How do I get Pet Hotbar to show up?

I have the option checked to always see pet hotbar. I have a pet. Nothing there. :/

On PS3 you need to press R1 I think, not sure about PC though.

If it's PS3 the "quickly tap" R1 to bring up pet hotbar. A normal press will not bring it up. Also make sure pet hotbar is enabled in settings.

I am on PC. Hotbar is enabled.

I've got the opposite question, how do you turn it off on PC? I ticked it off..

Actually it seems like the only place you can tick/untick the pet hotbar option is under the Cross Hotbar settings, which i don't even use. :/ Weird.

I figured out my problem. Apparently your chocobo is not a pet. ^^ Oops. :)

It's not a pet but it will become a companion so it can fight / heal and so on together with you similarly to pets.

@ Level 30.
You get a quest where the Chocobo will fight with ya.
Have fun!

Just to be clear, minions aren't pets either. The pets refer directly to the pet class/jobs. Carbuncle is a pet for ACN's.

So I missed a few updates, can someone tell me why the pet hotbar is no longer toggled with R1 on console and instead now a UI interface element? This is pretty annoying, is there any way I can get it back to the way it used to be? Thanks!

You can change the Pet hotbar setting in Character configuration screen - it's of now by default.
