Pets are optional cosmetic items that stand alongside the player's character and follow the player during a match. They each have a unique set of poses to match the playable character's poses. Pets are unique among cosmetics in numerous ways. They are the only cosmetic that the player can receive duplicates of, as well as the only cosmetic to utilize the Steam Inventory, allowing them to be traded among players and sold on the Steam Marketplace.
Pets are primarily obtained through the Arcade by using Arcade Tokens to obtain them from the various Pet Catchers. However, there are some special pets that aren't obtained from the Arcade, instead being earned through event rewards or purchased in the Shop. Pets that aren't obtained from the Arcade cannot be traded or sold, and cannot be received more than once.
Most pets also have color variants, which are differently-colored versions of the pet. Each pet typically has 5 color variants, and they function as separate pets rather than an equippable cosmetic. For pets obtained from the Arcade, the only way to get color variant pets is from the Pet Exchange in the Arcade, where duplicate pets can be combined to create a color variant version of that pet. For special pets obtained outside of the Arcade, their color variants can be bought in the Shop after the standard version of the pet is obtained. All pets obtained from the Arcade have color variants, while most special pets do not.
Pets are represented in the cosmetics menu with a icon.

Arcade Pets
The type of pet that can be won depends on which Pet Catcher is used. A pet's rarity determines how likely the pet is to be won from its respective Pet Catcher.
Each icon below links to each pet's respective Steam Marketplace page.
