An hour after I made my last post I got the soda slush from the saloon! cx
I hit all 5 cans again, I guess that's just my lucky charm or something lol (probably more of a coincidence than anything!)
Curious to know if any more pets will be released this way or just the two pets this year. I think in some years past it worked that way?

Also hoping for a ringtail pet or item. I would definitely hoard it and so far just the caterpillars have me interested.
It's definitely not a 1 in 5 chance to get a pet, we'd all be swimming in pets if that was the case!
The odds could work in at least two ways that I can think of. Either your outcome is determined as soon as you start the game and whatever and however you hit doesn't really matter, then it's just like clicking a banner with extra steps. In this case the drop rate of pets would probably be around the same as banner pets in the past, I guestimate around 5% drop rate.
The other way is that each shot you do is randomized and you have a fairly decent hit rate, say 33%. The next one will have a 33% hit rate too etc. This way you'll have to hit the odds every time you shoot to get the 5/5 perfect shot and that'll end up in a very very low drop rate for pets too. (I'm terrible at statistics and percentages, so I can't calculate the end drop rate for a pet in this example but it's low)
That's just two possible ways the odds could work but obviously we don't know exactly how it works. But it's definitely not a 1 in 5 chance to get a pet!
Third option: It's predetermined what bottles/cans can be knocked over, and it's just a question of whether those are the ones you happened to click.
