Four year anniversary pet and feat of strength achievement

by Adam Holisky Nov 22nd 2008 at 9:00AM

Those of us waking up today and tomorrow will log into Azeroth and find in our mailboxes a little Baby Blizzard Bear non-combat pet. This pet will also give you a feat of strength achievement celebrating World of Warcraft's four years online.

This is a nice little way for Blizzard to thank all of us for spending years in the game. With over 11 million people playing WoW, and Wrath becoming a hit overnight, there's definitely a lot of celebrating to do over at Blizzard HQ.

The little bear that you get looks a like a small version of the BlizzCon Polar Bear Mount those of us lucky enough to attend BlizzCon this year got. It's a perfect traveling companion for you as you adventure around Northrend.

Edit: The pet is active on US, EU, and Oceanic servers.

Thanks to Mangowire for sending us the pics you see below.

My guess... this is what caused the mail issue with the scheduled downtime right before WotLK when everyones mail was flubbered up.

So is this thing gonna appear on US servers anytime soon? 7:45PM PST right now and no pet or achievement yet...

My Horde characters (Oceanic Realm) got this last night. But I log into my Alliance characters this morning (US Realm) and nothing. :( No ingame mail or achievement.

Is it over already? Not that I mind, all my important characters got one, still space goats need cute bears too.
