Strays

The term "stray" refers to any pet obtained through the Xanje Stray Pet Game. So long as a user has strays enabled, whilst they are browsing the site pets may be randomly encountered, in which case they may then adopt the pet as their own. The species is chosen, at any given time, from the selection in the contemporary pool or stray rotation; probability also figures in the selection, as many species are far rarer than others.

Due to the nature of these stray rotations, certain strays may remain for dissastisfactorily long periods, resulting in negative reactions from members of the Xanje community. When a stray species receives this treatment, it is usually customary to assign alternate names, ranging from such derogatory monikers as "fucking melon" to the more benign "cabbage".

Notable controversial strays:
