Types of Virtual Computer Pets

virtual computer pets

Virtual computer pets come in all shapes, sizes, and forms. You can download virtual pet software and run it as a program or you can download a unique desktop pet.

With virtual pet software, you download an application and run it every time you want to interact with your pet. In this way, virtual pet software is similar to a computer game.

Desktop pets, on the other hand, are designed more as visual entertainment and/or distractions rather than a game. They exist in the background on your computer's wallpaper.

Some desktop pets allow the user to interact with the pet while others only allow the user to watch the pet. For example, desktop fish usually do not require interaction.
