Best Gifts For All Pets In My Time at Sandrock

Relationship-building is a big part of My Time At Sandrock, where players can befriend or adopt various pets, plus build friendships or even romantic relationships with town residents. While building a friendship with pets takes time like romance does as an RPG with some of the most romance options, learning the best gifts for pets in My Time At Sandrock is a fast-track way to befriend or adopt them as pet companions or helpers who can aid players in finding items across the desert world.

In My Time At Sandrock, giving gifts to pets and talking to them is necessary to adopt and pet them. Each pet also has their preferred gift types, ranging from love to dislike gifts, so this list details the most loved gifts as determined by the best Relationship Points statistics. Additionally, it only examines pets accessible to all players as adoptable pets. Therefore, Gecko from the Lil Gecko DLC and the exclusive pet Fennec the Fox are excluded. It also excludes non-adoptable pets, like Sandy the camel and Captain the cat.

Coco

Coco is a pretty quirky owl that roams the town of Sandrock typically more at night than during the day. Coco might also stand out for some players looking for a different kind of pet companion than the game’s various cats or dogs. While players can only befriend X, the name of the raven belonging to Fang, one of My Time at Sandrock‘s romanceable bachelors, players can befriend and adopt Coco as a pet by raising their Relationship Points (RP) with the beautiful bird.

The best gifts for Coco include Large Desert Mudfish granting +13 RP and crafting a Bird Swing using a worktable. Players can also try gifting Coco food like sandfish and seeds.

Nemo

Nemo is a cute, blue-collared dog that some players might recognize as one of the playable animals in Party Animals as a collaborative character and the only dog that can be adoptable as a pet in My Time at Sandrock. Some of the best gifts for Nemo include a Camping Den, Pet Tunnel, and even a Shiny Scorpion, granting the highest RP.

However, it seems that food is also the way to Nemo’s heart as, perhaps unsurprisingly, it loves cooked meat products like Braised BBQ Ribs but will also especially enjoy food treats like Rib Gumbo, Sweet and Sour Pork, and Tomato Beef Brisket. Therefore, learning to cook in My Time At Sandrock is crucial to winning this dog’s affection.

Banjo

Banjo the cat seems to love to lounge, perhaps like any cat. As a result, many of the best gifts for Banjo include various types of comfortable-looking chairs or sofas, such as the Elegant Lounging Chair or Pet Sofa, all of which grant around 15 RP each.

However, Banjo also loves other gifts, including precious stones like Opal and Rosestone, which can grant around 9 or 10 RP, respectively. Banjo also enjoys playing with toys such as the Football Toy, which grants 11 RP, plus various kinds of threads, fibers, or canvas.

Macchiato

Macchiato is another cat that players can befriend and adopt in My Time At Sandrock. Again, some players may also recognize Macchiato as a character that also appears in Party Animals. Some of the best gifts for Macchiato include a Pet Sofa and Scratching Post, along with jewels like Diamond.

Players who enjoy cooking and sandfishing in My Time At Sandrock may also find it easier to befriend Macchiato as a cat who also loves various fish dishes like Fine Steamed Sandfish and Fine Tomato Fish, granting 14 RP each.

Meerkat

Getting a Meerkat in My Time At Sandrock can be tricky as players need to complete the Big Game Hunter quest, unlocked once players reach a certain relationship level with My Time At Sandrock bachelorette Elsie.

Meercats roam the desert lands in groups, and some of the best gifts for a Meercat include a Camping Den, Pet Castle, and Pet Tunnel. Meercats also love toys like the Knot Rope Toy, stones and ores such as Moonstone, and Aluminum Ore located in the Abandoned Mines, where players can find tin in My Time at Sandrock.
