    If you aren't planning to actively visit the PC, you should be absolutely fine, especially if your account is completely unknown. PCers are 90% of the reason that people ever get frozen for buying UCs. If you do want to visit the PC at all, what @(you need an account to see links) said is perfect advice. Otherwise just do what everyone else said and work on your account, work on a pet lookup, and just enjoy your new pet

    @(you need an account to see links) is the best PCer out there, take her advice.

    But yep, just gonna emphasize what everyone else said. Stay off the PC and don't make it obvious that your account is some lame-ass one (idk if it is, but just in case)

    @(you need an account to see links), could you link me to these lookups? This would be so useful for me!

    If you submit the pet lookup to Google it will cache almost instantly, I've done it with two or three pets recently and they cached by the next day.

    Exactly, especially since PCers tend to think that caches are the end all and be all of whether or not a pet is legit, lol.

    I'm amazed at how quickly the Google method works! I submitted mine a few days ago and sure enough, she's cached
    I always like to add some random nickname to my "thank you for letting me adopt!" part on the lookup too, I like to think it makes it a bit more convincing

    I've set up a whole new account to look like a legit and awesome main so that if I ever do transfer the pet to my main it's obvious my friend was a legit player who gifted to me. Though I'm loving the new main so much that I might make it my real one XD I'm going on it more than I go on my own main XD

    You could use a proxy and do a fake trade with yourself, unless you absolutely 100% need the account as a side. I feel like TNT is a lot more leniant with obviously bought pets if they are traded.

    There's a stupidly popular user right now (chances are if you're using a premade css you're using hers) who has an illegit uc as a permie. I know, because I bought the pet and traded it to her. She put a little "thank you" on the pets lookup with my name and she's been fine so far even though the pet's cache is clearly sketchy as hell. You could try something like that, play it off as a downtrade to you by a friend (even though I was not friends with this user lol i just wanted the pet they were trading).

    Why do you need to do up the pet page to look legit?
    I've never even touched/edited a legit or illegit pet page before, it seems like a waste of time.
