This article may contain out-of-date information Needs updating after the Spring 2020 "Play With Pets" Game Update If you know about the current state of affairs, please help keep everyone informed by updating this information. (May 2020)

Originally, Pets in the game were simply pieces of equipment that walked around with you. A few of them granted an Item Card, and some of those also could give a minor boost to your Wizard. Since the May 2010 Advanced Pet Update, the capabilities of Pets have been greatly expanded. All Pets are No Auction, however, they are tradeable. Once a Wizard has reached Level 7 they will receive the Quest Pet Sounds (Retired), which grants access to the Pet Pavilion, Pet Mini Games, and The Pet Hatchery.

Types of Pets
First Generation Pets First Generation Pets haven't been hatched from a combination of parent Pets in The Pet Hatchery, which is why they are First Generation. A First Generation Pet can be: Bought from a Vendor, the Crown Shop, or received from a Gift Card, Obtained from a special Promotion, Dropped by a Creature, or Rewarded by a Quest.	Hybrid Pets A Hybrid Pet is a type of unique Pet that is hatched by pairing two specific species of Pets in The Pet Hatchery. Hybrid Pets are never First Generation and are not obtained from Vendors or Creature drops. Hybrid Pets have a mixture of the Attributes and Abilities (Talents and Derby Abilities) of the parents, making it very unlikely that any two hybrids will ever be the same. Hybrids will never have a definite pedigree as it will vary based on the Abilities a hybrid inherits from its parents.
