FAQ
Pet Society questions, answered
Can you still play Pet Society?
The original Pet Society by Playfish closed in June 2013, so the official game can no longer be played. Its spirit lives on, though: Paw Society is a fan-made revival you can play in your browser, and Pet Pals offers the same cozy pet raising and home decorating on mobile and the web.
What is Happy Pet Island?
Happy Pet Island is the new name of Pet Society Island, a free virtual pet game by Cats & Bites Studio for iOS, Android and PC (Steam). You raise and dress up a pet, decorate your home and explore a tropical island. The game is still unstable, so expect bugs and servers that may be down at times.
Is Pet Society Island the same game as Happy Pet Island?
Yes. Pet Society Island launched on mobile in 2024 and was later renamed Happy Pet Island. It is the same game, with the same Google Play and App Store listings.
What is Paw Society?
Paw Society is a free, fan-made revival of Pet Society that runs in your web browser. It is being rebuilt from the original Playfish game so you can adopt a pet, decorate, garden, cook and visit friends again. It is unofficial and not affiliated with EA or Playfish.
What are the best games like Pet Society?
Pet Pals is the closest match on mobile and the web, and Paw Society recreates the original in your browser. Party Town and Pet City 2 keep the Facebook game feel alive, and Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete is a great pick if decorating was your favorite part. Happy Pet Island (formerly Pet Society Island) is another option, but it is still unstable.
Is there a Pet Society app for iPhone or Android?
There is no official Pet Society app today. The closest virtual pet game on iOS and Android is Pet Pals, which is free to download. Happy Pet Island (formerly Pet Society Island) is also on both stores, but it is still unstable.
