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'' as premium content in the Killer Classics set; it also returns in ''[[The Sims 4]]'', where it becomes a plant that must be grown. The Cowplant was added to ''[[The Sims Social]]'' on Halloween 2011, where it was sold for 500 [[The Sims Social#Currency\|Social Points]]. ==The Sims 2== Line 27: ===Milking=== After a Cowplant has ~~its~~eaten ~~lunch (~~a ~~Sim)~~sim, members of the owner's household can milk the plant. The "milk" is actually a life-extending drink similar to the [[Elixir of Life]], extending the Sim's lifespan by five days. Unlike the Elixir of Life, children can drink it. Drinking the "milk" is sometimes referred to as drinking that Sim, and doing it gives the drinker a special [[memories\|memory]]. Sims may have a [[Wants and fears\|want]] to "drink" a certain Sim that they are unhappy with. A Sim still can be resurrected if the cow been milked. The Ghost of the Sim that has been milked may gets angry and will haunt the Sim who drank 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]] or [[Daredevil]] [[Trait (The Sims 3)\|traits]]. The Cowplant will not eat babies, toddlers, children or imaginary friends that are turned real, but will eat [[teen]]agers and older. If the Sim does die, their [[Ghost#The Sims 3\|ghost]] will be purple, as if they had starved. Unlike ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'', the Grim Reaper will ''always'' come for these types of deaths. 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 player can also buy Cow Plant themed Spring Rides or Arcade Machines. There is also an option to dress up as a Cow Plant during Spooky Day. {{clr}} Line 101: ==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 '"Sim eater'". * 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]].
