In Grow a Garden, some pets are so rare and powerful that they feel truly legendary. The Kitsune is the perfect example. As the very first Prismatic-tier pet in the game, it has one of the most complex and powerful abilities I’ve ever seen. It was a limited pet obtained from the Zen Egg, and it has the lowest hatch chance in the entire game.

This guide will cover the Kitsune’s mythical appearance and its incredible ‘Nine-Tailed Myth’ trait that combines mutation application with crop duplication.
🦊 Appearance
The Kitsune’s design is based on the mythical creature from Japanese folklore. It has a white body with red accents, a red aura around its head, paws, and tails, and most notably, it has nine tails. Interestingly, the in-game model actually has eight tails. According to folklore, a kitsune grows a new tail every century after turning 100, which means this pet is well over 800 years old! It’s a fantastic and detailed design that fits its Prismatic status.
✨ The ‘Nine-Tailed Myth’ Trait
The Kitsune’s passive ability is called Nine-Tailed Myth, and it’s a combination of several powerful effects. It’s similar to the Raccoon’s ability, but with a mutational twist.
- Every 22 minutes, the Kitsune travels to another player’s fruit.
- It mutates that fruit with the Chakra mutation.
- It then duplicates the mutated fruit and gives the copy to you, its owner.
- There is also a very rare (~1%) chance that it will apply the even more valuable Foxfire Chakra mutation instead.
This ability is absolutely incredible for obtaining rare mutations and crops at the same time.
