Last updated: March 2026
Pets are one of the most powerful — and most misunderstood — systems in Coin Master. Used correctly, they can double your raid earnings, add hundreds of millions of extra coins during attacks, and shield an entire village while you sleep. Used incorrectly, they burn through your pet food and give you almost nothing in return.
This guide covers everything about Coin Master pets in 2026: what each pet does, exactly how to unlock them, what the reward percentages look like at different levels, how the Pet Outfit and Pet Crew systems work, and the smartest way to rotate pets depending on what event is running.

What Are Coin Master Pets?
Coin Master pets are companion animals that give you bonus rewards while they are awake and active. There are three pets in the game — Foxy the fox, Tiger, and Rhino — each with a completely different role. Foxy boosts your raid earnings, Tiger multiplies coins from attacks, and Rhino protects your village from incoming attacks.
Pets need to be fed with Pet Snacks to activate. Once fed, a pet stays active for 4 hours. During those 4 hours, every raid, attack, or defensive block you trigger will have that pet’s bonus applied. The higher the pet’s level, the larger the bonus.
There is also a free daily activation option: a green pet food icon appears on the spin screen once every 24 hours. Tapping it activates your selected pet for a free 15-minute window — enough for a quick burst of spins during an event.
The Three Pets: Foxy, Tiger & Rhino
🦊 Foxy — The Raid Specialist
Foxy is the first pet you unlock and remains one of the most popular among experienced players. Her ability activates during raids.
Normally, when you raid another village, you are given four dig spots and three shovels — so you can only uncover three of the four spots. When Foxy is active, she digs up the fourth spot automatically, giving you access to all four possible coin piles. On top of that, she adds a bonus percentage on top of the total coins you raided, scaled to her current level.
- What she does: Digs the 4th raid spot + adds a percentage bonus on total raid coins
- Level 1 bonus: +16% of your total raid amount
- Level 100 bonus: +100% (doubles your raid)
- Max level (400) bonus: +119%
- Best event to use: Raid Madness, Viking Quest (raid stages), Set Blast
If you are playing with a 100x spin multiplier during Raid Madness and raid 50 million coins from a village, Foxy at level 100 adds another 50 million on top — making that single raid worth 100 million coins.
🐯 Tiger — The Attack Specialist
Tiger is unlocked later than Foxy but is arguably the higher-value pet for most players, because attacks come up far more frequently than raids from the slot machine. Every time you land three hammers and attack an opponent’s village while Tiger is active, he adds a large coin bonus on top of whatever the attack pays out.
- What he does: Adds a bonus coin multiplier on every successful attack
- Level 1 bonus: +60% of attack coin value
- Level 80 bonus: +300%
- Max level (300) bonus: +410–417%
- Best event to use: Attack Madness, Tiger Tournament
Because attacks occur more often than raids in normal spinning, Tiger can generate more total coins per 4-hour session than Foxy at equivalent levels — particularly at higher village stages. Once you have Tiger at a mid-range level, many players switch to keeping Tiger as their default active pet outside of dedicated raid events.
🦏 Rhino — The Village Defender
Rhino does something completely different: instead of helping you earn more coins, he helps you keep the coins you already have. When Rhino is active and another player attacks your village, there is a percentage chance that Rhino will block the attack entirely, preventing your village buildings from being damaged even if you have no shields left.
- What he does: Percentage chance to block each incoming attack on your village
- Level 1 block chance: 10%
- Level 49 block chance: ~60%
- Max level (200) block chance: 70%
- Best time to use: When building an expensive village with low coin reserves and no shields, or when going offline for several hours
Rhino is not glamorous, but at higher levels he blocks 7 out of every 10 attacks. If you are sitting on a half-built village and cannot complete it in one session, activating Rhino before closing the app can save you hundreds of millions of coins in damage.
How to Unlock Each Pet
| Pet | Unlock Requirement | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Foxy | Reach Village Level 4 | Automatic — an egg animation appears when you hit level 4. Tap the egg to hatch Foxy. |
| Tiger | Complete the Beasts Card Collection | Once you finish the full Beasts set, Tiger’s egg becomes available in the Pets screen. |
| Rhino | Complete the Creatures Card Collection | The Creatures set includes some rare cards — see our Rare Cards guide for tips on completing it faster. |
Once a pet’s unlock condition is met, you will receive a notification to visit the Pets section. Tap the egg, and your new pet hatches at Level 1 ready to be fed and used immediately.
Pet Level & Reward Tables
Every pet starts at Level 1 and is upgraded using XP Potions. The higher the level, the bigger the reward bonus. Below are the confirmed bonus values at key milestone levels for each pet.
Foxy Level Milestones
| Foxy Level | Raid Bonus |
|---|---|
| 1 | +16% |
| 10 | ~+30% |
| 50 | ~+65% |
| 100 | +100% (doubles raid) |
| 135 | +102% |
| 400 (max) | +119% |
Tiger Level Milestones
| Tiger Level | Attack Bonus |
|---|---|
| 1 | +60% |
| 20 | ~+100% |
| 80 | +300% |
| 150 | ~+370% |
| 300 (max) | +410–417% |
Rhino Level Milestones
| Rhino Level | Block Chance |
|---|---|
| 1 | 10% |
| 20 | ~30% |
| 49 | ~60% |
| 100 | ~65% |
| 200 (max) | 70% |
Tip: Upgrading Tiger from Level 1 to Level 80 more than quintuples his attack bonus — XP Potions spent on Tiger early give some of the best returns in the game. Prioritise getting Tiger to at least Level 20 as quickly as possible after you unlock him.
Pet Food: How to Get It and How It Works
Pet Food (also called Pet Snacks) is the fuel that wakes your pets up. Without it, pets sit dormant and provide zero bonuses. Here is every way to earn pet food for free:
- Slot machine spins — Pet food occasionally appears as a reward when spinning
- Completing card sets — Finishing a full card collection rewards pet food alongside spins and coins
- Events and tournaments — Many events (especially Raid Madness and Attack Madness) offer pet food as milestone prizes
- Viking Quest stages — Certain stages drop pet food as rewards
- Daily free activation — The green pet food icon on the spin screen activates your pet free for 15 minutes once per day
- In-game store — Can be purchased with coins or real money, though free methods are sufficient for regular players
One Pet Snack activates a single pet for 4 hours of real time. The 4-hour timer runs continuously — you cannot pause it by switching to a different pet. Plan your pet food use around active play sessions rather than saving it for later, because those 4 hours tick down whether you are spinning or not.
Important: Pet food is shared across all pets. Feeding Foxy uses one snack from the same pool that feeds Tiger and Rhino. Manage your snack supply carefully if you want to use all three pets regularly.
XP Potions and Levelling Up Your Pets
Pets level up using XP Potions, not pet food. XP Potions are a separate resource earned from:
- Completing card sets (especially gold card sets)
- Event milestone rewards
- Chests — magical and royal chests sometimes contain XP Potions
- Village completion rewards at higher village levels
To level up a pet, go to the Pets screen, tap the pet you want to upgrade, and select the XP Potions from the lower section of the screen. Each level requires more potions than the last, so the cost scales significantly at higher levels.
You can check any pet’s current level, current bonus percentage, and the exact bonus you will receive at the next level by tapping the green [i] info icon in the pet screen. This is the most reliable way to decide which pet deserves your next batch of XP Potions.
Levelling priority suggestion: Get Foxy to Level 100 first (that is the point where she doubles your raids). Then invest in Tiger to at least Level 80. Rhino can be levelled steadily in parallel — every block-chance increase helps at higher village levels where attacks are more frequent and more expensive to repair from.
Pet Outfits: Rarities, Bonuses & Fusing (Village 210+)
The Pet Outfits feature unlocks at Village Level 210. Once unlocked, you gain access to a Closet in the Pets screen where you can dress each pet in outfit items that provide additional skill boosts on top of the pet’s base level bonus.
Outfit Slots
Each pet has six equippable outfit slots: Hat, Shirt, Shoes, Mask, Ring, and Collar. Only one item per slot can be worn at a time.
Outfit Sets
There are four outfit sets currently in the game: Charmed, Space, Viking, and Ninja. Equipping items from the same set on one pet amplifies the bonus further.
Rarity Tiers
| Rarity | Bonus Strength | How to Get |
|---|---|---|
| Uncommon | Lowest | Village level-up rewards (lower villages) |
| Common | Low | Village level-up rewards |
| Rare | Medium | Events, milestone chests |
| Epic | High | Special events, promotions |
| Legendary | Highest | Top-tier events, very rare drops |
Fusing Duplicate Outfits
If you collect duplicate outfit pieces, do not discard them. The game lets you fuse 2–5 identical items (depending on rarity) into a single higher-rarity item. Preview the skill boost before confirming the fusion — fused items provide significantly stronger bonuses than the originals. Note that some rarities are village-level locked and cannot be fused below certain stages.
Each outfit type buffs the ability that matches the pet: Foxy outfits add to raid bonus, Tiger outfits add to attack bonus, and Rhino outfits add to block chance.
Pet Crew: Using All Three Pets at Once (Village 200+)
The Pet Crew feature is one of the biggest quality-of-life upgrades in recent Coin Master updates. Available from Village Level 200, it allows you to activate Foxy, Tiger, and Rhino simultaneously — all three at the same time, for the same 4-hour session.
Before Pet Crew, you had to choose a single pet per session and miss out on the other two bonuses. With Pet Crew active, a raid gives you Foxy’s bonus, an attack gives you Tiger’s bonus, and every defensive block has Rhino’s protection — all in the same spin session.
How to Activate Pet Crew
- Reach Village Level 200
- Go to the Pets screen
- Feed all three pets individually (each requires its own Pet Snack)
- All three become active simultaneously for 4 hours
Pet Crew Reward Calendar
When the Pet Crew feature is active, you also gain access to a Pet Crew Reward Calendar. This is a limited-time calendar with five reward slots — pet food, XP Potions, spins, gems, and other in-game items — each collectible at 12-hour intervals. Always collect these on time, as the calendar expires.
Pet Crew triples the cost in pet food (three snacks per activation instead of one), so build up a good reserve of snacks before using it. The best time to run Pet Crew is during overlapping events — for example when Attack Madness and a card-collecting event run simultaneously — so you extract maximum value from all three pets in one session.
Best Pet Strategy Per Event
Choosing the right pet at the right time is what separates casual players from efficient ones. Here is a quick reference for which pet to activate during each major event type:
| Event | Best Pet | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Raid Madness | Foxy | Extra coin bonus on every raid stacks massively with the event’s own multipliers |
| Attack Madness | Tiger | Tiger’s +410% attack bonus alongside Attack Madness prizes = enormous coin haul |
| Tiger Tournament | Tiger | Tournament is specifically built around Tiger — always use Tiger here |
| Set Blast | Foxy | More raid coins = more chest-buying power = faster card set completion |
| Village Master | Tiger or Foxy | You need coins fast — both earn coins. Use whichever is higher level. |
| Building a new village (offline) | Rhino | Activate Rhino before you close the app to protect your coin stockpile overnight |
| Viking Quest (raid stages) | Foxy | Raid stages give the most XP and coins — Foxy amplifies each one |
| Village 200+ (any event) | Pet Crew (all three) | If you can afford three snacks, always run Pet Crew — the combined bonus far outweighs the cost |
One rule that covers most situations: never activate a pet and then stop spinning. The 4-hour timer runs in real time. If you activate Foxy and then get distracted, you waste the pet food. Always activate right before a proper play session — ideally at the start of an event where you plan to use a large batch of spins.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use more than one pet at a time?
Yes – but only from Village Level 200 onwards, using the Pet Crew feature. Below Level 200, you can only activate one pet per session.
What happens if I switch pets mid-session?
Switching to a different pet does not pause or reset the 4-hour timer on your current pet. The original pet continues counting down even while inactive. There is no way to save remaining activation time — once fed, the clock runs.
Which pet should I upgrade first?
Foxy first, because she unlocks at Village 4 and you will use her for a long time before Tiger is available. Once you unlock Tiger, shift your XP Potions toward him — his attack bonus scales faster and pays off quicker per potion invested at lower levels.
How do I get more XP Potions?
Complete card sets (especially Gold Card sets), participate in events with XP Potion prizes, and open Magical and Royal chests. The fastest way to stack XP Potions is to save spins for events that specifically offer XP Potions as milestone rewards.
Does Rhino work without shields?
Yes — that is exactly what Rhino is for. He provides a chance to block attacks even when you have zero shields. Shields and Rhino stack: if you have shields active and Rhino is awake, the shields absorb attacks first, and Rhino’s block chance applies if all shields are exhausted.
Do pet outfits work if the pet is asleep?
No. Outfits only boost the pet’s ability while it is actively awake (fed). An outfit on a sleeping pet does nothing. Always feed the pet after equipping a new outfit to actually benefit from the bonus.
Where is the Pets section in the game?
Tap the pet icon on the left-hand side of the slot machine spin screen. This takes you directly to the Pets menu where you can select, feed, level up, and equip outfits for Foxy, Tiger, and Rhino.
