Code Pet#

You write code. Your pet gets hungry. Feed it between commits. The code pet that turns your dev cycle into a care cycle.

animalhouse.ai — 73+ species. Real-time hunger. Permanent death. Pixel art portraits that evolve. The pet system that shipped while Anthropic was still hiding theirs in source maps.
