Rock Eating Pets?

Make / Mod some rock eating pets. It goes around your fortress eating rocks.

However you need to destinate the rocks that it can eat.

Edit: Maybe something like a slow moving slug?

Gelatinous Cube?
Cruising down the corridors, melting down those goblin hoards,
Just make sure to block the doors, before it eats our own food stores.
Gelatinous Cube,
Munching on those elvish peeps watch it as it slides and seeps,
Ozzing up from chasm deeps, dissolving kittens as it creeps
Gelatinous Cube
Purging filth from underhalls just don't trip, or slip, or dare to fall,
One day they will kill us allllllll!

Yeah. Rock Eating pets sound kind of stupid. Just build a catapult and put that peasant to work if you have extra.

I'd just like to mod rock-eating dwarves. Something like this might make it possible.

I appreciate the compliments. Now if only we actually had some kind of slime in the game as opposed to a least a dozen kinds of damn monkey(dwarves must be experts on primate classification). I mean braciation (moving through trees) isn't even in (yet) but we have more marmots than I even knew existed. Of course this means we will have the obligatory slime-man but that would be cool too. Just imagine waves of normally docile trash slimes flooding through your fortress dissolving dwarf and masterworks alike (maybe only some would damage stone, flesh, or metal.) I could see lots of room for carrion eating creatures (or eating creatures period) especially after large battles.

Dwarfy McDwarf casts (when magic comes around) Summon Oteug Swarm!
The Refuse Pile #43 turns into a swarm of oteugs!
The oteug consumes the goblin x24
The oteug consumes the dwarf! x200

Oops.
