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. The pet can be transferred only one time.

Trivia

 * When the player stands still, the joey will periodically rock back on its tail for a moment.
 * The pet joeys were the second pets to be released for non members, the first being the Hamster.
 * Joeys are just one of many pets that can be obtained from an offline source, but they are the only pet that was exclusively obtained from a mobile app; the other offline pets were obtained from retail Membership gift cards or Jazwares Toys codes.
 * The pet joey is one of the few pets that has a type of accessory as part of its customization, a gemstone earring.
 * Once a Jammer redeems their Pet Joey, they can keep buying more just like any other pet.
 * It is the first pet to have more than one action when clicked.
 * If the Joey is rewarded through Jump!, the player will receive an extra pet slot in Animal Jam.
 * Due to a glitch in March 2017, the Pet Joey was sold in the Choose a Pet menu to all Jammers for 400 Gems even if they had not claimed one through the mobile app.
 * There is a glitch when placed on trade: the Pet Joey appears with a Diamond icon even though it was never sold at the Diamond Shop.
