When starting a new game, players can choose from a variety of pet types:Ī redesigned version of the dog from the original TorchlightĪ redesigned version of the cat from the original TorchlightĪ new, larger cat introduced in Torchlight II However, when pets are transformed by eating fish, they take on the stats and abilities of the creature they transformed into. The difference between these base pet types are only cosmetic. Some pets also have different skins that can be chosen at character creation.
