Perambulating Pets!

[Spontz]

My pets are annoying me.  They won't stay where I put them!  In Qeynos this was bad enough, as my carnivorous plant kept popping inside from the back yard.  But I've recently moved to Kelethin, and now my pets are walking through walls and teleporting between floors in my acorn.It's infuriating.  Is there any way to make a pet stick to one room, or at least one floor?

i have to agree that its annoying when the house pets warp through walls and change floors on their own...

Now they've decided they all want to congregate in the same room, on the top floor, the room to the left upon entering the house.  Within two or three minutes, all my pets are up there, and they never leave!  Worst of all, it's the room I've been setting up as a meditation area.  I don't want it full of monkey poo, leftover sprockets, and whatever the heck beholders leave behind them.What's the point of pets that will only sit in one room -- especially the room where you least want to see them?  Would it really be that difficult to "leash" pets to a smaller radius of roving from the points at which they've been placed?

Something must be attracting them there <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> lol but since the pets move on their own...you really have no control over them...i sometimes get mad at my pets because they are always "dead" due to my clockwork lol

Yeah, my clockwork is rather fond of attacking my monkey but leaves the carnivorous plant alone... Go figure. They all congregate in my guest room in my 6-room acorn house. They will also wander in the kitchen/dining room directly underneath it and occasionally the living room next door. They never go up into the master bedroom, which is just above the living room, and they never go into the two basement rooms that I turned into a pub and fighting-style dojo. They seem to prefer the guest room. <shrugs> I wound up writing that into my characters RP that her room was so full of chaotic swirling energies when my druid slept that the animals were afraid for their lives if they entered. I still need to come up with a decent reason for why they won't go into the basement room though.

I'm turning that one upstairs room into a menagerie.  I just wish they'd chosen the other upstairs room, it's less pleasantly circular.  I'm seriously considering getting rid of all my pets, though.  I like the pets, but the annoyance factor is too great.Could you at least sell us some leashes, Sony?  Or give us an option to limit roaming?
