been fascinated with snails ever since she saw some outside her workplace, 10 years ago, today she is a self-described “crazy snail lady” with 150 shelled gastropods in her care, photographs Crazy Snail Lady,

  “When, you’ve got 150 snails, that puts you into the crazy snail lady category,” Pepper laughingly told 60 Second Docs in the video below, “I started collecting snails about 10 years ago, I found some outside of work, then it kind of snowballed.” 

Pepper Apollo keeps her 150 snails of different breeds in stacked glass terrariums and prepares delicious meals for them every day. She claims that looking after her pets is not labor intensive at all, but that may be because it’s all a labor of love, if you want to see just how obsessed Pepper is with snails, just check out, her Instagram and Facebook, You’ll see nothing but snails, snail eggs and snail keeping guides and like any self-respecting crazy snail lady, she is also very active on snail keeping groups and forums, I doubt that Pepper goes to French restaurants.
