How often do you click user's profile creatures?

How often do you click user's profile creatures (specifically the profile creature, not just feeding the cove itself)? I found myself curious about this when I randomly wondered if it was 'worth it' to put a non-view-growing creature in my profile. The profile creature definitely gets more views, but is it more likely to get clicks/feeds?

I'd love to hear the 'whys' too, if anyone wants to post that. What makes you more likely to click a profile creature? Do you ever do it in batches (ie, clicking every profile creature in a thread or something), or is it more random/spontaneous? Is there any reason you deliberately *don't* click profile creatures?

(Also, I'm aware of the 'Feed the creature above you' thread, for the purpose of this thread that doesn't count!)

@heatherm19
Personally, I pretty much never click other peoples profile creatures. I may once in a blue moon do it if the creature catches my eye and I can't identify it's species or travel, but it really needs to catch my attention. I do notice and admire them, I just don't feel a desire to interact with them.

@heatherm19 wow,, yeah great question! I usually do it to look at travels. But if I put a creature as my profile it evolves 5x faster EASILY. Jinko gets tons and tons and tons of views all the time (and a lot of the time is on the leaderboard) so im assuming a lot of people click him!

Yes I click users profile creatures sometimes to find out what species they are, or for feeding if the cove is feed friendly!

I click names cause if the creature is cool ill want to check there profile and forget about the creature half way though lol

Unless it's in the thread to feed the creature in the profile I usually do not click. Unless the creature is one I don't know. Then I will click. 😊

I usually click the pet to get to the profile! Just cos the circle has a larger click area than the name haha

I usually click to look at a travel I think looks good or if I don’t know what creature it is. But I don’t do it often.

Though recently I feel like my profile creature is getting more clicks - I just kept a new profile creature and it already has 7 clicks!

I always put a pet that needs views in my profile. When so many pets need 1000s of views, it makes sense. So I almost never feed a featured pet.

I always forget that they're clickable, even though I keep updating mine lol

Yeah, I actually click on users’ profile creatures quite often 🐉👀 It’s a fun way to discover new designs and see how creative everyone can get. Sometimes I even find ideas or color combos I wouldn’t have thought of myself 🎨✨ It’s like a little gallery hidden in every profile — why not explore it?

I only do it when I want to know what critter it is or by accident.

I place view pets on my profile. They can level fairly fast that way.

Any time I buy something from your user store, I'm clicking your profile creature. I tell myself it's my (very insignificant) discount.

I think I've only really ever clicked a Profile Beastie in that Forum Game where you Feed the Creature above you... Otherwise they'd probably only get fed when I go through Feed Friendly Coves - I wouldn't want to get in trouble for feeding anything that folks didn't want fed... 😖😅🐾

I'm a little wary of clicking profile creatures, because I tend to forget what I'm doing and feed on instinct, which has led to me feeding non-feed pets on accident 😬 I always apologize when that happens, but I prefer to avoid it altogether.

noodlebrick • 4 June 2026 at 3:01 PM

I figure if I'm already on a profile I might as well feed a handful of pets. (As long as their profile doesn't say they're not feed friendly.)

Every little bit helps and I do get paid for it. In fact feeding directly from profiles is a lot faster, I get most of my income from the perilous coves list.

Used to do every day, 5000+ ☹️ now I rarely do

ravenskyfire • 5 June 2026 at 8:49 PM

I click them if i don't recognize the critter. I've been an off and on player for awhile so there are tons of critters i don't recognize so i tend to click alot of profiles

Any time I visit a thread. It's very easy on my phone since I can just click, feed, then swipe to the previous page.
