As Valentine’s Day approaches, MONOPOLY GO! is putting pets centre stage with its new ‘Pets Season’—a headline collaboration that’s captivating mobile gamers and animal lovers alike. While the RSPCA’s involvement brings an important welfare message, it’s the in-game celebration of pets and play that’s grabbing attention across the UK.
MONOPOLY GO! Pets Season: The Game Event Everyone’s Talking About
The global phenomenon MONOPOLY GO! has launched its highly-anticipated Pets Season, inviting millions of players to celebrate the joy of pets just in time for Valentine’s Day. The event mobilises the game’s vast community to show their love for animals, with exclusive in-game content and a charitable twist.
Players can collect a new animal-themed shield and help raise funds for the RSPCA by passing GO collectively five million times before 4 March, with a special donation boost if the target is met. It’s a unique opportunity for UK gamers to make a difference while enjoying one of the world’s most popular mobile games.

RSPCA’s Role: Pets, Play and Responsible Ownership
While the main event is the MONOPOLY GO! Pets Season, the RSPCA’s partnership brings an added layer of purpose. The charity is using the campaign to highlight animal welfare and responsible pet ownership, as well as the vital role of play in pet rehabilitation.
Lauren Bennett, Scientific and Policy Officer at the RSPCA, commented:
“We’re widely known as a nation of animal lovers – and the fact that almost as many of us are thinking of getting a Valentine’s Day gift for our pet as our partner shows the love and fondness we have for our animals.”
Rescue Pets Take the Spotlight
To mark the occasion, six rescue pets in the RSPCA’s care have been named after MONOPOLY GO! characters, each hoping to find a loving home this Valentine’s Day:
- Mr Monopoly: Charismatic Bengal-cross tabby cat, Bath & District Branch
- Scottie: Energetic young blue crossbreed dog, Ashley Heath Animal Centre
- Tycoon: Athletic American Bulldog cross, Ashley Heath
- Duke: Shy but stunning longhaired cat, Block Fen Animal Centre
- Nibbles: Curious rabbit with a special spirit, Bristol Animal Rescue Centre
- Loop: Friendly Syrian hamster, Newbrook Farm, Birmingham
Why This Matters
This collaboration demonstrates how gaming and animal welfare can come together for a cause—encouraging millions to learn, play, and give back. With nearly as many people considering Valentine’s gifts for pets as for partners, the nation’s love for animals is clear.
Players can get involved, support the RSPCA, and enjoy the new Pets Season by downloading MONOPOLY GO! on Apple or Android.
