Pet Adoption Agency's
Mascot

This is where you can adopt a virtual pet, whether
it is domestic, wild or exotic. Virtual pets are easy
to care for; they are clean, don’t need feeding or exercise. Many people can adopt the same pet, the difference will be
the name they choose.

Adopting a Pet

To adopt a virtual pet simply state in a conversation thread at the bottom, what pet you would like to adopt and the name you will be giving it. I will then post the coding for that pet, with your chosen name for you to copy and paste to your Space.

Please note: The coding will not work if you have not changed your Space to GuideML
