      @@kaitlando636 You can breed catz to catz and dogz to dogz, the pigs and rabbits were coded different so you couldn't have wacky hybrids by the original standards of the game. The thing is the modding community for Petz was wild(talented asf) and had everything from cheetahs(based on dog for some reason if I recall correctly), birds, dogs/cats with wings, fish that floated through the air, to snakes and Spinosaurus. I literally can't scratch the surface of my memory I must've had at least 200 mods back in the day.. The mod petz, to be put into the game, basically had to be based on dog or cat DNA/behavior if you want to think of it that way, but bodies looked however they modded it to, and eventually they figured out custom sounds n such. The mod petz were fully able to breed with whatever else original and mod petz that match their DNA base and could result in crazy stuff like literally 1-pixel wide bodies, weird floating/disconnected shapes, passing down or mutating crazy colors and textures. The genetics in the petz is actually complex and they have litters of 1-4 babies where siblings aren't just copies of parents or each other usually their markings/colors/sizes develop different - and soo interesting to see what it makes through multiple generations.
