That same fan, Nicholas Sherlock, also created a bunch of other incredible tools like It comes with a help file that I recommend reviewing. Petz A fixes some bugs and also allows more control over the game like instant mating and sex changes. Petz A is an amazing tool created by a Petz fan. A caveat is they may have some missing personality/animations compared to the 'real' breeds but some people prefer them.

Unibreeds: These are custom breed files that work in both Petz 3, 4, and 5! You use the LnzPro program mentioned below to create them. Here are a couple at Cirrutopia for example and some of my own on my own site Unique Petz. Selective Breeds: Breeding the original breeds to get interesting combinations and then fixing the traits (usually by inbreeding) until they breed true (puppies/kittens are mostly identical). For example, I was using a horse Dalmatian OW when I bred this dog and it doesn't look quite right. Which can be fun! But also annoying if you have just forgotten to replace the OW with the original. If you breed while the OW file is in, any pet with that breed in its lineage will be born with the modded traits. The advantage is people can adopt petz from this breed without installing anything.

Overwrite(OW): This is a custom breed file that overwrites an original breed file (like the Dalmatian.dog). Hexing: Editing petz game files to create custom/'modded' breeds, pets, toys, clothes, and more!

I've never been able to get Wine to work, but someone wrote a guide for Babyz here that might work for Petz. There is another free software called Wine. I wrote up a guide for using VirtualBox, which is free but extremely buggy. If you're on a Mac it's a little more difficult. You can just drag it to your desktop and the game should run perfectly fine on modern Windows. It comes with Petz A installed automatically. Under the 'PETZ 4 FULL GAME' header click the 'For Windows' link. I recommend downloading Petz 4 from Yabiko. While Petz 5 was the last mainline game released, Petz 4 is the most popular game. The game is no longer sold so how do you play? And what other things do you need to know. A new YouTube video called The Rise and Fall of Petz has also awakened interest for new and returning players. I went to college, about 18 years passed and I decided to play Petz again recently. I first played Petz back in the late 90s and was really into it in the early 00s.
