Paintbrushes are how you change the look of your pet- From animated, to holiday- these are basically overlays that change your pets look. They do not pass down through genetics- your pet has its original genes. Think of it more like wearing clothes.

If you want to know what brushes there are,outcomes and how to get them you can go here!


You use a paintbrush my acquiring it by either buying it, from events.. or the other many ways.

Then you simply go to it in your inventory (its under the "Pet paints" tab)

   

 Then you just choose an adopt and click "choose this adopt" And it will change your pet into the paintbrush pet instead!
   

My solstice pet as an example ^^
