What is a companion pet?
A companion pet is more or less your own personal Warcraft critter. When your companion pet is summoned, it will follow your character throughout the game world. They can even battlewith other pets and critters in a neat Pokémon-esque minigame! Companion pets are also known as vanity pets, battle pets, and minipets. All of these terms are used interchangeably. WarcraftPets defines a companion pet as any summoned entity that meets ALL of the following criteria: 1. The entity is summoned via a...
What do companion pets actually do?
Companions will loyally and cheerfully accompany you as you journey through Azeroth and beyond. And as noted above, they are also able to battle one another in a fun-filled sub-game that's reminiscent of Pokémon. Some will do interesting things when left idle, such as twirling around or falling asleep. For the most part, companions exist to give your character a little extra flair.
Can I name my pets?
Yes! In the Mists of Pandariaexpansion, Blizzard introduced the ability to rename your companions. Note that some names are reserved and all names must be kept family-friendly — sorry, no companions referencing bodily functions. To rename your pet, simply bring up your Pet Journal and find it in the list. Then right-click on it and select "Rename." It's especially fun to rename those pets that you level up for pet battling.
Why collect anything?
Why collect epic armor sets? Why collect tabards? Why collect mounts? Why collect anything in World of Warcraft? Because it's fun, challenging, and it gives you a way to set yourself apart from others. When you obtain a very rare pet, you can showcase your find to others and be the envy of all of Azeroth... or at least the envy of those who appreciate such things.Plus, it's neat to be asked by other players where you found your exotic little friend. Pets especially are one of the most fascina...
What kind of collector are you?
No doubt, you've collected many things over the years. Sports memorabilia, toys, dolls, comic books, coins, trading cards... the list of potential collectables is endless. So what kind of collector are you? Are you the obsessive type that must have one of everything to complete your collection? Or are you more patient and persistent, allowing your collection to grow in its own good time. Perhaps your approach is far more selective, choosing only to collect those items which truly interest you...
Challenges every pet collector must face
Pet collecting would be much less appealing if every pet was easy to get. Where's the challenge in that? Lucky for us, there are many obstacles to overcome: 1. Tedious grinds- The odds of some pets dropping are less than 1 in 1,000. And killing over a thousand mobs doesn't even guarantee you'll get the pet. 2. Difficult quests- A few pets require facing off against challenging elite mobs. To complete these quests, you'll need lots of patience, the help of a good group, or both. 3. High prices...

A link is available beneath yo...
Find collectors on your server
One of WarcraftPets' most powerful features is our member search tool. This feature allows you to find other pet collectors that play on your realm, allowing you to team up for pet farming and trading. You can also more easily find your friends here at WarcraftPets when you search for them by username. To take advantage of this tool, you'll want to update your account with your character name, region, realm, and faction.
One or more characters?
Most players have a main character that they play more than any others. It's best to collect as many pets as you can on your main. This provides a few key benefits, such as earning pet-related achievements. A few of these achievements even unlock even more pets, such as Stinker and the Little Fawn. There are also a few reasons you may wish to collect pets with more than one toon. A handful of pets are chosen as seasonal quest rewards from a choice of several, making it difficult to collect al...
The art of farming
A few of you are probably thinking, "Farming? But I'm a {insert class}, not a farmer!" Farming in an MMORPG simply means killing hundreds of the same mobs until you "harvest" the items you're looking for. In our case, those items happen to be small pets. You can filter pets by 'dropped' to discover what items are dropped by which mobs and how often they drop. If you're new to the art of farming, here are a few tips to get you started: 1. Empty your bags- Before you get out in the field, sell...
Playing the auction house
Any pets that are tradablecan be bought at auction. So if you simply can't tolerate farming for that 1 in 1,000 drop, you can play the auction house (AH) instead. Watch for your pet- So long as your pet is tradable, there's a good chance you can find it on the AH... eventually. If possible, logon with your bank alt at least once a day and run a search for your pet (use the item name). Common pets tend to appear most often, allowing you to pick and choose what you're willing to pay. Rare pets...
Getting Started
Ready to start collecting? Good! Keep up that enthusiasm and you'll have a plethora of petsbefore you know it! Your initial approach to pet collecting is going to depend on a few key factors: your current level, your gold supply, and how much time you have. Lower level characters aren't going to have access to all of the zones and gold that higher level characters take for granted. So if you're in that boat, you may have a slower start. But don't let that discourage you—in the end, pet collec...
Vendored pets
Many of the easiest pets to collect are vendored pets.Make sure to note which pets are sold by the opposing faction. Those vendors will be off limits to your character. (This is when it pays to have another character of the opposing faction. Most pets learned by that character are added to your journal and summonable by your main.) Click on the vendor's name to pull up a map and additional info about the vendor from Wowhead. The best strategy for collecting all of the vendored pets is to work...
Dropped pets
The thrill of the hunt might entice you to farm for some dropped pets. Pet profiles on our site include the drop rate of every dropped pet, along with Wowhead links to maps for every mob you'll have to grind. The art of farming(above) includes all the tips you'll need to farm for nearly every dropped pet.
Where'd you get that pet!?
At some point during your pet collecting career, while you're busy organizing your bags or visiting a vendor, you'll get an unexpected tell from a complete stranger asking you where you got that adorable pet standing idly by your side. And that's when it hits you—you've got something of interest, something that draws the eye, something unique that at least a few players are seeing for the very first time. In that moment, as your face turns a smile, you can reply to the curious party with the...
