Hi! Name's Pancho. I'm here to tell you about the pets...but...you don't happen to have any sardines on ya do you?
*sniffs*
No? -_-. Oh well! It was a thought.
Back to the shop!
Well, first stage is an egg
. At this point, you really don't know what the pet will be. You just know what color(s) it'll be. When you order your egg, you'll need to select a gender for it and name it. Don't ask how they make sure your egg comes out the gender you want, I don't want to know!This stage lasts for up to a week.
The second stage is the newborn
. You still don't know what species your pet will be, but you can see the beginnings of it's markings (if it'll have any). If you look close, you'll be able to tell what color eyes your pet has. This stage lasts for up to a week.
The third stage is your infant. At this point you'll be able to tell what species your pet is. They won't be able to see well and they'll be pretty awkward at this point, so be careful with them?
(From left to right.)
Cat, bat, bunny, and bear.
This stage lasts for up to a week.
The fourth stage is the child. By this time, his or her eyes are wide open and it's obvious what species they are. They'll be able to move around and wear some clothing items. The fourth stage is the adult for bats.
(From left to right.)
Cat, bat, bunny, and bear.
This stage lasts for two or three weeks. Final stage for bats.
The fifth stage is the last one. The adult. They can wear clothes and are more likely to attract ladybugs and recieve giftboxes.
(From left to right.)
Cat, bunny, and bear.
This is the final stage.
Cats
We love fish, bits of string, rolling around in a fresh basket of laundry, and of course snuggling with people who are allergic to us. I can't speak for all cats, but I'm pretty laid back. It's not that I'm lazy...I just like to do my own thing. I might squish a ladybug if it's left with me too long though. I can't help it. They're little, shiny, and they crawl.
Bats
These guys are wacky. Nice. Just a little off. These are the non-vampiric kind btw. They love fruit, but they eat bugs too. You'll wanna keep an eye on your pet bat if you want to have any ladybugs. You have to claim ladybugs fast.
They also don't usually like dressing up. I think it's their wings...or those ears *snort*.
Bunnies
Bunnies enjoy most everything. They won't eat fish or...well any kind of meat though. They love fresh vegetables and things they can gnaw to wear their teeth down. They're pretty smart too. They won't hurt the ladybugs either. They just let em sit there until they either fly away or are claimed.
Bears
Living teddy bears. They love honey and the occasional cup of tea. These little fellas are the most sensitive pets here. They can't stand to be left alone and they're smart enough to buy things by themselves. Normally, they won't do that, but if they're ignored long enough, they start to buy things to amuse themselves.
Keep a eye out for your pet to find a ladybug. These are what the pets here use for cash. Some pets (cats and bats) like to hunt these and you'll have to watch them more carefully or you'll hardly ever have any ladybugs.
When you see an exclamation mark over your pet, come and post in the thread that you have one. Any ladybugs that aren't claimed just fly away.
Ladybug items are in the works. There'll be a special section for those when they're released ^_^.
Apart from watching for ladybugs, you also need to watch for giftboxes and letters. Giftboxes are random...you could find anything in one biggrin and letters are gifts from the shop, usually custom made for your pet.
When you see an exclamation mark over your pet, come to the thread and claim your prize ^_^.
1) The pet ^_^. You can dress them up any way you want...and all the items are available in 10 different colors. Apart from the angelic and demonic items.
2) The garden it lives in. You can decorate this any way you want! Like the pet accessories, they're all available in 10 different colors (apart from the lunar and sun pillars). Sometimes there are premade gardens for sale too ^_^.
3) The pet's name, owner, date of birth, the items it's wearing, and how many ladybugs it has...the box on the left. No, your other left. Yeah. I know. It's hard to find the cert on this xP
4) Event notices are above your pet's head. When you see this, look to see what's been added to your pet's garden. Then, come post in the thread to claim it before it goes away! (In this one a giftbox has been added. See. Behind the orange roses in the left corner. Right above the ball.) Also, if you see a speach bubble with a heart in it, that just means your pet's very happy ^_^.
5) A large white exclamation means this pet is no longer updated and has gone back to stage one (for the example it's not gone to stage one). Along with the white exclamation, the date the pet was "suspended" will be shown in the lower right hand corner.
This only happens if the owner has been banned, blacklisted, or hasn't been active for over a month and a half.
If it's only because the owner hasn't been active, all they have to do is come back and ask for the pet back (it'll go back to the stage it was before).
If they've been banned or blacklisted, then the pet will be either sold or given away and they can't have it back.
