What BabyPets offers

🐣

28 Pet Types

Cows, wolves, foxes, pandas, axolotls, allays and more — picked through a clean 54-slot GUI.

🏷️

Custom Naming

Name pets up to 8 characters with full Minecraft colour code support. Names are entered in chat privately.

🚶

Follow & Wander

Pets follow at a configurable distance, wander naturally nearby, and teleport to you if you move too far.

💾

MySQL Storage

All pet data persists to MySQL so pets survive restarts. Also supports flat YAML storage for single servers.

🌐

Cross-Server Sync

Share one MySQL database across multiple servers in your network — pets follow players between servers.

🔒

Permission Slots

Control how many pets each player can have (1–5 or unlimited) via permission nodes or LuckPerms meta.

✨

PlaceholderAPI

Slot limits can be driven by PAPI placeholders — perfect for rank-based pet allowances.

🛡️

Pet Protection

Pets can't be harmed by players or mobs, keeping your companions safe during adventures.
