Hi there!

I just saw your post! Your dedication is awesome! You started this post in 2016 and still keeping it updated :O

I try also to get the pets but how are you going to get the event pets? The pets that you could get in all the previous years. As a new player, I don't have a chance to catch them all I think :(

Good luck in your journey! Feel free to add me :D

Great dedication!

I too am after as many pets as I can get, although I did miss a few such as the Water Lycan.

I am happy to own a few rarer pets such as Incy the spider and the cubs from the Big Cat Event.

Good luck with your hunt, hope you manage to obtain them all :)

I enjoyed seeing all your achievements.

I too love pets.

I also go hunt them .. i have all the racoon and a bunch of others that have more than
1 color. the problem arises when you have one in your inventory you can put them in
you poh menagerie but.. if you need to hunt say all the monkeys there is just not
enough room in poh to keep the other 9 and then all the other pets that only allow
one in your bank.

Jagex needs to either fix it so that it wont be a problem having different color pets
that are same species in your bank or put more room in poh menagerie.

But Your achievements are fantastic and again, i enjoyed the read!!!!!

Hi MsGamechick,

Welcome to RuneScape,

Like you, I also have missed some pets from events, I like to think of event pets as bonus pets. The ones you get while trying to get the main ones that are always in the game. Some of these are a privilege to own because they were only available when the event occured, so rather than being disappointed that I cannot get those I missed, I'm grateful and happy I have been fortunate to get these special ones that I do have.

Skilling, Quest, Bossing and Dungeon, Shattered World and other pets that are are a permanent part of the game, and able to be achieved through playing the game are always there to achieve, and if you aim for those then you can have all that are in the actual game, and obtain some special event pets along the way as a bonus. and still have that sense of achievement and accomplishment.

Because pets that are always in the game are available anytime, my main focus is having fun, and it gives that extra special surprise and enjoyment when I am rewarded with one of these pets. It also takes away that grind that you get when you focus on a particular thing, and are frustrated and disappointed when you don't get it as fast as you would like which is why I've had this aim since 2016, and still not achieved all the pets.
It isn't just about getting the pets, it's about the journey on the way; after all, this is a game, so should be fun.

Best of luck in achieving the pets you want, and thank you for your post. I have added you.
Cheers

Hi Stepping Hen,

Best of luck in your aim for as many pets as you can get, and I'm really glad you have some of the rarer pets already.

Congratulations on Incy spider. I imagine it is one of the more rarer pets as it came via a Runecoin package. You reminded me I also have Eek who is from the 2009 Halloween Event so I've added him to my list. .

The cubs were very cute from the Big Cat event. I regret only getting the Tiger and Jaguar cubs, but I'm happy for you and congratulations on having them all.

Best of luck in finding the pets you want, and I hope you're able to get more of those few special rarer ones.
Thank you for your post.
Cheers

Hi Ladyolake,

Thank you for your kind words and sharing your thoughts on pets. I struggle with bank space because I keep every little thing so I truly share your frustration of choosing what to place in the menagerie, or the bank, or to not keep.

I'm impressed with your passion getting all different colours of pets, like racoons, monkeys, and other pets. I also have the same issue with those pets and farm animals as I wanted one of each type of animal, and a male and female of them all as well. I tell myself sometimes I just need to make a choice, so having one of each type now, and all the pet follower animals and birds like raven, Guthix raptor, Zamorak hawk and Saradomin owl, I've chosen to not have, knowing I can obtain them if ever I feel the need.

A solution may be to make pets like different breeds of dogs, colours of cats, raccoon, birds etc able to be stored in an interface like other pets, but I really like that we can physically have the pets in the menagerie as well and would really support expansion of that. I suppose it isn't really something in large demand, and precious programming time is spent on other things that majority of player base would like. I do however, greatly appreciate pets, menagerie, and farm and I'm really happy they're introduced in the game.
