The Chubby Chipmunk update has arrived, and with it comes a lineup of adorable yet surprisingly powerful pets.

From passive buffs that help your plants grow faster to unique abilities that boost your rewards, these pets are designed to complement the fall event perfectly.

Whether you’re farming Acorns, chasing mutations, or just looking to automate more of your garden’s processes, these pets can make a real difference.

This update introduces six new pets that can be obtained through two main methods: the Chubby Chipmunk Reward Track and Nutty Chests.

The reward track focuses on event progression as your Chubby Chipmunk gains weight, while Nutty Chests rely on RNG but offer some of the strongest pet passives.

Here’s the full list of new pets added in this update:
