All Pets in Clash of Clans (2026 Guide)
In Clash of Clans, pets are specialized companions that accompany your Heroes into battle. They're not just cosmetic sidekicks — each one brings a unique ability that can shift the tide of a raid. From wall-busting Yaks to healing Unicorns and invisibility-granting Spirit Foxes, the Pet House opens up a new layer of strategy once you hit Town Hall 14 and beyond.
Unlike normal troops, pets are immortal during your village’s downtime. They don’t need to be retrained or regenerated. Instead, they’re always available to fight — unless they’re being upgraded. You can assign one pet per Hero, and each pet complements different strategies depending on your chosen loadout.

Summary - All Clash of Clans Pets
Pets are unlocked by upgrading the Pet House starting at Town Hall 14
Each pet can only be paired with one Hero at a time
Pets never die permanently and don’t require regeneration
Every pet has a unique passive ability or targeting behavior
Pets do not defend your village — they are for offense only
L.A.S.S.I
L.A.S.S.I is the first pet unlocked when the Pet House is built. She’s a ground unit that leaps over walls and targets buildings or nearby enemies. L.A.S.S.I will stick close to her Hero and attack anything within 2.5 tiles. If her Hero is knocked out or recalled, she switches to free-roam mode and targets the nearest building. While she’s not the strongest pet in damage, her wall-jumping mobility makes her a versatile early-game option.
Electro Owl
Unlocked at Pet House level 2, the Electro Owl is a flying unit that fires chain lightning at enemies — hitting a second target for 80% damage. It mimics the targeting of its assigned Hero and floats just behind them. The Owl can’t trigger traps on its own but can be damaged by them. If the Hero goes down or is recalled, the Owl becomes independent and attacks the nearest building or enemy.
Mighty Yak
Available at level 3 Pet House, the Mighty Yak is a high-health wall crusher. It deals massive bonus damage to walls and rams into nearby buildings on arrival. Yak prioritizes targets within 7 tiles of its Hero and becomes enraged — gaining extra speed and damage — if that Hero dies. It won’t enrage if the Hero is recalled, only if they’re defeated. It’s a strong pairing for Heroes that get up close, like the Barbarian King.

Unicorn
Unlocked at level 4 Pet House, the Unicorn acts as a personal flying Healer for your Hero. It follows its assigned Hero and restores health throughout the battle. If the Hero is knocked out or recalled, it can still heal other nearby troops — or stay idle if there’s no one left to help. Its healing is consistent across all targets, whether Hero or regular troop.
Frosty
Frosty becomes available at Pet House level 5 (Town Hall 15). This frosty pet spawns Frostmites — mini-creatures that slow down enemy defenses and units. Frosty himself also slows enemies with his attacks. He prioritizes targets within 4.5 tiles of his Hero and behaves independently if the Hero is defeated or recalled. Frostmites always prioritize defensive buildings.
Diggy
At level 6 Pet House, Diggy joins your pet roster. Like a Miner, Diggy tunnels under walls and stuns defenses upon surfacing. He mirrors his Hero’s target and can retarget to a new Hero if the original one is defeated. If his Hero is removed via Recall, Diggy becomes autonomous and attacks the nearest structure or troop in range.
Poison Lizard
Unlocked at level 7 (Town Hall 15), the Poison Lizard spits venom at enemy troops and Heroes, applying damage over time and slowing effects. It can attack buildings too, but without poison or slow effects. It prioritizes enemy Heroes and Clan Castle troops within 6.5 tiles of its Hero and becomes a free unit when no threats remain. It’s ideal for anti-Hero defense during raids.

Phoenix
Once you reach level 8 Pet House, Phoenix becomes available. She starts each battle as an invulnerable egg and only hatches when her Hero is knocked out — reviving them temporarily with invincibility. Once revived, the Hero can still use abilities but will be KO’d again after the invincibility ends. Phoenix continues fighting as an air unit after hatching, following similar targeting logic to other pets.
Spirit Fox
The Spirit Fox arrives with a level 9 Pet House (Town Hall 16). She grants periodic invisibility to both herself and her Hero, with cooldowns based on her level. If the Hero is gone or recalled, she can still cloak herself. She targets buildings or enemies within 4.5 tiles of her Hero, but goes into free attack mode if unpaired. This pet enables stealth-style attacks and creative raid entries.
Angry Jelly
At level 10 Pet House (Town Hall 16), you unlock the Angry Jelly — a floating jellyfish that brainwashes its Hero into prioritizing defenses, mimicking Royal Champion targeting. While brainwashing is active, Angry Jelly is invulnerable and untargetable. After the brainwashing ends, it becomes a normal flying attacker and can be damaged. It will defend its Hero if they’re under fire, making it a reactive and powerful support pet.
Sneezy
The final pet, Sneezy, becomes available at level 11 Pet House (Town Hall 17). This bat-like creature periodically sneezes out "Boogers" that damage buildings. When her Hero is knocked out, Sneezy becomes enraged — turning into a close-range screecher with high DPS. She continues spawning Boogers during this state. Despite a weak rage bonus (1%), her transformation can still turn the tide in longer battles.
