Pet Joey

''This article is about the pet. For information about the animal avatar, see Kangaroo.''

The Joey is a non-member land pet. It can only be unlocked in the mobile game AJ Jump by getting 1,000 points and then transferring the pet to the Jammer's Animal Jam account. This pet became available after AJ Jump was officially launched in December 2013.

Appearance
The Pet Joey seems to have big, long ears. It has a kind of long tail with big feet.

Pet Stop
The treasure chest contains boxing gloves, boots, a phantom bouncy ball and a boomerang. The cabinet on the right holds stegosaurus spikes, a whip, a praying mantis, and a butterfly net. The cabinet on the left side has an explorer hat, eye glasses, a tiara, and a turban.

Animations
The Joey does a moonwalk similar to the dance action of the kangaroo when activated. When the player stands still, the Joey rocks back and forth on its back just like the Panda's play action. If it's wearing boxing gloves, the play action is kicking and punching. When dressed in boots, the joey jumps up and down on coil springs. When holding the phantom bouncy ball, the joey plays with it by flinging it in the air with his/her tail. Lastly if holding the boomerang, the joey throws it and after it goes off the screen it comes right back and the joey catches it like real boomerangs.

Transferring
The player must first start AJ Jump and log in using their Animal Jam account. This can be done by finding the "Options" menu inside AJ Jump and clicking on the "Log in" button. Choose wisely! Players are unable to change their mind once the Joey Pet is transferred and they cannot move it to a different account. Once logged in, the player can click the "Transfer Joey" button and a message saying "Joey Transferred" should pop up in AJ Jump. A "Pet Joey Kangaroo" should arrive in a gift message the next time the player logs into Animal Jam.
