This guide will be a quick run down of 50 pets that are attainable to get you the achievement and Stinker the Skunk. If you've never collected pets before and are starting from scratch, no problem! If you've never sprung for a collector's edition so you have no special pets, no problem! If you've never picked up a Holiday pet, there are still 50 pets you can get!!!
Now, if you're going for the 75 pet achievement, that's a different story... but I'll get into that later!
I've organized my list into how the pets are attained, so if you prefer purchasing pets rather than farming them, or if you don't mind waiting for World Events to avoid farming and spending your gold, then you can easily pick out which pets you are going to get, and how! If you don't mind farming, have the required rep with all the factions, and don't mind putting up the gold, getting Stinker really doesn't take long!
*for pets that are only available to either Alliance or Horde, don't forget that you can most likely get them in the neutral auction house!!!
Sorry that some words are cut off, but blog just isn't wide enough to hold all this info!!! lol

You'll Notice that I have included the 75 Pets you can acquire to get the Lil Game Hunter Achievement and the Baby Fawn Pet. This will take a long time of course, because you can only get two of the Children's Week pets a year, and some pets are not available until the appropriate World Event. Other than the wait however, getting 75 vanity pets is actually possible!!! (at first I didn't believe it was)
GOOD LUCK! And feel free to leave a comment if you have any questions or e-mail me at lilgamergirl@gmail.com
** As an after note, I forgot to add a few pets to my list!!! There are 4 different crock pets you can get from the fishing daily. They are just random from the bag of fishing treasures, but I hear you can only get them from the quest that sends you to fish a crock out of the Stormwind Canals. I'm not sure about this though, so I just do all the fishing dailies I can.
The second is a Kirin Tor Familiar. This is a difficult pet to get, and I am still working away on it! Once I get it however, I will post a seperate detailed blog about how to get it! =)
