Pet Demands

Hello. More of a question, I guess. Why won’t they add spiders to the game?? I understand that arachnophobia is a thing, but there are fears for every pet out there. I personally have a friend who’s terrified of monkeys/gorillas and refuses to receive them in trades. Why can’t people with arachnophobia just refuse them? Even if the phobia isn’t the case, is it because it’s “hard to make spiders cute”? If so that isn’t entirely true. Y’all can take a look at Lucas The Spider and he’s adorable. So you can’t say that spiders can’t be cute. If need be, I can even draw up some designs that the people would like. Overall I understand that people have arachnophobia but please listen to the majority of your users. Every Halloween I see spiders being asked for more and more. Thank you and please take time to consider.

not everyone is scared of those animals, out of all of those spiders are the worst to many people, we can't debate over this because we don't get to decide if they add it or not

nuh uh a cute lil furry spider would be so cute oml- im so w u on this. also with HalloMistEdits, to be fair they have sharks and werewolves in the game. dragons, piranhas, scorpions, cockroaches, and more. i think a black smoother version of the spider crab would look cool too.

My only guess is the team members are scared of spiders themselves. There's the spidercrab. Looks enough like a spider.

I am gonna have to say I am on adopt me's side here. It is too risky to add in a pet that is feared by so many. And not everybody's phobias are the same, some can just refuse to look or be around their phobia while others can have a full on panic attack just with a glimpse. Although I can see your point on "Why can’t people with arachnophobia just refuse them". I do this with my phobia of cows, I refuse them in trade and do not allow them in my inventory but a fear of spiders is so much more common. About 3-15% of the population has arachnophobia and it is just to risky to put it in such a popular game. And no matter how hard people try, they can't make cows look cute or adorable to me so I believe a lot of people with arachnophobia would feel the same way with spiders. You just can't change the views on some people. I believe we should stay on the safer side instead of risking so many payers to quit adopt me.eet
