The Squirrel in Grow a Garden gives a 2.5% chance to keep your seed when planting, making it a strong seed-saving pet.
The Squirrel is a Mythical pet in Grow a Garden, and it gives one of the most helpful passives in the game. When you plant a seed while having a Squirrel equipped, there’s a 2.5% chance you keep the seed instead of using it up. This small bonus can save you millions over time, especially if you’re planting rare or expensive seeds.
Let’s break down how the Squirrel works and why so many players try to get it.

Squirrel Passive Ability in Grow a Garden
The Squirrel gives you a 2.5% chance per planted seed to keep the seed instead of losing it. This means you can replant it again without needing to buy or find a new one.
For example, if you plant 100 seeds, about 2 or 3 of them might not get used up thanks to the Squirrel. This makes it one of the best pets for farming high-cost seeds like Dragonfruit or Midas Root.
Can You Stack Multiple Squirrels?
Yes, you can. Each Squirrel gives its own 2.5% chance. If you place more than one Squirrel in your garden, the total chance increases across all your crops. So if you have four Squirrels, you’re getting a better chance to keep seeds across the whole garden, but each seed still uses its own 2.5% chance per Squirrel.
Players often use many Squirrels at once to increase the effect.

How To Get the Squirrel Pet
You can only get a Squirrel by hatching a Mythical Egg, which costs 8,000,000 Sheckles. The chance of getting a Squirrel from the egg is 26.79%, so it is not guaranteed.
Here’s what you need to do:
- Buy a Mythical Egg from the pet vendor
- Hatch it and hope for a Squirrel
- Repeat if needed until you get one
Because of the cost, this is more of a late-game pet.
Does Leveling the Squirrel Help?
Yes. Feeding your Squirrel lets it level up and age, which can increase its power. While the exact bonus from aging is not confirmed, players have noticed better results from high-level Squirrels.
Even if the base chance remains 2.5%, a stronger Squirrel may give slightly better seed-saving results over time.
Why Is the Squirrel Worth Using?
The Squirrel might not seem strong at first, but its long-term value is huge. Saving seeds means:
- More profits
- Less spending on seeds
- Faster garden growth
If you are planting rare seeds often, even a few Squirrels can save you millions.
The Squirrel in Grow a Garden is a simple but powerful pet. It saves you seeds when planting, giving you more chances to grow without running out. It may be a bit expensive to get, but once you have a few Squirrels, you will start to notice a big difference in your farming profits.
If you plan on planting rare seeds often, this pet is worth the investment.
