With the 1.6 Update arriving in Stardew Valley, you now have the opportunity to adopt every pet in the game, transforming your farm into a delightful animal shelter. However, Marnie is cautious and won’t allow irresponsible villagers to become pet parents. Therefore, if you wish to adopt all pets in the game, you must first prove to her that you are a trustworthy owner. This guide will help you discover all the new pets introduced in the latest version of the game and teach you how to adopt each one.
Stardew Valley: How to Get New Bobber Styles
Bobber Styles are new fishing cosmetics in Stardew Valley 1.6 that you can unlock only by becoming a master fisher.
How to Get All Pets
You get one pet for free at the start of each playthrough. In the Spring 20th, Marnie will bring you a cat or dog based on your choice in the character customization menu. After this, you can adopt more pets by building pet bowls on your farm and purchasing pet licenses.
Adopting all twelve pets (five dogs, five cats, and two turtles) will cost youapproximately 980,000g, considering you receive the first pet for free. This total includes 920,000g for licenses and 60,000g for pet bowls.
There are indeed fourteen pets in Stardew Valley 1.6 . However, since you cannot purchase the Iridium variants of cats and dogs, the total price mentioned above is calculated for twelve shoppable animals.
Here’s a breakdown:
- Adopt your first pet. When Marnie brings you a cat or dog, select yes to get your first companion animal.
- Max out your pet friendship. Earn five hearts with your first pet to unlock the chance to get more animals.
- Get extra water bowls. Talk to Robbin and purchase pet bowls from her for 5,000g.
- Wait for Marnie’s letter. She will inform you of her new service, Pet Licenses, which allows you to shop for companion animals at a base price of 40,000g.
- Buy pet licenses. After building each pet bowl, pay Marnie the requested licensing fee to bring home a new pet.
Here’s how much you must pay to adopt every pet:
Animal Type | Licensing Fee |
|---|---|
Cats | 40,000g |
Dogs | 40,000g |
Turtle | 60,0000g |
Iridium Turtle | 500,000g |
New Pets in Stardew Valley v1.6
As of March 2024, Stardew Valley introduces three new cat types: White, Black, and Iridium. Additionally, there are three new dog types: Grey, Dark Brown, and Iridium. Furthermore, the new pet species, turtles, includes a regular (green) type and one Iridium (purple) variant.
Marnie
now sells two Doghouses, two Cat Trees, and one Birdhouse that you can use as decorative items for your pets.
How to Change or Remove Your Pet
You have the option to either change or remove your pet in Stardew Valley. To alter a pet’s appearance, gift 500g to the Shrine of Illusions located in the Wizard’s basement. (This method only changes the “style” of your pet, not its species.) If you wish to part ways with a companion animal, you can sprinkle some Butterfly Powder on it. This magical dust will transform your animal into a butterfly, permanently removing it from your farm.
