Grow a Garden fans, there’s big news—one of the most loved pets in the game, the Racoon, is set to make a return! If you missed your chance to get this overpowered pet during the Blood Moon event, don’t worry. Here’s everything you need to know about the Racoon’s abilities, why it’s so powerful, and how you can still get your hands on it—even after the event is gone. Also check out our Grow a Garden Animals Tier List.


Why the Racoon Is One of the Best Pets in Grow a Garden

The Racoon isn’t just a cute companion—it’s one of the strongest pets in the game right now. Every 15 minutes, it duplicates fruits from other players’ gardens, letting you collect rare or valuable fruits for free. That means with just one Racoon, you can grow your fruit collection without doing anything extra.

Having a full team of Racoons? That’s borderline broken—players consider this pet one of the most powerful in the game. If you’re lucky enough to own one, you already know how useful it is. Originally, the Racoon was only available through the Blood Moon shop. But with the Bizzy Bee update replacing it, many players were left without a chance to grab the pet. So, how can new or returning players get the Racoon now?


How to Get the Racoon After the Event

Right now, the event that featured the Racoon is over, so the only method to obtain one is via trading.

  • Trade with other players who already own a Racoon.
  • Visit the Grow a Garden Discord server, where players are actively trading pets like Racoon for others such as Dragonfly or Queen Bee.
  • Look for giveaways – some players (like YouTubers or content creators) are gifting Racoon pets to their viewers or followers.

While trading is the only current method, it’s worth noting that the Racoon is becoming a rare and highly valuable pet. Expect to offer something good in return if you’re trying to get one.


When is Racoon Rerun in Grow a Garden?

Jandel, the game’s developer, recently teased the Racoon’s return on TikTok. He posted clips showing the Racoon and mentioned that while the egg it came in is removed, they’re thinking of ways to bring it back. He even said it would be sad to let it go permanently. There’s a strong chance the Racoon might reappear through:

  • A new Blood Moon shop in future events.
  • A traveling merchant, similar to what happened in the Easter event.
  • Or another limited-time feature where missed pets get a second chance.

So, if you missed out the first time, stay hopeful. Keep an eye on the official game announcements and TikTok hints from Jandel himself.


What You Should Do Now

  • Join the official Grow a Garden Discord to trade or find news first.
  • Watch out for new event updates or teasers.
  • Comment or share feedback—players influencing the dev’s decisions has worked before (like the Moon Mango buff).
  • If you’re lucky, someone might be generous enough to gift you a Racoon.

The Racoon is a top-tier pet in Grow a Garden and remains a favorite for a reason. With its ability to duplicate fruits, it offers a major edge for anyone looking to grow faster and smarter. While it’s currently only obtainable through trades, the developer has teased a return—so don’t lose hope. Whether you plan to trade, wait, or join a giveaway, now’s the time to act if you want to add this overpowered pet to your collection. Stay tuned, keep trading, and be ready—because the Racoon’s return might be closer than you think.
