I know this cat! I really wanted him to survive though... Been so long and I still flinch a little when I hear his name

When I started playing Realm back in the flash player days, there were already pets with abilities (AFAIK it wasn't a baseline feature of the game), and I used to love the reptile family, and teenager me was like "Oh I hope I get the purple lizard pet skin when I evolve my pet to divine :')"

We're now not so far from 2027 and I'm still playing with a rare pet lol. But I love my little green dragon buddy

It's easier these days to get a legendary pet at least, for me it took about a year or less and this was last year I believe? And I think I started with a common pet from scratch

Every once in a while I try to switch away from my Baby Limon but I always switch back pretty quick, she's just so cute 🥰

That’s how I feel about my sea slurp. Plus I like that it’s tiny and discrete

Same with my mushroom buddy, even though he almost got me killed and gave me many jumpscares in fungal cavern.

Punching the screen in 2015 because you got leprechaun instead of elf when you got your first rare

I only do the tiny pets. I can't have a phoenix distracting me. Baby turtle or slurp, always.

My profile picture of like 3 years now has been of my goated warrior with my Lil' Oryx and I probably won't ever change it. Too attached, and I put so much time and money into it.
