Petz: Dogz 2 and Catz 2/Bugs

In Dogz and Catz, while looking for requested items, you will find many butterflies and other bugs. Once you have caught them, you can go to Clara and release them into the flowerbeds (note that if there is already a bug there it will be replaced by the next one you put in) or take them to Tom at the Pawn Shop and sell them. Some bugs are rarer than others, and when you hit a milestone of different bugs you can have, you will get a new colour of Kimono (a coat which you can wear).

How to catch bugs
To catch a bug, first you must have received the bug cage from Victor. Then, go up to one and press when 'catch insect' appears at the bottom of the screen. Then, a metre will appear with a net over it. There will also be a yellow bar moving around, indicating the bug. When the bar is completely under the net, press. A picture of the button will also appear above the metre when you can catch the bug. If you sucsessfullly caught it, it gets put in your inventory.

Bug List
You can find a list of bugs in the Magic Encyclopedia, once it has been given to you, under Memo in the pause menu. There are 35 bugs altogether.

Times of the Day
Bugs stay in the same place, throughout the day and night. If you catch all the bugs in the area, the only way to make them reappear is to re-enter the area or trigger a cut-scene.

Bug Setups
When you enter a level, a setup is randomly selected. This means that if you find a bug in one place, you may be able to work out where other bugs will appear.

Whisker Woods
Whisker Woods is different to other levels, as it has four bug setups.

Zoo
The zoo is different to other levels, as it has two bug setups.

Mistakes in the Magic Encyclopedia
1. The Magic Encyclopedia says that the Yuke Butterfly is caught on Monolith Isle. It is actually caught in Bubble Cave.
