Pet Society

I gave away the autumn faerie shirt, and got the shelf! Yippee! Still looking for acorn lamp.

Edit: Gave away some other stuff, but I still have faerie shoes, faerie window, and cute blue ribbon (hair) to give away.

Someone was asking me about leveling in Pet Society the other day, so I'm pasting in the tips I sent to her in case anyone is interested.

- Visit everyone on your friends list every night (and do the hug or dance or whatever). This gives you experience points (5) and coins (up to 30 depending on some things about the pet you visit). The more friends you have the more you make! This is another reason friend requests to the GoPets people they'll probably accept, since a lot of games on Facebook, the more friends playing, the better you do.

- Feed hungry pets! You get 17 xp and 2 coins each time you feed, whether you use a cheap food or an expensive one--so you want to use the cheapest food possible (5 gold) and just keep feeding until the pet is full. If you don't have hungry pets on your friends list at the moment, visit the pets you find in the coffee shop, you will usually find some hungry ones.

- You get xp from almost any activity, fishing, getting trophies, etc. But you only get 17 xp per trophy, no more than feeding a hungry pet, so you don't have to go out of your way to get trophies. I check which ones I'm close to, see if I can get one easily.

- I recently started doing the races, you can do 10 a day. Costs nothing to race, you get 30 gold for every win--more coins to buy food to feed hungry pets and level. I couldn't do it at first, but now I win a few races.

I haven't read much on the topic myself, so if anyone else has other leveling tips please post!

I posted this on the Pet Society Facebook page, no reaction so far, LOL -

Several incidents of back injury have been reported since the Mayor sent everyone a massive snow globe holiday gift. Here are some reactions gathered by our Pet Society correspondent on the street - "What was he thinking! Picked that damn thing up and just *ooouch*" "A simple card would have sufficed, preferably one with a few coins in it!" "First he ignores our plea for health care reform, and now this! Time for a new mayor!" But more often the pets our reporter talked to just giggled.

Ahahaha.I hate that thing really,It's way too big so i have no place for it X_X

I really hate hollidays on this game lol.So many cool items i want to buy but not enough gold.The limited time thing is killing me

I still need to get 2 branches for my snowmen,plus the candy cane light,the wintery candelabra thingy no chance for the sleigh and not to mentin the cute penguin plushie from the boxes.GAh

Right now my main focus is still just to get year round decor for my rooms. It's my view with any game when it comes to holidays, not to get too obsessed with stuff I'm only going to use for a short time. That's something to think about later, when I'm high level and have nothing else left to do, LOL.

I'm still hoping for a second acorn lamp (thank you to Margo for sending one!) And for any Japanese themed items I can't get in the store, like the bonsai. If anyone wants to trade, let me know!

Oh great, there is a penguin plushie in the boxes? Sigh, which one? I have bought many of the biggest box but keep getting frogs. Now I like frogs just fine but I don't need 4 or 5 of them.

Supposedly the expensive mystery box, but I think it's just a penguin you already have Margo? Scroll down and you'll see a little penguin in the mystery box list --

I'm going to have to forgo mystery boxes for a while. The sale items just changed to CLEARANCE sale items, and some of them I definitely want, maybe even in multiples, and it sounds like I won't be able to get them after the sale is over (I guess some of this stuff might eventually show up in mystery boxes, but as you know it's hardly a sure thing!) So I'll have to spend all my coins getting clearance items, no just get what you want decorating projects or mystery boxes for a couple weeks..

This is funny!

Me too! I have so many things that I need to get, and some within the limited time, I hope I have more coins!!

By the way, I see that we can sell our stuffs, but how to view stuffs that others are selling?

The "Sell" thing is just selling it back to the game, like recycling was in GoPets. (Pet Society does have a trade forum, but it's messy, you have to friend the people you trade with, and they have problems with scammers like everything else, with something huge like like this game, I'm sure it's safer just not to get into it.) The Pet Society recycling doesn't give you coins, just recycling credit, but it takes forever to recycle enough to get to the prize boxes.

That "Sell" thing is one key to making more money. If you plant flowers, for instance, it costs 200 gold for the seeds, and the flowers sell for 208 (one kind sells for 230). So if you plant and resell all your flowers every day, you can make a good amount of gold. I have my front garden for flowers, and my back garden is the orchard, all trees. Some trees the fruit sells for 65 gold, and others it's 85 gold. You don't know how often you will get fruit, though, but over time the trees pay for themselves. Veggies are kind of a crap shoot because they can rot if they've been in the ground too long (not a set time, it's random) so I just don't bother with those. Cooking is also a way to make profit, each recipe says right on it how much gold you will make (sell price minus cost).

I'd like to set up a Pet Society trade that's just friends so it's safe, but I haven't gotten much response when I post what I'm looking for and what I have to give away in this thread. I think they're aren't enough Pet Society players coming by this forum to have a chance to find someone who really needs what I have, or has what I need, to complete decor or whatever. I've tried posting on Facebook directly, but the notices grow old pretty fast, and I don't want to post over and over because it sounds like I'm begging for stuff and that's not the point--I'm really just looking for some kind of trade venue.

I didn't know about this, these information are so useful, Thanks!^^ I went to the forum and read a thread, the title is "Pet Society - Frequently Asked Questions - Q1, Q3 & Q4 Updated!" One of the question there is "How do I make my pet poo?" Emm, my question is, what is the purpose for the poo, and why do we need to make our pet poo? Sorry for the silly question!

You don't! Some people like the poo, strangely enough. They like the rainbow poo and the golden poo better than the regular, but even the regular poo people will have out like it's a collectible. Personally I don't want any stinky poo in the house, LOL. If you want to see what the rainbow and golden poo looks like, Aibopals' pet has them both, they're all the way to the left side of the first room.

For those of you who do want your pet to poo, keep the health and happiness bars over 50% and the cleanliness bar under 50%. If you have 3 poo in your house already, you can't get any more. So if you have 3 regular poo on display, you are eliminating your chance to get the rainbow or golden poo (which is just random).

If you don't want poo, keep the cleanliness bar up as much as possible! But if your pet does leave you a little gift anyway, LOL, just click on it and you get a coin.

News from November, I didn't know this --

Thanks for your reply, Asynjur! ^^ I was very curious of how does it look like when a pet poo, so I actually made my pet poo on purpose to satisfy my curiosity, and now I know!

About the news, I'm a bit concern of one of the comment there, saying that EA is money hungry. This remind me of what is happening in Foopets. The price of some items there has increased a few times from its original price. Eg. Mother FooShoe background was cost 1500FG, now it cost 6250FG. That's a lot! Well, we'll see..

Hmm, no I don't think that I have that one -- at least I can't find it in my house. I will buy a few more boxes I guess. I did finally get a black duck instead of a frog and 2 items that I have no interest in that sell for 999. Before selling them back I guess I should see if anyone else wants them - a pink rock star wall sticker and a school locker. The locker is okay since it is green, but I just don't know what room to put it in. The sticker has no interest for me.

I do sometimes sell back 999 items for a chance at 2 more boxes--some of the items seem more appealing than others.
