How can I heal my battle pet?

I have been playing around with the pokemon battle pet system added to World of Warcraft in the Mists of Pandaria expansion, and have noticed that between fights my chosen pet does not regenerate her health.

What methods are available to restore the health of my battle pet so I can continue my winning streak against the critters of Azeroth?


There are multiple ways to heal your battle pet(s), some of them heal specifically the active pet, others heal all pets. Here are the different ways you can heal:

Winning a battle

Winning a battle will provide a small heal and some experience to your currently active battle pet. The amount healed is 50% of the damage that they took during the fight.

Levelling a battle pet

Gaining a level with a battle pet will restore its health to 100%.

Visit a stable master

For a small fee (from my testing this appears to be 10 silver and doesn't appear to increase the more times you do it) you can ask a Stable Master to revive and heal all of your battle pets.

The battle pet interface

You can also use the 'Revive Pets' option in the Battle Pet interface:

Battle Pet Interface

This ability has an eight minute cooldown, and fully revives and heals your battle pets.

Battle Pet Bandages

It is also possible to get battle pet bandages, which are bandages for your battle pets. These will heal and resurrect your battle pets to full health.

Battle Pets are account-bound, so if you leave one of your characters standing next to a a stable master, you can always log in with that character to heal your pets, and then log back in with the one you are running around battling with.
