Pet emoji for every animal people keep
Dogs come in two drawings: the round face , which works like a sticker, and the full-body , which reads as a description (âwalking the â). is a groomed poodle, and guide dog and service dog show working dogs with a harness and a vest. There is no second dog breed and, unlike cats, no set of dog feelings: for a happy or sulky dog people pair with an ordinary smiley.
Cats get more: face, full-body, black cat, and nine cat faces that carry emotion the way smileys do, from to . The small pets are rabbits, hamster (which doubles for guinea pigs and gerbils, since neither has an emoji), mice, rat and hedgehog. For birds you have , parrot (used for budgies, cockatiels and macaws alike) and the chicks ; for the tank and bubbles; for the terrarium and for the tarantula keepers. and cover ponies and horses.
Around the animals sit the things of pet life: bone and yarn as the classic dog and cat toys, for rabbits, for feeding ( is what people use for bottle-fed kittens), for fetch, for walkies, for home and a pet bed, for collars and grooming, for bath day and fur on the floor, and for the bag on every walk.
What pet emoji mean in texts and bios
is the catch-all. On its own it means âmy petâ or âanimal loverâ; in a bio it marks a dog mum, a cat dad, a groomer, a rescue or a vet clinic; after a name in a message it means the message is from or about the pet. and from a girl or a guy usually mean affection or a nickname, the same way and do: âyou're my â is loyal and sweet, ââ can be cute or a little flirty. is the puppy-eyes face, the begging look, and is love at first sight for a kitten video.
Some animals carry slang you may not want on a pet post. means two-faced, means a snitch, is a meme frog before it is a pet frog. When you mean the actual animal, add a pet cue: or reads as a pet snake, as a pet rat. brown heart is the common âpaw heartâ colour; and are read as remembrance.
Vet visits, sick pets and the rainbow bridge
A vet update is told with stethoscope, (there is no vet emoji, so the health worker stands in), for the clinic, for shots, for tablets, after surgery, for a fever and mending heart for recovery. says the check-up went fine; says someone is not enjoying their medicine.
When a pet dies, the rainbow bridge is the picture almost everyone reaches for: alone, or , , and for a candle lit in memory. say the grief plainly, is for a grave or an anniversary, and marks the pet as a star now. A reply of or is understood by any pet owner.
How the pet emoji came to be, and what is still missing
Most of the classic set, and all nine cat faces, arrived together in Unicode 6.0 in 2010, carried over from the Japanese phone carriers of the 2000s, which is why there are nine cat moods and no dog moods at all. lizard was added in 2016 and hedgehog in 2017; parrot, bone and yarn in 2018; guide dog and service dog in 2019, proposed by Apple as part of its accessibility set; black cat in 2020 as a sequence of and joined by an invisible character, so very old phones show the two parts side by side.
Still missing: a guinea pig, a ferret, a goldfish and a budgie of their own, a dog bed, a leash, a cat tree, a litter tray and a vet. Until they arrive, and do the work, and that is what the combos below assume. The drawings also differ by phone, so the breed of or the colour of is whatever your keyboard draws; name the breed in words if it matters.

- black cat is not a character of its own: it is plus joined by an invisible joiner, which is why an old phone shows a cat next to a black square.
- hamster is the only rodent pet with a face emoji, so it has quietly become the emoji for guinea pigs and gerbils too, neither of which exists in Unicode.
