Moozies and Sneeps
A slime, a mollusk, or something else? Two species of critters leave these questions unanswered to this day, but most sipperkind can agree that both are a staple to any self-respecting household. Their natural habitat, however, are deep forests abundant in mushrooms. Out of all the slimes, these two species are thought to be the most closely related.
Commonly known as slime milk, this substance is flavored by whatever the moozy has recently eaten and has vast culinary uses (the texture is like condensed milk) including creamers for caffeinated drinks, cheeses, spreads for toast or chips, and much more. Even wild moozies tend to be calm and kind, although the mushrooms that make up their natural diet can make the flavors and effects of their slime milk unpredictable.

Moozies are capable of expressing emotion through their false eyes by making them appear closed, wide, squinted, etc. It's unknown if sneeps are unable to do the same, or if they're simply always too lazy or tired to bother.

The smaller ones are sneeps, whose shells sit atop their heads in a way that resemble sheep or ram horns. Caustic slime bubbles out from these same shells, melting nearly any material for the sneep to then absorb and gain sustenance from. They're very placid, content spending most of their time sleeping on piles of the house's trash, dissolving and consuming it so little to no waste remains. When diluted, their slime can be used as an effective disinfectant for sterilizing medical and cooking equipment.
