Tagalong pets are free-standing pets that amble along with you, and even sit beside you. They're still wearable pets though, so they won't take up prims or get stuck or lost.

They attach to the left or right hip, and only work with Tinies or Tiny Quads. (You normal folks can wear 'em as shoulder pets.)

Tagalong Pets are modifyable and copiable (just in case you mess up the modifications :X ). They are no transfer.


How To Adjust Your Tagalong Pet:
Tagalong Pets go on your right or left hip, so attach them there.
Stand up straight, and adjust the pet so it is standing on the floor next to you. Note: raising them up off the floor a tad is a good idea.
Sit down (on the ground is best), and adjust the Tagalong Pet so it's posterior is on the ground and not floating or sunken. You may want to rotate it forward a little -- but not too far, or it may bonk its nose on the ground when walking.


GooglaChickie:
-----------------

The GooglaChickie is a baby Googlabird (one of my Little Monsters avatars, also available at Willow Creek). It has one stumpy little leg, chubby body, tiny wings and a long neck -- not to mention the big googly eyes! It hops along beside you as you walk.

Googlabirds aren't the brightest bunch, and Chickies are no exception. They can be shy, but often they have an insatiable curiosity and no sense of self-preservation whatsoever.



Lopalong:
-----------

The Lopalong has a single spring-loaded leg, long neck and tail, and soft, rabbit-like face with dangling floppy ears. It is mottled with spots and stripes. It comes with a belled collar.
The Lopalong is tintable, and has an assortment of 9 colours you can set it to via touch menu. Just click to select a colour.

Normaly these placid creatures are very sedate, living quietly on dewdrops. However, if frightened (or plied with too much sugar), they can spring into action at an amazing rate.



Tapirok:
---------

The Tapirok is a fleet, long-legged, hoofed beastie. It has tall ears, a flexible trunk, and a curly tail.

Tapiroks are only dangerous in large herds, where they will go into a frenzy of head-butting and pronking. No one knows why they do this, exactly. They are very fond of jellybeans and sniff out these delectable treats with their keen snouts.




Jenk:
------

Jenks are hardy, sturdy little creatures of prodigious strength. They have large jaws and small eyes and ears. They are broad, with thick forearms.
The Jenk has 12 pelts to choose from; just click your pet to make a selection.

It isn't known if Jenks are mentally slow, or if they are just so laid back that nothing perturbs them. They do have a slow metabolism, and rarely eat. Their diet consists of porous rocks, which they grind slowly in their massive teeth.
