Breanni Says:

While roaches repulse most people, this one is pretty neat. When you’re on the move, he flies behind, landing whenever you come to a halt. My cockroach tags along with my undead shadow priest. She seemed the appropriate choice, since her rotting flesh has a tendency to attract bugs. Yuck.

In a recent patch, Blizz made some changes to this pet: they made it bigger.

Because that's what we all want -- bigger cockroaches. :-(

Occassionally, this pet will also fly up into the air a little. A great pet for pally tanks, as both can survive just about anything!

Odd how this pet only has a 39% liked rating, but in the collection stats it is the most collected! ROACHES EVERYWHERE!! D:

Every pet collector collects as many pets as they possibly can, doesn't mean we have to like every single one of them. Personally, this cockroach is one I prefer to stay hidden under the floor boards!
For any pet that comes from the opposite faction, make the effort to travel to a neutral auction house, and save yourself on the added expenses usually associated to your faction auction house.

I actually find this pet rather cool. When I tried it out, I was surprised how real its movements were from legs to antennae and how it would catch up by fluttering. Only gripe is as I travel, I see its revealed behind more than any other part of it which isn't an ideal view. ;p

When those crazy engineers finally invent the nuclear bomb, and consequently blow up Azeroth, these universally hated little guys will have the last laugh.

I happen to own two of this pet. One on my Human Warlock the other on my Blood Elf Hunter. I still can't stand this pet. I only bring him out when showing off my pet collection to people.

If you eat a Magic Eater (fished from Dalaran Sewers) you have a chance to turn into a Wisp, a Green Whelp, a Basilisk or a COCKROACH! *awesome* I love running around as a Cockroach and having my Raptor chase me. Or you can "swarm" with your Cockroach pet! The effect is random and fun for those easily amused.

Journal Entry 1

"I collected my first specimen today; a Cockroach. Old Jeremiah Payson sits in an alcove under the banks in the grand Undercity's common area. He's taken to collecting cockroaches. Amazing little critters, and loyal he says as well. I bet the plague could have consumed all of Azeroth and these guys would have survived to tell the tale.

Now if only I could keep mine off my shoulder long enough for me to leave my sanctuary without him for once..."
