Gorgeous New Fish in Pet Society
Published December 28, 2009 Fishing 18 CommentsTags: Pet Society, Pet Society Fish List, Pet Society fishing, Pet Society New Fish
There are some gorgeous new fish in the pond. These are so new that they’re not even mentioned yet in the official Pet Society blog or in the forum. Big thanks to Janna for sending in the pics. We’re not sure how many other fish there are in this latest release, but here are four kinds. They’re all realistic fish, as opposed to something like the Cupcake Fish, which is pure fantasy. Here’s a side-by-side comparison of the new Pet Society fish and their real counterparts.
Indian Glassy Fish I love how transparent and delicate this is. |

Mahi Mahi Mahi Mahi is fairly common in restaurants, and it’s delicious. Who knew it was so mean looking? |

Rainbow Fish The Pet Society version almost looks like a flag or a kite. Love it! The real version, not so much. |

Royal Gramma I’ve never heard of this fish before. It looks almost exactly like the real version. I wonder if the Pet Society artist is big into marine life, or if drawing fish is something new to her. |

Tips for Catching the New Fish
Janna says that she caught all of these using apples and the Pro Fishing Gear. Here’s a pic of her pet Violet with her fish. She has so many that she could open up her own Sea World!
Life Lessons from Pet Society Fishing
Published December 27, 2009 Fishing 11 CommentsTags: Pet Society, Pet Society fish, Pet Society Fish List, Pet Society fishing
Do you ever feel like Pet Society is trying to teach you something about life? My pet Sushi learned some valuable lessons recently while fishing with the King Burger.
This fish is tiny! How did it eat the King Burger?
Lesson 1: You may not get exactly what you want, but you can have fun trying.
Lesson 2: You can still look really cute even when struggling.
Lesson 3: Don’t waste your King Burger at the pond.

Holiday Tip from Pet Society Anonymous

Happy holidays, everyone! If you’re like me, you’re probably busy getting together with family. This can be a fun time or a maddening time. Keep your cool by remembering this:
Free Snow Globes in Pet Society
Published December 24, 2009 Playfish 11 CommentsTags: Pet Society, Playfish
There’s only one word to describe this giant snowglobe: Wow!
Actually, here are three more words: huge, pretty, and FREE. That’s right, just log into Pet Society any time during December 24-25 Greenwich Mean Time and you’ll receive this as a thank-you gift from Playfish.
Here’s the message from the mayor. I’ve highlighted the important part:
Deadline: Dec 25 Midnight Greenwich Mean Time
Just when is this in your time zone? For people living west of London, the deadline comes a lot earlier than midnight. You can figure out when your deadline is if you remember when your game changes over to a new day. For me, in the West Coast of the U.S., it’s 4 p.m.
Here’s a sampling of cities. (Sorry for being North American-centric, but I’m a human, not a clock and other time zones confuse me.)
Chicago: Collect gift any time before Dec 25 6 p.m.
Denver: Collect gift any time before Dec 25 5 p.m.
Los Angeles: Collect gift any time before Dec 25 4 p.m.
Mexico City: Collect gift any time before Dec 25 6 p.m.
New York: Collect gift any time before Dec 25 7 p.m.
Click here for a complete list of time zones. You can figure out the deadline by seeing how much of a difference there is between your city and London.
Since I’ve been measuring the food coming out of our stoves, I thought I’d take out the ruler for this one. As you can see, the free snow globe from Playfish is about 6 centimeters high (2.36 inches), and it makes the globe from the shops look tiny in comparison. I love how the snow keeps falling and falling and the gold star every once in a while glistens. But the little one is nice too, because you can shake it to make the snow fall. So cute…
Pet Society Makeover – From Doom to Boom
Published December 23, 2009 Fashion 3 CommentsTags: Pet Society, Pet Society clothing, Pet Society fashion, Pet Society makeovers, Pet Society Style
Chaos Bunnii is desperate for help. He admits he’s clueless when it comes to fashion. “Don’t you see I look like an idiot? What I think is fashion is a doom bringer in a bow!” he says.
I’m not sure what that last part means; a quick search on the Net shows that a doom bringer is a type of sword in World of Warcraft. Whatever.
Here are four different ways we’ve transformed this gloomy pumpkinhead. Vote for your favorite look at the bottom of this post.
The Fearless Pirate
We’re not crazy about the empty eyes, but we’re trying to make them work with an eye patch and a pirate’s bandana.
The Strong Athlete
Here, we keep the football uniform that Chaos Bunnii wore in his before picture but we add a Nerdy Boy’s Wig and a pair of friendly brown eyes. Isn’t he a stud?
Here he is crossing the finish line, eyes wide open:
The Stylish Shopper
For those days when you feel like a girly-girl, opt for the Cute Festive Dress and an Elegant Clutch.
The Fourth Jonas Brother
Finally, for the glitzy rock-star look, go for the white King’s Jacket and dark sunglasses.
Here are the different looks again. Vote for your favorite at the bottom.
Festive Bait & Fish in Pet Society
Published December 23, 2009 Fishing 14 CommentsTags: Festive Fish in Pet Society, Pet Society, Pet Society fish, Pet Society Fish List, Pet Society fishing
Today, while my pet Sushi was getting a cup of coffee, I noticed this message from the barista:
Hmm, I thought. We have the festive pudding at home, and Sushi isn’t going to eat it. I’ll try using that as bait to get the X-mas Pudding Fish. After all, this guy is practically telling me that I’ll get a holiday fish. Riiiight?
It’s been a while since Sushi has gone fishing, and I’m a bit nervous that I won’t do this correctly. But I remember my old zen method of fishing and breathe deeply as I pull and release the rod.
The fish fights hard, but I manage to drag it in. My anticipation mounts. Surely, this will be the Puddingfish. After all, it’s two days before Christmas and Sushi has been a good little boy.
Alas, that’s not the case. Turns out the fish he caught is the Elephantnose. Not a bad fish, but it’s something that we already have, and it’s not a “festive fish” as the cafe manager promised. Not to sound ungrateful or anything, but I feel like we’ve gotten the bait and switch here.
Have you been more successful catching the Festive Fish? Here are some of the holiday-themed fish in Pet Society. You need the Fish Biscuit from the Cash Shop for most of these, but you should be able to catch the Festive Cookiefish and the Festivefish with the seasonal dishes from your recipe book.

Yule Logs – Bake or Buy?
Published December 21, 2009 Cooking 12 CommentsTags: Pet Society, Pet Society Cooking
A reader sent in this image comparing the Festive Yule Log from the oven, which costs 500 coins to make, and a similar store-bought version from last year. I like the little snowman and the holly that come with the Festive Yule Log, but Catharsis108 says that she prefers the look of last year’s log.
Before you chime in on which one is better, consider the Chocolate Roulade, which costs only 60 coins at the food store. This could be a good substitute if you don’t feel like baking.
By the way, this is quite easy to do in real life. Let’s say you promised to bake a dessert for a friend’s holiday party. You procrastinated or got too busy Facebooking and now you have a half-hour before the party. What to do? Just go to the supermarket and get a tray of brownies. Buy some frosting and smear it on top of the brownies. The trick is to make it a little sloppy so that it looks home-made and not store-bought. Then cut them unevenly and put them on a plate. (Discard the aluminum tray from the store to remove all evidence of factory precision.) Sprinkle some crumbs on the sides for the finishing touch. Voilà, your home-made dessert! No one but you will ever know the truth.
