Release notes for 3.9.8

New Pets: - Raccoon — a trash panda extraordinaire, raiding your desktop bins with expert paws and vanishing through portals before you can say ""not my lunch!"" - Anglerfish — a deep-sea troublemaker with its own built-in flashlight, snapping up snacks with style and even swashbuckling like a pirate when the mood strikes.

Events: - School Bus Pickup — a school bus rolls across your desktop, picks up every pet waiting at the curb, and drops them back off after a ride around the block.

Fixes & Improvements: - Your settings now stay put — event switches, liked pets and other preferences no longer reset themselves while the app is running. - Event switches and the frequency slider now take effect immediately, without restarting the app. - Leave a single event switched on and you'll get it every time, instead of waiting out the ones you turned off. - Events could stop appearing after you changed your pets — fixed. - The What's New window now appears once per update, not every time you open the pets window. - Nothing left behind: teleport portals always close, and an interrupted UFO abduction no longer leaves a red box on screen. - Pets no longer flicker when auto-rotation swaps the line-up. - The school bus now drives behind your pets instead of in front of them.
