    You can increase your pet bag by taking the quest from the pet skills trainer

    in which you can either give her the required pet food
    or pet cage(pet cage purchased in boutique)

    and the quest can be taken multiple times
    although the pet food items required for each higher level become harder or more costly to find

    A cage costs 2 gold in the cash shop. That's about 200,000 coin if you buy gold through the auctioneer.

    Pet slot 3 require 20 Hay. You can get them off mobs as low as level 5, but they drop most frequently starting with level 22-30 mobs. Hay generally sells for around 5k, so 20 are only 100k coin in cost. So you're better off getting/buying hay rather than buying a cage.

    Pet slot 4 requires 50 Fruit. The lowest level mob that drops it is level 38. I frequently see fruit for sale at 4k, sometimes even 3k. That's 150k-200k, so again you're probably better off getting/buying fruit rather than buying a cage.

    Pet slot 5 requires 100 Fungus. Mobs start dropping it at level 60. This is pretty hard to find for sale, and it's almost always priced over 2k (200k for 100). So it'll probably be cheaper to buy a cage. Occasionally you'll see fungus sold cheaply though - a friend bought a batch of 70 at auction for I think just over 1k each.

    You can of course grind for these yourself. But I found that at the levels you'd want an additional pet slot, the mobs you're able to kill had low drop rates. You'll probably have an easier time grinding mobs closer to your level for regular loot, and using that money to buy hay/fruit/fungus/gold.

    The cage and material quests are mutually exclusive. If you use a cage for any of the above slots, you can no longer take that quest. e.g. If you use a cage to get pet slot #3, the hay quest is no longer available, the fruit quest is.

    Pet slots 6-10 can only be obtained with a cage. The super cage is 14 gold for 8 pet slots (up to a max of 10). So it's like you're getting 8 for the price of 7. You can get it if you want all the slots in a hurry. But compared to buying/grinding hay and fruit and buying the remaining 6 cages, I don't think you're really saving that much money.

    If you bought a cage and the pet trainer won't give you a quest to use it, you probably have the hay/fruit/fungus quest active. You have to trash that quest before you can get the cage quest. The reverse is also true if you took the cage quest but changed your mind and decided to collect the materials.

    I think that about covers it. I should collect all these and put them on my website...

    I got hay by making a store buying them for 1k each and 20 mins later i already had all 20 of them.... btw how many times has this question been asked? it would be better if someone made a thread explaining in detail and put one of those sticks or whatever they're called that keep's the thread in the top of the page, and call it "How to get Hay and more"

    , ain't there a way to increase it by level? I mean, I'm level 17 (very loooow), so when I'm, I dunno, level 30, I'll still have 2 slots?b:puzzledBut

    Indeed. Number of slots does not increase by level.

    You have to do the quest, or buy the cash shop item.
