how do I get a pet

Hi, I see you're new! Here's a page with some guides and useful information for newbies:

I totally thought the sign up process included making a pet so I'm not sure how that might affect everything else, but try going here: https://subeta.net/adopt.php

there is also a place that has unwanted already created pets, Adopt R Us. It is in Delphi

You can also go to Forums - Subeta Pets - Adoption Center to try to adopt a pet directly from its current owner
