Do you have to download Pet Society? No

No. This edition has no installer, application or APK: it opens in a tab of your computer’s browser. It does not need Flash or any plugin either.

If a page offers a “Download Pet Society” button, an .exe file, an .apk or a “launcher” to play, it is not this edition.

Where is Pet Society, and how do you get in?

The only site of this edition is petsociety.fbgamesweb.com. Open it, press “Create my pet” or “Create account”, type a username and a password twice and confirm. The first sign-in takes you to the pet creator.

Bookmark the address so you always arrive at the same place and never land on a copy or a dubious link.

How can you recognize a fake Pet Society download?

Third-party projects exist that distribute a desktop program for Pet Society. This edition is not one of them, and we cannot answer for what a program that is not ours does. If you want to play here, you need none of that.

Be wary if a page asks you to install a “launcher”, an .exe or an .apk to play, asks for your password or tells you to skip your computer’s security warnings. And do not mix this edition up with “Pet Society Vacation”, a separate iOS game from 2011.

What about fake offers of coins or cash?

Distrust any page, video or message promising free coins or cash, or a “generator” for them. They do not exist for Pet Society, and such offers can be used to steal data or install something harmful.

Here cash only arrives one way: a voluntary donation, handled by ticket in the “Donation” category with a screenshot of the payment. And we will never ask for your password in a ticket.

What does sign-up ask for, and what does it not?

It asks for a username of 3 to 24 characters and a password of 8 to 128, typed twice. The email is optional and is added later in “My account”. That is all.

It does not ask for Facebook or any other social network, and you pay nothing to register or keep playing. If a site claiming to be Pet Society asks for more, such as your Facebook password, payment details or a prior download, be wary.

What can you do instead: open the page and play?

All you need is a computer browser; desktop Chrome is the one tested with real clicks. Open the page and start: it opens with no Flash, and your pet and progress are saved on the server, tied to your account, not in a file of yours.

On phones, touch screens have not been tested, so there is no download that fixes that: playing from a computer is recommended.

What if you already downloaded something dubious?

Do not open it. If you already ran it, uninstall it, run an antivirus scan and change the passwords of accounts you used on that computer, starting with your email. This is general advice, not a diagnosis of anything specific.

In Pet Society, change your password from “Password and security” and check “Active sessions”, both in the account menu. If you think someone got into your account, open an “Account and sign-in” ticket from “Support and tickets” or visit the public support page. We will never ask for your password.

    You play in your browser, with no Flash and no downloads, on a computer and, depending on the game, on your phone too.

Frequently asked questions about downloading Pet Society

Do I need to download Pet Society to play?

No. Pet Society is played in your computer’s browser with nothing to download: there is no installer, application or APK, and no Flash is needed. You go to petsociety.fbgamesweb.com, create a free account and play. If a page offers an installer, it is not this edition.

Does Pet Society have an APK or an installer?

No. This edition of Pet Society offers no APK, installer or application. If you find a file with that name, it is not from this edition and we cannot answer for what it contains; the prudent choice is simply not to install it.

Where can you play Pet Society today?

At petsociety.fbgamesweb.com, the only site of this edition. The original Pet Society by Playfish stopped being available officially in 2013, and this is an independent edition by FB Games, still in beta, that runs in your browser for free, with an account of your own.

Is it safe to download Pet Society from other sites?

There is nothing to download from this edition, so any Pet Society file on another page does not come from us. As a general rule, do not install “launchers”, .exe files or .apk files from sites you do not know, and never type your password into them.

Are there coin or cash generators for Pet Society?

No. Any coin or cash generator for Pet Society is fake and can be used to steal data. If you see one, do not type your username or password into it. In this edition cash only arrives through a voluntary donation handled by ticket.

Is Pet Society free to play?

Yes, it is free. Creating an account and playing Pet Society is free, and you do not pay to create your pet or keep playing. Donations to the project are voluntary and handled by ticket, never through other channels or private messages.

Do I need Facebook, or to give my Facebook password, for Pet Society?

No. Pet Society uses an account of its own, with a username and password for this edition, and no Facebook or other social network. Never give your Facebook password to a page that asks for it in order to play.

What should I do if I downloaded something fake for Pet Society?

Do not open it. If you already ran it, uninstall it, run an antivirus scan and change your passwords. In Pet Society, change yours from “Password and security” and, if you need help, open a ticket from “Support and tickets”.
