A few questions (you have probably thought of them already, but just in case 
:
-Will these non-combat pets require control slots like the combat pets?
-If not, how will people be prevented from having a herd of 20 cats following them around?
- There will obviously need to be some limit, no idea what. ~Lara
-Will they be able to use the 'icon' version for "storage" in addition to stabling, is it a one-time deal for the purposes of selling, or is it a function of herding?
- Just for the purposes of selling, otherwise the stable should be used. I may rethink this. ~Lara
-What is the purpose of higher hit points for this type of pet, if they avoid combat?
- No idea, was just tossing comments out. ~Lara
