Catalogue Pets

Pets on Habbo were a big hit when they landed in the Hotel. Players are now able to interact with all the pets, by scratching them. Players can also train

all pets up to level 20. Many of the basic pets cost 20 credits, but some can cost more - and some even less. It is not currently possible to trade pets or recycle them.

The original two pets were dogs and cats, traditional household pets. In 2007 Crocodiles were also added. In the beginning, pets were featureless, reacting to basic chat commands and approaching their owner when they enter the room. There was no concept of levelling or training.

Customise

Before any pet is bought, the player is given the option of changing it's name and colour. There is a wide range of colours for every pet, but they cannot be changed after the pet has been bought - unless it is a horse, which can be dyed. There are many colours to dye both it's mane and hair colour, and new hairstyles to be bought.

Accessories

When a player buys any pet, it comes with 'Starter Food'. Starter Food is low in energy, so many players choose to buy other accessories to keep their pets happy, including a water bowl, food, bed and toys. Each pet has different accessories, and they can cost anything from 1 to 6 credits, with food available in bulk packets and pixel substitutes. Pets do not die without food or water, but will be unable to train until they have replenished their energy supply.

Pet Achievements

Pets are another category of achievements. There are 6 badges to collect, all of which are fairly easy. Most of the badges will require a player to log on daily.

Pet Owner

To complete this achievement a player may need credits. What a player must first do is purchase a pet from the shop. Each pet bought will put 1 point towards the total badge count. If someone gifts a player a pet, it does not count towards the badge, but if a player gifts a pet to someone else, that will count.

Pet Level Up

To complete this achievement, a player needs to level up their pets by training them to do tricks, or scratching them. This achievement is less popular as it takes a lot of time and effort, as the levels take longer to advance the higher they are.

Pet Feeding

In this achievement, a player has to feed their pets. It is necessary to feed pets daily in order to complete the achievement quickly. As a pet eats the food, the player will be given points depending on how much they eat. Some pets won't eat certain things - so it is imperative to buy the suitable type of food. It is possible to buy pixel pet food to save credits.

Pet Scratches Given

In this achievement, a player scratch a habbo pet 'X' amount of times until their badge level advances. This achievement also takes a long time to gain, as a player only gets 3 scratches per day.

Pet Scratches Earned

In this achievement a player has to have their pet scratched 'X' amount of times before their badge level will rise. A player can complete this achievement by taking their pet/s to places with them and putting him/her down (e.g. A park or a pet room). As a pet walks around, other people might notice it and give it a scratch. This automatically gives the owner points according to how many times that person scratched their pet.

Lost Monkey

In this achievement, a player must first have downloaded the Lost Monkey app, either from the App Store for Apple products, or the Market for Android products. A player will be asked to connect their Habbo account via their mobile device. As they train or play mini games on Lost Monkey, they will get special prizes on Habbo, for each time they progress to the next level.
