Dropped Pets

I keep seeing people say that they get pets from different bosses. Well I have never gotten one. I beat all in Wizard City, Krokotopia, and am almost done with Marleybone and starting on Grizzelheim. What gives? Why am I not getting any of these things? I am at least a level 35 Life wizard and I want a pet that gives a card. I got a black spider from a quest and I thought it had a card but when it hatched no card. Anyway I just want to know if there is something special you have to do to get these pets to drop or if the game is screwed up on my account.

Well i ran into the similar problem. Actually very few bosses drop pets, and I know two but i am not allowed to say what since that is a spoiler. Sorry but to get a dropped pet you have to defeat a boss that is known to drop one multiple times, sometimes as much as 6! Hope this helps!

No. The game isn't messed up on your account.

Pet drops are rare. You have to be lucky. You can go back and keep playing the same bosses to try to get one. But you also have to be patient.

You can check out the fansite at Wizard101.com to see where all the pets are. Some can be bought, and some are drops.

Hope this helps.

As for the pet with a card, you might have to train up the pet before you get a card. Another thing too is try to be second if you're farming for a pet. It seems to work better that way.

It's sheer luck to get a pet on your first try from a boss. It has hardly ever happened to me. If you want a specific pet from a specific boss, chances are you will have to farm the boss (farming being fighting the boss over and over again). Hope this helps!

i have managed three dropped pets so fr two blue ghosts and one dark sprite, my only concern is wh when i hached my blue ghost with a dream ghoul which cost me and another player 14500 gold each we got a blue ghost, i would think a dropped pet would not hatch in the hatchery, so i will give up on the pet hatching becaue feel cheated, it took a really really long time to get my pet to adult as it was and then the time to get the money i just figured it would be different, one question though, cani train my hatched pet and re hatch i with another to increase the chances of a different pet?
thank you for your time

And btw i fought a certian boss last night 7 times in a row and did not get the drop, i know he drops a life minotaur for i have been there when friends have recieved this pet, yes 7 times and i will do it 10 more if i have to. Plus it gives me loot to sell, you see i saved 90,000 gold to buy the permanant mount in the crown shop ( big lion) Also ty K I for the gold option but why no gold option for pets in crown shop?
