Mini pets

  Longing for a cute companion, but don’t want to spend a lot of NX to get a pet? Then you’ll be pleased to welcome mini pets into Erinn! Each mini pet costs a mere 1,000 NX and stays at your side for 30 days. Unlike normal pets, mini pets do not assist in battle—but that also means they never take damage or capture the notice of enemies, so you’ll never have to worry about healing them! Because they’re so adorable, mini pets grant a cuteness bonus—er, companion stat bonus to their owners. It’s their way of showing moral support.

  The Skeleton Maid comes dressed in a traditional maid’s uniform. Sometimes, she’s so busy cleaning (or is she simply daydreaming?), one of her bony arms falls off! The Petal Collar Dog is a miniature pinscher that sports the latest doggy fashion—a wreath of flower petals around its face. The Brown Explorer Cat dons a pair of on-trend goggles along with a cute neck bandana. Here’s the bonus: the accessories that mini pets wear come in random colors, so your mini pet won’t look identical to the dozens of others you’re bound to see frolicking around!

  Now, normal mini pets that you purchase from the in-game cash shop only stay with you for 30 days after their first usage. However, the newly updated Production Gachapon (5/19/2010) contains a whistle that will create a PERMENENT Skeleton Maid pet! Keep an eye out for future updates when the permanent versions of the Petal Collar Dog and Brown Explorer Cat become available.

  So whether you’re a diehard pet collector or a curious would-be pet owner, adopt a mini pet today!
  
  *Please note that mini pets will take up a character slot in your character selection window. Make sure you have enough room before you adopt a mini pet!

  Do they even have any inventory space? If all they do is give a stat bonus, even if they don't have a summoning time, then it's really useless.

  Desperate times call for desperate measures!

  Every time Nexon posts an update, I just get happier and happier that I quit Mabi.
  
  These are nothing more than cheap attempts to grab kid's money.

  even if they do have an inventory space using it would be dangerous, if you forget the 30 days are up there goes your stuff.

  What a joke.
  Though I really don't mind if it can take revival kits and can be summoned even in death.

  No inventory space, the companion bonuses are +7 to max HP/MP/SP, degrades to +1 at age 15 but keeps the 600 second timer, for what it's worth.
  
  (If I hadn't been out I'd have included that with the first post, but oh well)

  Of course, the only decent one among them is permanent through gachapon. Buh.

  Pika pikachu pi. Pika pi.
  
  (Crap, Pika just spent 14k NX on Fashion Gacha (Not bad because of the pets, but bad because of permanent one in Production Gacha))

  Then it's a joke. Limited time, just for looks, all it does is to just dance around and get companion bonus.
  
  Would have been better if they added in some bonus for exp/gold with these pets, the way some dancing games do for such pets.
