🐝 What are pets?

Pets are special creatures that can be spawned in The Hive's hubs. Once summoned, pets will follow you around.

Each pet comes with its own exclusive animations, a unique hub title and avatar, and one complimentary Pet Rename Pass.

You can find a full list of all available pets by clicking here.

🥚 How can pets be obtained?

Pets can be purchased with Minecoins on the Hive Store. To see a list of pets that are available to purchase, go to the hub and open the Hub Cosmetics menu by interacting with the spawn egg item in your hot bar.

Once you have purchased a pet, you will be able to summon it by opening the menu again.

💬 How do I rename my pet?

Each pet comes with one free Pet Rename Pass, which allows you to change your pet's name once.

To rename your pet, or to change the color of its name, first spawn your pet, and then click/tap on it. You can change the color of your pet's name as many times as you would like.

Pet names may include letters, numbers, spaces, question and exclamation marks, apostrophes, and underscores.

If you have already named your pet and wish to change its name again, you will need to purchase a Pet Rename Pass from the Hive Store for 160 Minecoin.

🎁 Can you gift pets to other players?

Yes! Pets that are available on the Hive Store can be gifted to other players using gift tokens. The required number of tokens depends on the Minecoin price of the pet you wish to gift.

❓ Why won't it let me rename my pet?

All pet names are filtered through Minecraft's in-game chat filter. Names may be blocked by the filter for various reasons, but this is usually due to the name being inappropriate or referencing real-world locations or individuals. We at The Hive have no control over what is and isn't blocked by the filter.

If you find that it won't let you rename your pet at all, it is that you your Minecraft account has a Communication Suspension. These are automatically issued by Minecraft. The Hive has no control over them and, as such, cannot assist you with getting unmuted.
