What I expect of you who's looking for a guide for such a relaxing game(???)

You should know a bit about the game right now! This is not a tour on the options and settings and keynotes or whatever. Those are things you can explore by yourself. This guide will only include tips that will most likely be obvious to some, but not to you hehe

I'm sorry. I don't mean to be a jerk.

This game is both a Clicker and an Idler!

The most common mistake is forgetting that this game is also a clicker:

I understand that we may want to go idle after we buy that first cat. It's so cute, but life continues and some of us might have to touch grass (ew). If this resonates with you, EXIT THE GAME BEFORE YOU LEAVE.

Your pets will poop. No one will feed them. No one will clean their poop. Your screen will be a poop-fest, and all your pets will die.

Just kidding, they won't. But with how expensive medicine is, you probably won't save them no matter how you grind in the early game. They won't die, but they will be a burden.

So, before you get both the broom and the feeder, exit the game before you leave!

Milking 'em pets up for some Rainbow action

This is supposed to be a cute game, but I know some of you min-maxing perverts want to get rich quick. It is super simple, and this is how you want to progress:

Check the list of animals, and take note of those that can be unlocked with simply getting prerequisite pets to adulthood, or simply by earnings.
Treat the game as a clicker until you reach Fox (if you're lazy and sane) or Red Panda (if you're mid-lazy and not that sane), or Slime (shout-out to min-maxing perverts out there). What I mean by this is actively play by walking your pets. They sometimes drop 100 coins which will save you time in unlocking the first three pets I mentioned.
Always prioritize them milkables. Do not spend your coins on a lesser earning animal if you already unlocked a higher one. DO NOT NAME YOUR PETS YET. YOU WILL GET ATTACHED AND WON'T BE ABLE TO SELL THEM.
Don't mind rarities yet. You will be able to get whatever you want in just a matter of a few hours.
We want to get to our first Panda as quick as possible, but if we do have to step away, buy all facilities except the breeding one. That's the last thing that we need.
The feeder upgrades are useless after cabbage so don't bother upgrading it further than that. The feeder has been patched. It's worth upgrading now too. You can get Paw Cookies just for the cuteness. Broom and Bees are always good investments.
Once you get to Pandas, get the breeding station. At this point, you probably don't need any tips from me anymore since the only thing left to do is breed, breed, breed. Don't bother with the animals you skipped unless you want to get some achievements quickly. If you focused on Pandas, you'll get to them quicker anyway.
I have no numbers for how the rarity pulls are being calculated. I once left the game drawing on cats for 2 hours and I didn't get a single rainbow. So, with a bit of luck, you'll get a few Gold or Red Pandas. Once you have those, breed them up.
The most important thing you need to know is that you can breed Pandas from Gray to Red. They will cross the threshold of rarity once they reach the minimum earnings for each color. This means that your Gold Panda, if bred enough and they reached 12,500cpm, will turn Red.
The max cap for Red Pandas is 33,327cpm. If bred more than that, you'll lose out since the earnings won't get any higher. I also never experienced breeding Rainbows, so it's always going to be up to RNG.
Just stack on maxed Red Pandas until you get your first Rainbow Panda. After that, breed the Rainbow Panda with all the other maxed Red Pandas. Don't worry because they will never turn any other color than Rainbow. One Rainbow is all you need when you breed, and the babies will always turn Rainbow.
Once you bred the Rainbow Panda with the maxed Red Pandas a few times, a single click will drop you hundreds of thousands, or even millions. At that point, I have no doubt---

YOU'LL BE GETTING RAINBOWS!

IN PROBABLY A FEW HOURS OF AGONIZING PULLS

P.S. Rather than clicking on "Buy Multiple" and then choosing the rarity that you want, just spam click really fast on "Buy Again". It is so much faster than waiting for the game to continuously pull pets. You will get a prompt once you pull a Red or a Rainbow, but be careful on clicking "Continue". You should click "Cancel" if you want to keep the high-rarity pet. If you're just starting and Gold pets are precious to you, then please ignore this.

Because Rainbows do not have earning caps. This means that we are opening up a space in our pasture for more earnings.

i still don't understand why should breed rainbow with red max? why just keep the red max?

Correct, you can't breed quality 1-4 into quality 5 (rainbow), you can only get rainbow quality when buying, or when breeding a rainbow with any other quality.

Upgrading quality only works for quality 1-4, since their income caps at just below the starting income for rainbow pets, only rainbow pets have uncapped income.

That's right! Economy in this game is broken as soon as you hit Panda. No walls to break--it's just a matter of patience in breeding maxed CPM Pandas and then breeding them with Rainbow Pandas. Nothing much to do beyond that.

And yes. There's no current way to breed Rainbows. But, with how much coin will flow once you have three to four Red Pandas, I'm pretty sure one will pull a Rainbow Panda soon enough. I pulled my first after spending around 800mil. Sounds daunting but it took no time for me to save.

Makes sense, so just use the money from the 33k CPM to just make sure you can get as much money as possible, effectively being able to buy a panda every like 20 seconds.

So you can't *breed* into a rainbow, just make enough money to buy one more easily?

Apologies! What I meant by "stack on maxed Red Pandas" is to keep getting Red Pandas up to 33,327cpm until you get your first Rainbow Panda. After that, breed the Rainbow Panda with those maxed Red Pandas for maximum efficiency. You'll have to wait an hour and a half to get the Rainbow Panda to adulthood every time you breed it so you want to have the maximum cpm possible every breeding instance.

Maxed Red Panda and a Basic Gray won't do you any good. It's just gonna breed another Red Panda with 33,327cpm. You'll then have to wait for it to turn into an adult for it to earn.

When you say "Stack on maxed red pandas" Do you mean "Breed the max reds With the max reds" until it breaks? What if you breed a max red with like... a basic gray. I assume that won't work as well?
