Persephone Emerald Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 (edited) They're not furnishings or décor, but pets are an important part of our homes too. Here's a thread to show off your pets and show us when good pets are on sale. Wouldn't a Shibu Inu be perfect in Sakura? Well, this weekend they're on sale at Jian. Shibu Inu single color sets for $L 75 for the Saturday sale and Corgie single color sets for $L 50 for the Secret Sale.

Marianne Little Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Okay, I am stretching the term "pets" here! How about butterflies? I find the usual rotating butterflies that go on in a loop a bit artificial. But the butterflies from Gumi's Flower Shop roam with a natural movement in 3m, 10m and 20 m diameter. I like to have movement around me. Beware that they are full bright, so you can edit them if you do not want full bright butterflies at night. 😉 The single colors cost 30 L, and I was lucky and bought the fatpack in a 25 L Tuesday sale. I have been considering buying the butterflies that can be set to flying in square and rectangular areas too, but I have found out that I don't need it. Here are a single color for 30 L: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/g-Butterflies-160922-Blue-Swallowtail/9965835 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betth Ashbourne Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 (edited) I am used butterflies from Just Animals Second Life Marketplace that I used at all home themes I've lived in, and fireflies from JIAN Second Life Marketplace . For me, it's just adding those little touches I like to make. Edited June 4, 2022 by Betth Ashbourne 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigga Freidman Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 (edited) For any birds, I strongly recommend TLC Animated Animals - they look real, they sound real, and best of all they are generally only 1 LI each (though higher LI 'scenarios' are available). They almost always have a booth at The Outlet. After lots of 'research' (and a few duff purchases), I decided they produce the best seagulls in SL. (The only disappointment I've had is with the Mallards - they look great, but unlike the songbirds and the parrot you can't alter the volume or frequency of their quacking, so I've just turned it off.)

Frigga Freidman Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 TLC also does dogs, like this little Pinscher (4 LI, animated) who lived in my trad for a while. Many of them are beautifully done, but heavy LI. So I've gone to Foxwood for my current pups, both of whom I found during weekend sales over the last few months. Yeva the Spaniel is 3 LI and Nelly the Staffie is 2 LI (I made her slightly smaller; she was 3 LI). They aren't animated, but are so appealing that I don't mind, and stand/sit/lay/holdable versions are included. (Oh, and the canaries are from THS; they're also animated and they sing.) 12 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nika Talaj Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 A few of my favorites. Speaking of Shiba Inus, Robby has looked after my stilt ever since I've had one ... that is, if he isn't caught up in his book. Every time my partner came onto our property in Well Springs, he would tell me there was a dead dog in the bedroom. Then it was my job to come up with a retort ... "Well, at least he won't be bothered if we ... you know ... make some noise!" ... "You're right, and he's been there forever, here's a gas mask " ... "Now we know why the cat never comes inside." (there's a cat on the front porch) Robby's brother Rory is frisking about at my Sakura home. He's much livelier than Robby, and the plan always was to calm him down (replace him with a static Shiba) once I got further along in decorating. (He's animesh, 45 LI). But he's so adorable; he has the quietest little yap, and is just cheery. 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elora Lunasea Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Hextraordinary, Black Bantam and Mutresse makes some nice pets also. There's one animesh pet creator I always get sucked into buying; recently because they did a Maine Coon cat and I have one in RL, but am inevitably disappointed by, I need to just stop. Way too much money, can't resize them to be a realistic size of the breed to avatar height and of course, the prim count is astronomical unless wearing the animal. Jian is my overall favorite, even the older ones have held up nicely. Big fan of TLC also. If anyone is looking for a specific item that was a Gacha, hit me up. I have so many duplicates/triplicates and more and don't mind lightening my inventory a bit. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are great free pets and décor gifts. The Phoenix makes a cool avatar if you make the rest of your body invisible and attach it to your center. The Tod Bear is a must have attachment too! Also check out Grizzly Creek, especially these 2 free songbirds, the Cut- Throat Finch and the Eurasian Tree Sparrow Edited June 11, 2022 by Persephone Emerald 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm tempted to get a spaniel pack for my pool, but I know I won't actually use it. I have my huskies, wolves, a Shiba inu and an Akita inu now, which are plenty of dogs for me in SL. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frigga Freidman Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) The animated, singing, caged canaries from THS that I'd shown last month are on sale this weekend for $75. (As sold, the entire piece is 9 LI; I unlinked the cage and birds and relinked them to a cabinet in my inventory and saved 3 LI.) Also on sale for $50 is this 6 LI fountain with nicely animated sparrows. (The ivy, grasses and flowers are all linked to make the scene.) Edited July 2, 2022 by Frigga Freidman added fountain with sparrows 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigga Freidman Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 TLC has some new critters at The Outlet which would especially suit the Sakura homes. The goldfish pond with waterfall is 24 LI and costs $80 - but you also get the circling fish that can be used in a pond (or pool) of your own, and they're only 2 LI for the 4 of them (that's why they're shown above the actual pond in the display). The egret, also animated is only 1 LI, $75. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dafadilia Wayfarer Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 This cute little betta fish tank is a free group gift from Jian. The fish is included. You get the option to change the color of the fish and name them. Pretty cute! 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigga Freidman Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 If Patch was being literal about 'Ranch' being the next theme, Hideki has some non-animated critters on sale that might help you populate all those wide open spaces. The (rather large) goat (8 LI) and bull (20 LI) are sold together for $75 (a bit heavy on the LI, but if it's a Premium Plus parcel you might be able to pull it off); the pointer (2 LI) and the llama (3 LI) are sold together for $75. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frigga Freidman Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Some more critters on sale this weekend, but no in-world demo, just a bit of video - Magnetic's Playful Otters, $75.
