Ride A Pet Mythic Pets Guide - Lion, Ostrich, Fox, Giraffe & Cheetah
Complete guide to all Mythic pets in Ride A Pet. Compare Lion, Ostrich, Fox, Giraffe, and Cheetah stats, hatch odds, and mutation priorities.
What Are Mythic Pets in Ride A Pet?
Mythic pets are the tier where Ride A Pet shifts from “grinding” to “committing.” With hatch odds from 1 in 1.2M to 1 in 7B, these pets require serious time investment — and two of them gate critical Rebirth stages.
| Pet | Hatch Odds | Speed | Jump | Income | Rebirth Gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lion | 1 in 1.2M | 6,500 | 95 | 450 $/s | — |
| Ostrich | 1 in 1.5M | 6,960 | 86 | 480 $/s | — |
| Fox | 1 in 21M | 19,500 | 105 | 1,200 $/s | Rebirth 2 |
| Giraffe | 1 in 300M | 27,400 | 83 | 1,600 $/s | — |
| Cheetah | 1 in 7B | 38,400 | 92 | 2,200 $/s | — |

Lion & Ostrich: The Entry Mythics
The Lion (1 in 1.2M) and Ostrich (1 in 1.5M) are statistically similar entry-level Mythics. Both offer modest upgrades over Legendary pets.
| Stat | Lion | Ostrich | Winner |
|---|---|---|---|
| Speed | 6,500 | 6,960 | Ostrich |
| Jump | 95 | 86 | Lion |
| Income | 450 $/s | 480 $/s | Ostrich |
Verdict: Keep whichever you hatch first. Don’t grind for both — the real prize is Fox.
Fox: The Rebirth 2 Gate
The Fox is the second most important pet in Ride A Pet’s progression system. Rebirth 2 requires a Fox in your inventory.
| Rebirth 2 Requirements | Details |
|---|---|
| Pet Needed | Fox (1 in 21M) |
| Cash Needed | $50,000,000 |
| Reward | +1x Money Multiplier (total +2x), +1 Pet Slot (total +2) |
The jump from Ostrich (6,960 speed) to Fox (19,500 speed) is nearly 3x — the largest single-tier speed increase in the game. This makes the Fox grind feel transformative when it finally pays off.

Giraffe: The Speed Step
The Giraffe (1 in 300M) improves on Fox with 27,400 speed and 1,600 $/s income. However, its 83 jump is a noticeable downgrade from Fox’s 105.
Strategy: Use Giraffe for flat terrain and racing, switch back to Fox for cliff-heavy egg routes. Don’t mutate Giraffe — its low jump cap limits long-term value.
Cheetah: The Mythic King
The Cheetah (1 in 7B) is the fastest Mythic pet and the realistic F2P ceiling for most players. Its 38,400 speed is the highest you’ll reasonably achieve without moving to Divine or Ethereal tiers.
| Stat | Cheetah | vs Fox | vs Giraffe |
|---|---|---|---|
| Speed | 38,400 | +97% | +40% |
| Jump | 92 | -12% | +11% |
| Income | 2,200 $/s | +83% | +38% |
Why Cheetah Matters: For free-to-play players, the Cheetah represents the end of realistic progression. Everything beyond this point (Unicorn at 1T, Phoenix at 30T, Kitsune at 1Qi) requires either extreme luck or paid advantages.

Mythic Pet Mutation Strategy
| Pet | Mutate? | Priority | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lion | No | — | Replaced too quickly |
| Ostrich | No | — | Transitional |
| Fox | Yes | High | Rebirth 2 gate, 19.5K base scales well |
| Giraffe | No | — | Low jump limits value |
| Cheetah | Yes | High | F2P endgame mount, worth maxing |
Mythic Pet FAQ
Which Mythic pet is the best?
For Rebirth progression: Fox (required for Rebirth 2). For raw stats: Cheetah (38,400 speed, 2,200 $/s).
How long does it take to hatch a Fox?
At 1 in 21M odds with optimized farming, expect weeks of dedicated play or coordinated trading. This is the first true “commitment” pet in the game.
Is the Cheetah worth the grind?
Yes, if you’re F2P. The Cheetah is the fastest pet you can realistically obtain without spending Robux or getting extremely lucky. Many players consider it the true “final mount” for free players.
What comes after Mythic?
The Divine tier (Unicorn) and Ethereal tier (Phoenix, Cerberus, Kitsune, Dragon). These are exponentially rarer and typically require paid advantages or extreme luck.
