Pets such as critters and dogs cannot do anything. The monster can be a critter, passive, aggressive, or even a large monster, but it has to be under 50% health to be caught. The home planet pets are more aimed towards companionship while the space monster pets are more suited for combat.Ī monster can be caught by throwing a Capture Pod at it, which is crafted at the Pet Station. In addition to Starter Pets the player can tame many types of animals and monsters.
Pets are NPCs that follow and usually assist the player in some way. For a list of all pets, see Category:Pets.
