Pets and Achievements Galore – The Perfect Valentine’s Day!

The hubby and I decided to take a work break today and have some fun playing WOW. I was super excited when I logged onto my account and saw that for Valentine’s Day he got me the Cinder Kitten from the Blizzard Store and 200 Papa Hummel’s Old-Fashioned Pet Biscuits. The kitten is so cute and I have wanted it since it was released and I ran out of biscuits like 2 weeks ago so I am glad I am fully stacked again. My hubby is the best!

Before we started playing I logged onto my alts who have been camping out in Sholazar Basin and The Cape of Stranglethorn to check on my rare spawn pets. I logged into the Cape and it started raining. I got to battle 3 Baby Apes. They were all common, but after almost 2 weeks of camping I’m just ecstatic to get any Baby Ape!

I then logged onto my alt in Sholazar to take a look. I made a pass around The Savage Thicket, but didn’t see any pets. I took one more pass around and there it was…an Emerald Proto-Whelp! I went and captured him and 2 more had spawned. I battled them too, but all three were poor quality. I don’t care though. I got my whelp and am so happy.

My hubby was laughing at me after I captured the second pet. He said I was acting like a kid opening their presents on Christmas morning. Yeah, I may have been a little excited, but after two weeks of camping I had them. I can’t believe they both popped on the same day. Talk about the perfect Valentine’s Day! I now have an alt parked in Felwood camping the Minifernal. I’m still checking on the Scourged Whelping too.

During the day we also managed to kill a lot of Champions in Pandaland. I managed to get some more rare items from them that were on my list so that made me quite happy.

We managed to kill so many rares because we were flying around doing the Riches of Pandaria Achievement. We both managed to finish the achieve, but it took a bit longer than we wanted. We had all the waypoints from Wowhead, but in the end we were missing one item. Took us a while to figure out which one it was, but eventually the achieve was complete. We also started looking for the lost treasures hidden throughout Pandaria. I got the achieve Finders Keepers so I still have quite a few left to find.

I also managed to grab a couple more archaeology achieves and we picked up the achieve Restore Balance. The most fun we had though was completing the achievement I’m In Your Base, Killing Your Dudes. The hubby hadn’t done anything for the Dominance Offensive yet so after a few starter quests we went to kill some Alliance champions. The hubby received a Blood-Soaked Invitation as loot and has decided this is the push he needs to make a non healing spec on his Shaman.

So all in all, this was an EXCELLENT day of playing WOW.
