Critters and Compassion quest walkthrough in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Tramp has officially joined the village, but Lady is still back in the Realm in Disney Dreamlight Valley. To get her to join, you’ll need to help her with some unfinished business in the Critters and Compassion quest.

There’s already a home waiting for Lady in the valley, and Tramp is quite worried about her, so getting her out of the Realm as soon as possible is essential. Here’s a complete walkthrough for the Critters and Compassion quest in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

How to complete Critters and Compassion in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Talk to Lady

First up, you need to figure out why Lady stayed behind while Tramp was unlocked as a villager. You can find her in the fenced-off area behind Tony’s, in between the crafting station and the dinner table. Chat with Lady to see what’s going on. She wants to go back to the pound and rescue all of the trapped animals inside.

Re-order the jumbled memory

Lady is feeling hopeless about the situation, so you’re seeking a way to cheer her up. A fragmented memory appears, but it’s all jumbled and out of order. Luckily, the pieces can be put together to fix it.

A new re-ordering of memories gameplay mechanic is introduced in this step of the quest. If you’re familiar with re-ordering stories through The Storybook Vale DLC, you have a solid idea of what needs to be done here.

Approach the golden glowing orb a few feet away from Lady and interact with it to start the process. Click each piece and rotate it around until you figure out where it should go in the puzzle. If you’re having trouble with it, check the image below to see where each piece fits.

Once you’re done piecing together the fond memory, chat with Lady about it. She’s feeling a lot more optimistic now, so head back into the dog pound with her so you can get to work freeing the animals. Talk to her again in front of the kennel, where the animals are locked inside, to figure out a plan.

There’s no key anywhere nearby to unlock the kennel, so you’ll have to make one. Start by taking a picture of the lock so you can work with Lady to figure out what’ll work to get you through. Talk to Lady after you’re done, then exit the dog pound to search around, and chat with her once more.

Find and collect five Giant Cheeses

Cheese is the perfect consistency for the key you want to craft, so you now need to search around the Realm to find five Giant Cheeses. All five cheeses can be found sitting on the ground around the area.

• The Massive Mozzarella can be found in the fenced-off area behind Tony’s, in a corner behind some crates to the left of the crafting station.
• The Gorgeous Gorgonzola can be found in the alley near the Realm entrance. It’s on the ground right in front of the crafting station located there.
• The Perfect Parmesan can be found on the left side of Tony’s, close to the white gate that leads into the fenced area behind the restaurant.
• The Fabulous Fontina can be found near the building that has a lit-up window with the word “Grill” on it. This is also very close to where you freed Tramp during the Meatballs quest.
• The Astounding Asiago can be found in the same alley where the Gorgeous Gorgonzola is located, which is close to the Realm entrance. This cheese is behind the crates to the right of the crafting station.

Cook Magical Melted Cheese

Once you’ve found all five cheeses, head to the oven in the fenced-off area behind Tony’s, close to the dinner table. Interact with it to toss in the five cheeses and cook some Magical Melted Cheese. Then, talk with Lady nearby to see if she found anything useful to go with it.

Craft the Cheese Key

Interact with one of the crafting stations and switch over to the Functional Items page to locate the Cheese Key recipe. Craft this item and head back into the dog pound with Lady. Chat with Lady, then interact with the locked gate in front of the trapped animals to slot the key into the hole and free them. Head inside the kennel, then chat with Lady to discuss what comes next.

Investigate the dog bed at the back of the kennel

The animals are free, but you decide to look around before leaving. As you do, a strange cloud appears on a dog bed at the back of the kennel. Approach and interact with the dog bed to reveal a message that seems to be tied to the dog collar you recovered in a previous mission with Lady and Tramp. Chat with Lady about what you found, then exit the dog pound with her.

Use your Pickaxe to break through to the Realm exit

While you were inside, the spaghetti storm got a whole lot worse and is now blocking your way to the exit. Equip the Substitute Snout you made during The Jailbreak mission, then grab your Royal Pickaxe to start slashing your way through the pasta mayhem. Follow the scent clouds to find the exit and chat with Lady once you both reach it.

As soon as you exit the Realm, Lady will officially join the village. Talk to her once she’s there, and Tramp will arrive to reunite with both of you and catch up on what’s going on. As soon as the conversation is complete, the Critters and Compassion mission is finished. Things may seem settled for a bit, but their arrival has also brought some fresh chaos to the valley, which you’ll learn upon opening Merlin’s letter in your mailbox and starting The Spaghetti Incident quest.

Ready to toe the line between good and evil? Warlocks are invading Diablo for its 30th anniversary, beginning today, and leading to BlizzCon later this year.

As part of today’s 30th anniversary spotlight, Blizzard revealed that Diablo 2: Reign of the Warlock is a new expansion for Diablo 2: Resurrected, and it’s available right now. But it doesn’t end there, because the Warlock class is also coming to Diablo Immortal later this year. And of course, it will be the second new class in Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred in April, joining the already-available Paladin.

The update for the Diablo 2 remaster is packed with quality of life updates, as is Immortal’s (coming in June), but Diablo 4’s big upcoming expansion is where the bulk of the eyes are. And Blizzard says the new DLC has been built on what it’s learned over the past few years since D4 launched, including the new class.

Diablo 4’s Warlock is “fully unleashed,” with powers of metal chains and flames, and Blizzard called it “a heavy metal album come to life” during the stream. The dev team will deep dive on the new class on March 5, detailing its abilities, powers, and gear.

Lord of Hatred’s new zone, Skovos (the birthplace of humanity), was revealed during the stream, and it’s heavily inspired by Mediterranean landscapes, featuring “more monster variety than ever,” and a big change from the last DLC’s swampy region.

Blizzard also said Lord of Hatred’s system updates will change the game, including a “completely overhauled, massively expanded” skill tree, offering more customization from the beginning. They said that “meaningful choices,” including customization options are coming, and they’re coming to all classes regardless of whether players own the DLC or not.

Other changes coming to Lord of Hatred are loot filters, a new Talisman system, and more to be revealed. Needless to say, it sounds like the Diablo team is cooking up some fun stuff for the franchise’s big birthday this year.

You can check out the full showcase on YouTube above, including all of the details about Reign of the Warlock, Diablo 2: Resurrected’s new DLC.
