Line 14:
It first appeared as the [[career reward]] for the [[Natural Science]] career in ''[[The Sims 2: University]]''. A vagely similar plant, simply called the "[[mutant plant]]", appeared in [[The Sims Bustin' Out (console)|''The Sims Bustin' Out'' for console]].
On December 22, 2011, the Cowplant was made available from ''The Sims 3 Store''

===Milking===
After a Cowplant has

[[Toddler]]s cannot interact with the Cowplant. [[Child]]ren cannot take the vine-cake that the Cowplant offers, but may be able to play with it and milk it.
Line 46:
When feeding the plant, Sims give it a swordfish, which, unlike the Leg O' Lamb in ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'', that doesn't cost anything. The plant will display its cake when it has not been fed for 3 days, and Sims will be instantly drawn to it. Unlike ''The Sims 2: University'', the Cowplant will die if it is not fed for 7 days.<ref>https://modthesims.info/archive/index.php?t-464226.html</ref>
Once eaten, a Sim will die, although the plant will often spit the Sim back out if they have bad [[hygiene]], or has the [[Good]], [[Lucky]], [[Unlucky]], [[Brave]]
After a Cowplant has eaten a Sim, other Sims can choose to praise or scold it. They can milk the cow plant which will reset them to day one of their current [[life stage]], and will give them the "Divine Meal" moodlet with +75 mood for 7 days. If the Cowplant is not fed for a week, it will die of starvation and Sims can clean it up. With ''[[The Sims 3: Showtime|Showtime]]'', Sims can choose to throw a mini Cowplant at the stage; this will cost §475.
Line 52:
If ''[[The Sims 3: Supernatural|Supernatural]]'' is installed, the cowplant may eat [[Bonehilda]], but she will usually be spat out afterwards. Sometimes she may become a ghost.
As in ''The Sims 2'', [[toddler]]s cannot interact with the Cowplant, while [[child]]ren are able to play with it, milk it and eat the cake, they are always spat out.
===Related Merchandise===
A statue of a cowplant can be purchased for the same price of the actual product.

The Cowplant returns in the fourth installment of the series with some changes. Rather than being unlocked as a career reward or purchased as an item, the Cowplant is now obtained by collecting a rare berry, which can be planted in a garden or sold for §900. Also, the Cowplant no longer appears in a pot, unless it's placed indoors. As of [[The Sims 4/Patch 99|patch 99]], Cowplants can be named.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Littleshop.poster.jpg|thumb|Audrey II/Junior]]
* The Cowplant is reminiscent of Audrey II, the plant in the 1986 comedy horror musical film ''[[wikipedia:Little Shop of Horrors (film)|Little Shop of Horrors]]'', starring Rick Moranis, Steve Martin, and Levi Stubbs. People on YouTube use the plant for spoofs of the film.{{fact}}
* In terms of color, the Cowplant also resembles the ''Tomeato'' (A crossbreed of the tomato plant and a cow, which grew into a square shaped fruit) from The Dilbert Animated series. However, the Tomeato was designed as a harvestable crop which was easy to stack due to its rectangular shape, while the Laganaphyllis Simnovorii is a carnivorous plant.
* In ''The Sims 2: University'' and ''The Sims 3'', the Cowplant's scientific name (''Laganaphyllis Simnovorii'') is incorrectly capitalized; rules of [[Wikipedia:Binomial nomenclature#Writing binomial names|binomial nomenclature]] state that only the first name should be capitalized, not the second. Thus, the correct name for the plant would be ''Laganaphyllis simnovorii''.
** The genus name is derived from the words [[wiktionary:lagana|lagana]] (Latin for cake) and [[wiktionary:Phyllis|phyllis]] (Greek for foliage), while the species name means
* In ''The Sims 3'', sometimes the Grim Reaper will milk the Cowplant.
* In ''The Sims 3'', the players can watch a Cowplant eating a florist in Got Garden? channel on [[television]].
