11 days to go!

Unread post by Sukurachi »

Yes eleven more days until the appearance of the Snowy Owl pets in Winterspring!

Stop counting hours. Stop it! It won't make time go by faster.

And stop looking at your calender.

It's only 11 days.


(and wouldn't it just... the 21st of December HAD to be a Saturday! Do you have ANY idea how much of a free-for-all Winterspring will be?)

Petopian Christmas Gifts ^-^

2 questions however.

Are they limited time only?

Are they cage-able?

All questions answered here:

Pet level: 17-18

limited availability: yes. they are a seasonal pet, like the Qiraji Guardling. They are only available during "winter" (December 21st through March 21st). The Qiraji Guardling is only available during the "summer" (June 21st through September 21st).

cannot be caged (they are wild pets)

And since no one has asked: they are part of the achievement for taming Kalimdor (tame every wild pet available).

Note: very frustratingly, two of the required pets for that achievement are seasonal, and BOTH are on Kalimdor (Winterspring, and Silithus). Note that both are also totally AWESOME looking pets!

It probably will be a little busy the first few days. I think many collectors got one last year; I even managed to catch a rare. So hopefully it won't be too bad.

it took m at least three days, but I DID eventually get a [rare] quality Snowy Owl, and it's a REALLY beautiful pet. I ended up taming the matching quest-related owl Hell-Hoot from the same zone for my main hunter. Now I have a matching set.
