Once you're done “Caring for animals' daily life guide segment as you progress through the main story Heartopiayou will be able to find and feed several types of animals scattered around the map. There are eight different interaction options, but you'll have to locate each of their troughs (things they eat) to increase their bond level and unlock new interactions and upgrades.
With this Heartopia animal trough guide, we'll show you the exact locations so you don't have to spend hours running or cycling around the island looking for them yourself. Here it is!
Before we get into that, it's worth noting that animal troughs won't appear until you've completed the Animal Care quest in the town guide.
