How to get and use Pets in Fields of Mistria
The second major update for Fields of Mistria added something players have been asking for since it launched in early access last year: the ability to own pets. Farming chickens and cows is fun, but there's an astronomical difference between animal husbandry and sharing your home with a furry friend. If pets were just household companions who brought a healthy dose of unconditional love into your life, that'd be enough to make them outstanding additions to Fields of Mistria. However, pets can also help you gather resources around town, which gives you more time to tend your farm, delve into the mines, or check in with your neighbors.

Once you've made this impossible decision, you can select the little one's name and gender pronouns. After you've done this, the dream ends. As soon as you step outside your house the next day, your new companion will roll up like they own the place. After an introductory head-pat, they move in and make themselves at home. I'm no gambler, but the whole "appearing before me in a dream" thing leads me to believe there's more to this furry friend than meets the eye.
