Step-by-Step: Get the Tabby Cat

Step 1: Travel to Copper Canyon Island

Log in to Fish It and sail to the new Copper Canyon Island. From Fisherman’s Island, head toward Kohana Island first, then turn left. The island name will appear on your screen to guide you.

Step 2: Find the Pet Store and Talk to Clara

Once on Copper Canyon Island, locate the Pet Store — it’s right beside the Sheriff’s Office, behind the central lake. Look for the large shop sign. Inside, speak with Clara NPC, the Pet Store clerk. Just talking to her automatically satisfies the first requirement of the Helping Hand quest.

Step 3: Collect the Quest Items

The quest requires you to gather:

  • 20x Salmon
  • 5x Pet Collars

The best farming spots are the central lake on Copper Island and the smaller lake across the bridge in the upper area. Use your passive abilities and luck boosters while farming — these items aren’t super common, so every buff counts.

Step 4: Return to Clara and Claim Your Tabby Cat

Once you have all 20 Salmon and 5 Pet Collars, return to Clara and hand them in. She will reward you with the Tabby Cat pet immediately.

How to Equip the Tabby Cat?

  1. Open the Items menu
  2. Navigate to the Pets tab on the right side
  3. Select Tabby Cat and press equip

The Tabby Cat will follow your character around automatically, providing its +4% Luck buff while you fish.

All Fish It Pets (Copper Canyon Update)

For context, here’s how the Tabby Cat stacks up against the other seven pets added in this update:

All pets except the Tabby Cat require Founder Eggs, which cost Robux (109 Robux for 1 egg, 327 for 3, 545 for 5). The Tabby Cat is the only fully free pet.

Pro Tips for Completing the Quest Faster

  • Activate luck boosters before fishing for Salmon — they’re not guaranteed drops.
  • Fish the upper lake on Copper Canyon Island, not just the central one, to alternate spots.
  • Pet Collars can also drop while fishing, so keep your rod in the water between runs.
  • The quest is account-wide — you only need to complete it once.
