Kommentar von Warbane

Since you can only choose one pet each year, you'll the earliest you can get this will be the Children's Week of 2009, given you've gotten two the last two years. If you don't have any yet, you won't be able to get until 2011, when it is likely that there will be a third expansion, and the quest to get one might even have been removed.

This gives an advantage in achievement points to those who have been playing wow for longer.

It is unfair in the sense that it gives some people an advantage and therefore others are disadvantaged.
On the other hand, I'm sure that some players feel that they should receive some of 'bonus' for their past endevours - however it kinda defeats the whole 'WotLK will put all players on an even playing field again'.

Kommentar von elilla

Wonder how this will work for those of us who've had to destroy our pets for bag space for various tradeskills/flask/potion storage, and other misc. gear for raiding. Nothing like 3 sets of gear, and never enough room to store everything.

I'm guessing out of luck.

Kommentar von Tamika

this achievement is currently bugged. if you see the achievement tracks items but not spells so if you have pets (like I do) and learn them they won't count. Dont use them until this gets fixed ;)

Kommentar von 134734

This achievement should be changed to any one of those pets, not all 3. Its going to be a year or so until we actually see someone with a Violet Proto-Drake.

Quoting tigole:
"The achievement still exists. It's just not required for the Children's Week "Meta" achievement."

I gained Sleepy Willy during this years Children's Week. When I cranked up the patch this morning I noticed his name has changed to just "Willy", and doesn't populate the quest (since it's looking for SLEEPY Willy).

I've summoned him thinking that that would do the trick to no avail, but not sure what else there is to do with him....

Kommentar von 95359

THANK GOD i was worried i wouldnt be able to get my proto drake

Kommentar von Winged

This achievement now correctly gives you credit for the pets you've learned.

Kommentar von 327258

If like me you have deleted any pets like these- be warned blizz will not reinstate them.
Unlike quested pets which can be redeemed via stable masters.

Kommentar von 322767

I'm 100% certain I gained the sleepy willy pet in last years children's week. Upon searching my bank/bags I am unable to find it. So the question is "Has it vanished?" I read threads about pets/mounts vanishing during a patch just before WK came out. At that time my account was not active. Any thoughts?

Kommentar von chickensrool

i talked to a blizz GM about 4 days ago and they said "when time comes we will take it out of the main achievement" so im guessing we dont gotta wait (captain obvious)

Kommentar von Noobta

As of the latest build, Veteran Nanny is once again not required for "For The Children"

Kommentar von 337276

to start the quest for the pets you have to go to shattrah. There is a forge in lower city which i think the orpahnage is to the right if you are facing it and then the nanny is inside the building for you to pick up the quest for one of the companions

Kommentar von 228232

got this achievement on 1/5/2009, almost sure its world first :p check armory for Ideon on Skullcrusher EU for proof

Kommentar von Sajakain

Yes there are two separate quest chains for Children's Week that reward pets upon completion. One starts in Lower City of Shattrath and the other starts in Stormwind, in Cathedral Square. However doing both quest chains will not reward two separate pets for this achievement.

The quest chain that starts in Shattrath City, (Lower City), can be found by talking with Orphan Matron Mercy.
The quest chain that starts in Stormwind, (Cathedral Square), can be found by talking with Orphan Matron Nightingale.

Both of these quest chains will start with you talking to the respective acquired orphan. Also keep in mind that each Matron will give you a separate orphan whistle. The one in Shattrath will give you a Draenei Orphan Whistle and the one in Stormwind will give you a Human Orphan Whistle.Then the orphan will give you three quests to go visit three separate locations. After you complete the three, the orphan will then give you two more quests. The chain that starts in Shattrath will require one more visiting location and a toy. The chain that starts in Stormwind will require another visit and some ice cream. After you complete these two quests you will be asked to return the orphan to their respective Matrons.

=================

As far as obtaining the pets go, I completed the quest chain in Shattrath first. My reward choices were one of the three pets required for this achievement:

1. Elekk Training Collar: "Peanut"
2. Sleepy Willy: "Willy"
3. Egbert's Egg: "Egbert"

I then went to complete the quest chain that starts in Stormwind and instead of offering me a 2nd pet for the achievement, here is was I was offered:

1. Piglet's Collar
2. Rat Cage
3. Turtle Box
4. Curmudgeon's Payoff

Although the description of Curmudgeon's Payoff was comical, I chose the Turtle Box personally.

=================

So as far as being able to obtain two pets for this achievement in one Season, it isn't possible. You will have to wait for three separate seasons. Good luck hunting and don't forget to load your orphan up on sugar before returning it to the Matron!

you can do both outlands quest line and stormwind quest line. You do get a pet at the end of each quest string but only the outlands quest line gives you the pets for this achievement. stormwind quest line gives differemt pets. Also after you turn in quest lines you can get the whislte again just need to talk to the orphanage npc

Kommentar von savagy

this has to be the craziest achiev ever... 3 years to complete

Kommentar von 47860

I did see a player get this achivement today, missed the name though, on Ju'bei thos, so it is possible to get atm if you have completed the quest twice before already.

Kommentar von 276562

doesnt childrens week happen twice a year?

Kommentar von 172144

Due to there being separate quest lines for this quest, you are able to an additional two pets a year if you use the Faction Change service and complete both versions of the Shattrath quest, Stormwind quest and Orgrimmar quest, which means you can get an extra pet toward this achievement:
A Warden of the Horde, Back to the Orphanage
A Warden of the Alliance, Back to the Orphanage

Kommentar von louie123

How do i get that ?

Kommentar von Luckbox

Why is this not a Feat?

Characters made in June 2011 or later won't be able to have this achievement until May of 2014?

I'm all for RNG achievements, very long grind achievements, very hard achievements, all of that. But something that takes literally 35 months in certain cases should not be a regular achievement. This should be a feat.

Kommentar von Tropix

The NPC in Orgrimmar that gives the quest for this event can now be found in The Drag.

Kommentar von 822608

Ok, I'm a bit choked, doing this one on the alliance side. Did the first 2 years of it, and just did year 3. Peanut the baby Elekk ........ is no longer in the list of pets to get. How are we supposed to get this achievement when they take away one if the components?

Kommentar von 822608

Yeah, forgot about the Shattrath side of the quest. picked up Peanut off that one... And Peanut was definitely NOT in the list of pets from the SW quest. But there are 2 new pets available, plus an optional bag of 5g for those, (i can only guess) that have all the pets already.

Kommentar von 818002

So im a bit confused, is it still true that you can only get one companion a year?

Kommentar von 823142

is it still possible to get this achievement? since there are new pets now? if not, they should move it to feats of strength

Kommentar von GTMistral

You can still complete this achievement from the 2011 Shattrath quest line, starting at the orphelina found of the eastern side of the city. It's part of the Lower City of Shattrath, north side of the eastern bridge. Although they added a new pet this year : Beinchen.

Kommentar von 387118

Nice addition of Legs. However, if you're going for this achievement, Legs is not a part of it.

I had no pets from the Shat nanny, so instead of choosing Legs, I chose Egbert. And in the next 2 years, I'll pick Peanut and Willy.

...Then I can get Legs! (Wait. That could sound very bad, out of context.) >.>

Kommentar von Syluxx

I wonder, (And seriously hope..!) if Blizzard is going to do the same thing with these pets as with the other ones in the recent events; make them purchaseable from a vendor. Cause by the looks of it, if I want every Shattrath pet for example, I'd have to wait til' 2014.
No thanks.

Kommentar von 939963

I choose Sleepy Willy this time, but it gives me the creeps Y--Y

Kommentar von Threepoint14

I may have missed it, but I didn't see anyone mention this... in terms of actual calendar time it only takes 2 years for the 3 pets.

For example in my case:
2010 = 1st pet
2011 = 2nd pet (1 calendar year)
2012 = 3rd pet (2 calendar years)

Kommentar von Cyclops727

How To Get This Achievement In One Year Instead of Three.

Ordinarily it's only possible for one character to get three pets each year: One from the classic Azeroth quests (Schweinehalsband, Rattenkäfig, Schildkrötenkiste, or Schneckenhaus), one from the Outland quests (Elekkhalsband, Ei des Kolumbus, Schläfriger Willy, or Beinchen), and one from the Northrend quests (Neugieriger Wolvarwelpe or the Neugieriges Gorlocjunges). But you know how in Mists of Pandaria all of the non-combat pets on your account will be shared amongst your characters? If you run a series of alts through the quests and pick different pets on each one, you'll have all the pets on all your characters once the Mists of Pandaria content patch hits. (Or, at the latest, once Mists itself does.)

Kommentar von albatross11

as from this year this achievement is totally doable from 0 to 100% in one year. you need only 4 characters to pick each one a diferent companion from each orphan and wait till pandaria to merge them all in a single bundle... if you don't have enought high levled toons you can

2 lvl 68+ (cold weather flyers) to do northrend so each one picks a diferent orphan

3 doing outland orphan quests (you don't pick the snail)

4 doing SW orphan quests (the 4th one can be de lowest lvled toon, which will pick the snail)

Kommentar von 974417

BEFORE doing the Dalaran orphan chain, check which one you did last year. You can check by finding either the Curious Wolvar Pup or the Curious Oracle in your companions tab. Make sure you do the opposite quest chain or you will not get a pet for this year. I did the Wolvar again this year (without checking first) and didnt get offered a pet for my efforts. Guess I have to wait another year.

Kommentar von DFrost14

*WARNING*
You will not get this achievement if you purchase the pets from the AH (under the battle pets). I was short only Peanut and purchased him last night and did not receive this. I summoned him and even fought with him and nothing. Do not waste the gold if the achieve is the only reason you are buying it.

Kommentar von JinJin

Purchasing a player sold battle pet of any of these doesn't count for the achievement. The achievement requires obtaining the item that teaches each pet. i.e. Elekk Training Collar vs Peanut (item vs battle pet).

I know cause I tried =(

Kommentar von Mirrodin

Well i didn't find any post about it so i go ahead and post it anyway.

I found in the ah Peanut the elekk pet and i bought it in the thought of getting credit for this achievement.........
Oh well bad news are that i didn't receive any credit so i just wasted 1500g. :(

Kommentar von holylink718

It should be noted that buying a caged version of these pets does NOT grant credit towards this achievement. If you re-read the text, its says "Acquire Egbert's Egg, Sleepy Willy, and Elekk Training Collar on one character," not "acquire each pet in your pet journal." If you buy the caged version, you do have the pet, but you never had the item required.

I just tried this (found them for pretty cheap on the AH), and can confirm that I did not get the achievement, even though I "learned" them all on the same toon.

Hope this helps save people some money.

"Purchasing a player sold battle pet of any of these doesn't count for the achievement. The achievement requires obtaining the item that teaches each pet. i.e. Elekk Training Collar vs Peanut (item vs battle pet)"

People need to stop downranking the above comment. Trying to mislead people by letting them believe that they can get the achievement from purchasing the battle-pet version of these pets is very dishonest. Wowhead is a place to share information that is accurate, not a way to scam or mislead the community.

Kommentar von Yagamimoon

It would be perfect is he called me "Uncle Taniara" T_T

Kommentar von StansDad

You cannot buy the pet from the AH or from another player - If you read the wording carefully you will see that the achievement does not require you simply get the pet, but to acquire the item which enables you to learn the pet; i.e Egbert's Egg for Egbert, Sleepy Willy for Willy and the Elekk Training Collar for Peanut.
Hence you must complete the Shattrath Children's Week quests

Kommentar von Necronyma

i dont know why everyone tells you it takes 3! years to complete....you have to do it in 3 different years, doesnt mean it take that long..

See: you get a pet(instant, not a year to finish)
Wait a year
get u'r second pet
Wait a year
third pet-done

So: how many years have u needed for it? TWO! (not a year, not 35/36 months)

Kommentar von rzzr

Word of warning. You need to do this ach on one character. It's not like some of the later achievements that are account wide (looking at you Timeless Island). Will take 3 childrens weeks to do.

Kommentar von SoCalWoWGal

To get credit for Tierhüterveteran you must obtain these three specific pets on one character by completing various questlines:

Erdnuss
Willy
Kolumbus

Note that there is a 4th pet available as a possible reward, Beinchen, however this pet is not a part of this achievement.

Thus, be careful in the choices of pets, otherwise you may have to wait for next year's event to complete this achievement. Thankfully, if you do choose the "wrong pet", you will not miss out on the Ein Herz für Kinder, as this particular achievement is not required, and you will still be able to complete the entire event in one year if you are looking to complete the Was für eine lange, seltsame Reise... which rewards Zügel des violetten Protodrachen.

To start (or continue collecting the pets that you are missing) the questline for the pets for this achievement:

Horde -You can adopt an Blood Elf orphan in Shattrath by speaking with Waisenmatrone Gnädig and accepting her quest, Die Kinderwoche, if you are level 60 or above. Here is a detailed walk-though of all of the Horde Quests to receive on of the pets for the achievement.

Alliance - You can adopt an Draenei orphan in Shattrath by speaking with Waisenmatrone Gnädig and accepting her quest, Die Kinderwoche, if you are level 60 or above. Here is a detailed walk-though of all of the Alliance Quests to receive on of the pets for the achievement.

Sadly, you cannot skip the required quests for obtaining the pets and just "buy one" off the Auction House, as you will not receive credit for the "purchased" pet for this achievement.

Kommentar von OldWolf2

Only the quest chain starting in Shattrath rewards one of the pets needed for this quest.

The chains from Orgrimmar/Stormwind/Dalaran give different rewards.

NB. Since patch 6.0, to get to Shattrath from Orgrimmar there is a portal in the Cleft of Shadow which is titled "Portal to Hellfire Peninsula". Stormwind has a similar one in the mage tower.

Kommentar von Scoobydeux

There is only one breed of each of these three pets, so don't be concerned about which version of each you got. Peanut is an H/H, Willy and Egbert are B/B.

Kommentar von Grammie

I am very confused here...last year I completed the line and got egbert...the year before that I got peanut...however this year egbert disappeared from my bags...he is no longer in my collection...peanut remains but is not highlighted on the achievements bar...since I have been playing since 2004 at this point I am trying to complete my achievements but now it seems as if I can not grab the nanny for yet three more years...WTH happened? where did my egbert go? why did I not get green for peanut....waaawaaawaaa

Kommentar von squidkid11

Does anyone know if you can get the same pet twice on different characters? This is my first children's week and I love collecting pets and I think I have the alts for them all. I was wondering if I get all of the veteran nanny pets on different characters this week, come next week will I be able to redo the questline for a second one of them? Like if I get them all now just to collect, but next year I release one of them and then re-do the quest for them, is that viable? Or should I just wait to get all of them over three years?

Kommentar von NoNameDevil

If you want all the pets for the season. I noticed a way to literally get every pet within a few days or less.

Ones you have finished every quest you can take with your character (reward in total should be three pets). Change to a different character right after and do the same thing and pick a different reward than what you choose on your first character.

This won't work for the achievement since it has to be done through one character. But works well if you genially want them all to your collection.

Kommentar von Rothrix

Currently bugged, doesn't track the progression at all. Kinda worrying since it takes 3 years to complete, my progression went from 2/3 to 0/3 after the 9.1 patch release.

Update 03.11.2021: I got the achievement today "magically" as the patch 9.1.5 went live, I was supposed to have 2/3 progression and i would be able to get it at 2 May 2022 when the event hits next time. This is also weird but I'll take it over not getting the achievement I guess.

Kommentar von sarahlogic

9.1.5 changed this achievement to be account-wide acquisition, which can easily be done in one year across three characters. Previously, it took 3 years to acquire all three pets on one character.

Kommentar von RinVonKitel

Not sure when the change went through, but as of 9.2 (Shadowlands) you are able to get this achievement in one season with alts :)

I just did the questline on three different toons and voila, achievement! I had no progress on this achievement prior to today.

Kommentar von Dannymoo

Today I landed the achievement after getting Egbert one on character and Peanut on another character. They must have finally changed how you get the meta so you don't only have one chance per year to get one of the pets. Such a relief knowing I don't have to wait another year to complete this. Glad they finally updated this achievement.
