All pets in the Weyr are going to have to earn their keep.
Dogs can either be put to work herding or learn to be spit dogs. Firelizards are natural messengers (though they're not currently allowed in this timeline). Felines can catch tunnel snakes.
I have one question to pose though... if we (the Weyr) brought you on Search, how did you get your runner to the stables? Would the Search rider be nice enough to put up with a scared feline trying to scratch his eyes out or a scared puppy wetting on him? Also, what happens to your possessive doggy or kitty when you Impress? What is yourr dragon going to think about that? Will you really have time for said pet?
This are things to consider when making a Candidate.
Giving up your pets and leaving home is all part of becoming a Candidate. You give up just about everything. You put yer career on hold, say bye to family and friends, etc. Most of you wouldn't have been farther than 30 miles from your home hold before. It's a very uncertain and emotional time for a new Candidate.
P.S.
Adult riders, you have my permission to let your dragons eat someone's dog or cat... or even runner, if you'd like. They have two days to respond trying to rescue the animal. If they don't...by all means, have a draggie snack.
If you have a pet, be sure to play that pet in your posts. They aren't just there for 'bio candy'. If so... they will be treated as such. Reread above statement.
