Revision 9

Overview

Woof & Wow Pets is the island's pet shop, run by Stella. Located in north Starsand Town near the Community Center, the shop sells adoptable pets, pet food, accessories, and pet housing blueprints. Open 8 AM to 10 PM daily. Stella's bedroom is inside the shop, and her personal pets Pudding (a dog) and Peanut (a parrot) can be found around the store.

Store Adoptions

Two pets can be adopted directly from the shop by talking to Stella:

Each adoption includes a free Pet House blueprint, saving you from buying one separately. The shop Scrappy is a brown-and-white puppy, which is distinct from the wild black-and-white dog named Scrappy that roams Starsand Town.

The 404 Kitten Quest

A special free adoption quest for the ragdoll kitten named 404:

1. Talk to Stella at the shop. She gives you a Bamboo Cat Ear Pet Bed recipe.

2. Gather materials: 1 Bamboo Strip and 3 Flannel.

3. Craft the Bamboo Cat Ear Pet Bed at your workstation.

4. Return to Woof & Wow Pets with the crafted bed in your inventory.

5. Talk to Stella while holding the cat bed to adopt 404 for free.

404 is a ragdoll kitten and one of the most popular pets among players. Unlike store purchases, the 404 quest does not come with a free Pet House blueprint, so you will need to buy one separately.

Stray Rescue Path

A third adoption method triggers randomly while you perform activities like fishing or farming. When a stray appears:

1. Feed the stray animal when prompted.

2. Visit Pastelle at the Green Pasture Ranch. She will bathe the animal.

3. Pastelle gives you a Bamboo Cat Ear Pet Bed recipe (1 Bamboo Strip + 3 Flannel).

4. Craft the bed and talk to Pastelle again.

5. The stray automatically reaches Affection Level 3 and can be adopted for free.

Strays adopted through this path do not come with a free Pet House blueprint. You will still need to purchase one from Woof & Wow Pets.

Wild Animal Adoption

Named animals roam freely across the island and can be adopted through a befriending process:

1. Find a wild animal roaming the island. Use the Residents tab on your map to track their movements.

2. Feed it daily and interact with it (pet, greet) to build the relationship.

3. Each animal has food preferences: Favorite foods grant 15 Affection Points, Liked foods give 10, Disliked foods give 0.

4. Raise the relationship to Affection Level 3.

5. At Level 3, the adoption option unlocks.

All Adoptable Wild Pets

Booboo the panda is the only animal that cannot be adopted. She has unique interactions but will always remain in her home area near Cloudrest Lake. See the full pets guide for detailed strategies for each animal.

Pet Housing Blueprints

The shop sells nine pet housing blueprints. Each costs between 100 and 110 Coins. You need at least one Pet House placed at your farm before a pet can move in.

Pet houses, water bowls, and beds are cosmetic options. They all provide the same functionality, so pick whichever style matches your farm aesthetic.

Pet Supplies

Stella

Stella is a former pop idol who retired and moved to the island to run her dream pet shop. She grew up in a warm, loving family and was scouted at age 18 for her distinctive voice and appearance. By 20, she amicably parted ways with her agency after seeing Solara's promotional video for the island, which inspired her relocation. Her cousin is Sylvain, and her childhood best friend is Serena, who served as her personal stylist during her idol career.

Stella is whimsical, full of imagination, and wears her emotions openly. Mornings find her on her balcony rehearsing music for evening plaza performances. She frequents the Hot Springs with Serena during winter afternoons.

Gift Preferences

Loved gifts give 15 Affection Points, liked gifts give 10. See the Gift Guide for the full list.

Tips

• Start the 404 kitten quest early. The crafted bed requires Crafter materials (Bamboo Strip + Flannel).

• Buying Scrappy or Nana from the shop gets you a free Pet House blueprint, saving you 100 Coins. If you adopt through the wild or stray paths, you will need to buy the blueprint separately.

• Feed wild animals daily with their favorite food for maximum affection gain (15 points vs 10 for liked food). Feeding disliked food gives zero progress.

• Use the Residents tab on your map to track where named animals are wandering. They move around constantly.

• Sheep Cheese Block is the most efficient gift for befriending, since five out of eight wild pets list it as their favorite.

• Missing a day of feeding does not reset progress, but consistency is faster.
