Expand Your Stardew Valley Farm with Multiple Pets!
This guide details how to acquire multiple pets in Stardew Valley, adding a touch of furry companionship to your farming endeavors. Initially, only one pet was allowed per save file, but the 1.6 update changed that.
Unlocking Multiple Pets:
To unlock the ability to adopt additional pets, you must first maximize your friendship level with your existing pet. This involves daily care:
Monitor your pet's friendship level via the "Animals" tab in the pause menu. Once maxed out, Marnie will send you a message, granting access to additional pets (or at the start of Year 2 if you initially skipped pet adoption).
Adopting Multiple Pets:
Visit Marnie's shop (9:00 AM - 4:00 PM, closed Mondays and Tuesdays) after receiving Marnie's message. Select "Adopt Pets" from the dialogue options.
Choose from twelve available Pet Licenses: five cat variations, five dog variations, and two turtle types. Each license incurs a cost:
| Pet License | Cost |
|---|---|
| Brown Cat | 40,000g |
| Grey Cat | 40,000g |
| Orange Cat | 40,000g |
| White Cat | 40,000g |
| Black Cat | 40,000g |
| Brown Dog (Blue Collar) | 40,000g |
| Brown Dog (Shepherd) | 40,000g |
| Brown Dog (Red Collar) | 40,000g |
| Black & White Dog (Red Bandana) | 40,000g |
| Dark Brown Dog | 40,000g |
| Green Turtle | 60,000g |
| Purple Turtle | 500,000g |
Essential Pet Supplies:
Before or after adopting, commission Pet Bowls from Robin's shop. Each costs 5,000g and 25 Hardwood. These act as your pet's home, preventing friendship decay and runaway pets.
Optional decorative items like Doghouses and Cat Trees are available at Marnie's.
Enjoy your expanded Stardew Valley family! Stardew Valley is available now.
