− | Due to it having the '''Amphibious''' trait, it should almost always be played on an aquatic lane, which is generally poorly defended in the early-game.

A good choice is {{PvZHLink|Sea-Shroom}}, as it can be played to destroy it relatively quickly on the second turn. Alternatively, tricks like [[Sunburn]], [[Berry Blast]], or {{PvZHLink|Squash}} can destroy it. {{PvZHLink|Sweet Potato}}, [[Hot Date]], and [[Whipvine]] can also move it out of the aquatic lane if you lack '''Amphibious''' plants. |

Origins
It is based on an octopus, a cephalopod mollusk of the order Octopoda, specifically the one on Neptuna's head.
Its name is a portmanteau of "octopus," the animal it is based on, and "pet," referring to its tribe and it being owned by Neptuna.

- Tribe: Pet Zombie
- Trait: Amphibious
- Abilities: None
- Set: Token
Card description
It's slimy, beady-eyed, and it leaves ink splotches wherever it goes. Neptuna loves it all the same.
Strategies
With
Octo-Pet itself does not have good stats for its cost, lacks synergy, and has no abilities. The only strong point it has is that it can get out on the field at turn 1, so any other method you get this fighter will remove that advantage and turn it into what is basically a rarer Dolphin Rider. If that is the case, Octo-Pet is simply utilized best as a traditional Amphibious zombie, being best for the aquatic lane and nowhere else.
Against
Octo-Pet is weak compared to its cost in terms of stats, but considering the circumstances it comes in, it can be quite a handful on turn 1 with the use of Octo-pult.
But even then, Octo-Pet is not a very hard fighter to take out after that; most soft removal cards and low-cost fighters can easily do the job. Moving it also works as it does with such fighters, but direct removal is just more reliable, especially with this zombie's low health.
Another option is to simply Bounce it. It isn't the most effective and may be harmful late-game, but in the early game, you can force your opponent to either replay it, or keep it in their hands and clog up space. Sadly, this can't prevent the damage done by some of the earlier turns, or on the turn Neptuna plays it.

Trivia
- Its flavor text is very similar to Camel Crossing's.
- It has the longest "When hurt" animation out of any fighter in the game.
- On Octo-Pet's card, its eyes resemble those of most zombies in the game, but in game, its eyes resemble curved arches like real-life octopuses.
- Before the Galactic Gardens set was released, there were textures for Ducky Tube Zombie in Octo-Pet's textures before it was even released.
- For some reason, aside from the color scheme and the crown, Octo-Pet looks fairly different from the octopus on Neptuna's head.
- It is part of the Pet tribe, yet it is not part of the Beastly class, which mostly corresponds with Pet cards.
