Having a cute, fluffy friend to join your inZOI character on their adventures makes li♒fe that much more hea𝄹rtwarming. However, while you can have animals in your world and watch them wander around the environment, whether you can own a pet is an entirely different story.

Can you get pets in inZOI?

At the time of writing, inZOI doesn’t let you own pets. You can add wild animals to your world, but you can’t adopt a pet and have it live with you. There’s no word on an exact release date for them or whether they’ll be part of the game’s base game, but Krafton has confirmed they’ll appear eventually.

As detailed in Krafton’s Discord FAQ channels, pets were not available during inZOI’s initial Early Access launch but are a “high priority for future updates.” In short, while we don’t have them yet, we’ll probably get them either during inZOI’s later EA stages or after its full release.

How to place animals in your city in inZOI

Although you can’t adopt pets, you can add wild animals to your world. Here’s a complete step-by-step to placing animals in your inZOI map:

1. Select Edit City at the bottom-right corner of your screen or press M on PC.
2. Tap City Appearance.
3. Go to Animals.
4. Select up to three animals to add to your town.
5. Change the density to match your preferences.

Now, as you travel around town with your Zoi, you’ll spot animals wandering around and living their lives. While you won’t find a ton in busy urban areas, you’ll see plenty if you visit parks and nature spots around the world.

There are eight animals you can add to your inZOI world. Here’s a list of them all:

• Cats
• Dogs
• Pandas
• Deer
• Raccoons
• Squirrels
• Foxes
• Crocodiles

The animals you add to your map and their density are entirely up to you. You can’t interact with them, but you can walk up to them and appreciate their cuteness.
