Real footage01 / Reach out
Touch, then watch.
A tap or gentle stroke can play a matching filmed reaction. A cat and a dog do not share every gesture or sound.

Real footage
A virtual dog doesn’t answer like a cat.
Pet their head, invite them to play, or simply spend a quiet moment together. Dogs and cats respond in their own ways, and each pet has its own available actions.
Life together
The small things feel big.
Every pet has responses that suit its nature and a space of its own.

Bunnies, ferrets, or a fox with wings and nine tails: describe it, pick a design, and it moves in.

Their own rooms.

How to adopt a virtual pet
- 01
Choose an available pet
The adoption catalog shows pets currently eligible to take home. Select one there, then enter its own space.
- 02
Or create your own
Bring photos or a description to Studio, review a proposed look and confirm the credits it takes.
- 03
Discover what it can do
Enter its own space and discover what this pet can do.
The experience follows the pet
Species-appropriate reactions
A dog may wag its tail; a cat may purr. Each pet responds with the actions and sounds available to it.
Photos as a starting point
Photos can guide a new companion’s appearance. The result is a new companion, not the original animal brought back.
No invented movement
You can choose from the actions this pet knows today.
Frequently asked questions
Should I choose a virtual pet toy, a game or an AI pet?
A handheld toy gives you something to hold, a pet game offers care routines and mini-games, and an AI pet can respond to what you write. Our guide to virtual pet toys and apps explains the different ways to spend time with them and what to check before choosing.
Can I adopt a virtual dog or a puppy?
Yes, you can adopt a dog from the catalog. For a puppy, make your own dog in Studio: photos or a description guide its look, and you can choose the puppy look. You review the look and cost before confirming. A dog answers in writing and with dog sounds, not a human voice. See what a virtual dog does here.
Is it free to adopt a virtual pet?
Yes. With the free plan you can adopt one ready-made companion from the pets available in the catalog; if one needs a plan, its card says so. Making your own pet from photos uses credits, and you see the cost before you confirm. Details are on pricing.
How do I raise and care for my virtual pet day to day?
Visit whenever you like: stroke them and watch a filmed reaction, type to them and read their replies, with their own animal sounds. You can switch rooms, give small gifts, put on an accessory or teach a new trick; accessories and new tricks use credits. You can also play with your virtual pet online, right in your browser.
Can I keep my pet on screen while I work?
Yes. Keep them in a window beside your work with the free Mac app, or in a browser window. See what a screen pet can be.
Is a pet companion good for an older parent?
It can be gentle company: they hold to talk and their pet answers. Read what it can and can't do on AI companion for seniors.
Can I make a dance video from my pet’s photo?
Yes. The AI pet dance generator turns one cat or dog photo into a vertical dance video. You can download it without creating a companion first. Each video costs US$9.90, shown before checkout. You can request a refund if your video fails.
Can I make a one-off video message from a photo?
Yes. Use the AI talking photo maker to turn your own photo and words into a short vertical video with captions. Sign in for one free video a day.
