Appearance

Cherry Animal Crossing Appearance

Cherry is a dog villager and has a very unique look that sets her apart from other dog villagers. Her main color palette is mostly red fur although that is broken up by spots of black fur, namely a patch on her left eye and black ears. She has blue eyes, a purple nose, and appears to wear earrings in her left ear. Her clothing, the first time you see her, changes from New Leaf to New Horizons.

How to get Cherry in New Horizons

Getting a villager you want in New Horizons is particularly tricky as there is only one surefire way to do so while the rest is up to luck. There are two primary methods of getting Cherry in your village; the first is using Nook Miles to fly to an island and see if she is there. Keep in mind if you do this you’ll have to have an open plot available. The second method is to wait and see if she’ll appear at your campsite. Either way both methods are based on luck, so it’s completely up to chance.

Role of Cherry in New Leaf

With her in every Animal Crossing game Cherry, naturally, appears in New Leaf as a potential villager. Much like in previous entries, you can talk and build your friendship with her although in this game you can make her a cup of coffee.
