Animated stream pets that react while you stream

StreamRio gives Twitch and TikTok LIVE creators an animated stream pet: a cute on-screen sidekick that can idle in your scene, react to chat and viewer events, and turn gifts, Bits, follows, raids, and redeems into visible character moments.

Direct answer

What is a stream pet?

A stream pet is an animated character overlay that sits inside your live stream scene. Unlike a one-time alert, it can stay visible between events and react when viewers chat, redeem channel points, send Bits, follow, raid, like, share, join, or send TikTok LIVE gifts.

A pet that reacts to stream events

Map follows, raids, subscriptions, Bits, TikTok gifts, likes, shares, chat, viewer joins, and other moments to different pet reactions.

Made for OBS and browser sources

Add StreamRio as a transparent browser-source URL in OBS, Streamlabs, TikTok LIVE Studio, Prism Live Studio, XSplit, or similar tools.

More personality than a basic alert

Keep the pet on-screen as a sidekick, then use bigger reactions only when a viewer moment deserves attention.

Setup flow

From viewer event to mascot reaction

StreamRio is built around browser-source overlays, so the same setup works in OBS, Streamlabs, TikTok Live Studio, and other tools that can load a web source.

Step 1

Choose a pet or mascot

Start with a cat, fox, owl, wolf, anime-style character, robot, or fantasy mascot from the StreamRio character library.

Step 2

Pick reactions for each platform

Use smaller reactions for chat, follows, likes, and joins; use larger reactions for Bits, raids, subs, gifts, and channel point style moments.

Step 3

Add the pet to your scene

Paste the private StreamRio overlay URL into your streaming software as a Browser Source or Link source.

Step 4

Test before going live

Preview reactions in the dashboard so the stream pet does not cover your camera, gameplay, chat, or alert text.

Questions streamers ask

Can a Twitch pet react to chat and redeems?

Yes. StreamRio is designed around event-triggered character reactions, so Twitch creators can use it for chat moments, Bits, follows, raids, subscriptions, and channel point style reactions.

Can a TikTok LIVE stream pet react to gifts?

Yes. StreamRio can map TikTok LIVE gifts and other viewer events to animated pet reactions for a gift reaction overlay.

Is StreamRio the same as Bongo Cat?

No. Bongo Cat-style input overlays usually visualize keyboard, mouse, or controller input. StreamRio focuses on animated pets that react to audience events such as gifts, Bits, follows, raids, and chat.
