The Pet Tarantula is a members-only land pet.
Appearance[]
The Tarantula has the obvious 8 legs with 4 on each side and a slight bend in each that can have 4 different patterns. Its abdomen is round, similar to that of a sphere, whereas the head is a small cylinder shape. The size and texture of the Tarantula's abdomen can be changed when buying your pet. This pet normally has 4 eyes instead of just 2 (and can be in 6 different colors), but can be changed to 5, 6, or 8, each positioned in different places on the head.

Trivia[]
- Like all other pets, once a tarantula is obtained, additional tarantulas can be purchased for only 400 Gems.
- There was a glitch in June 2015 that allowed pet tarantulas to be purchased from the pet maker for just 400 Gems, even if the player had not previously obtained one. This glitch has since then been fixed.
