The only pets available for your baby to own are at the moment, a goldfish, rabbit, cat, or dog. The 2010 Christmas special pets are Polar Bear and Rudolph. You do not have the ablility to choose the breed (kind) of pet your baby will obtain. Once a random pet has been assigned to the baby of your choice, other players will know you have an animal, it will appear on your card.

What are Pets?[]
Pets are special' items' that your baby and yourself can enjoy and have fun with while playing the game. They are just like real-life pets, however in a virtual way. You may obatain a white cat, semi-brown dog, chestnut rabbit/bunny, or an orange goldfish, as the pet your baby could get. As said, the pet will be completely randomized, therefore you may not choose the pet. You can have more than 1 pet at a time for your game, but a baby can only have 1 pet.
How to obtain a Pet?[]
In December 2009 you could have won a pet for free by completeing the Christmas Tree.
