Add Defensive/Attack Abilities for Pets

[Mansory]

Hey everyone, I wanted to suggest an improvement for the pet system on the server. Right now, pets are mostly just cosmetic — they follow you around, but that’s about it. It would be a lot more immersive (and realistic) if pets could actually defend their owner.

For example:

• If someone attacks you, your dog could bark, growl, or even try to bite the attacker.

• Maybe add a command like /guard so the pet stays close and protects you if danger shows up.

• It doesn’t have to be overpowered — just a small damage or distraction mechanic to make pets feel useful, not just for looks.

I think this would make owning a pet way more engaging and add to the RP side of things. People would bond with their pets more if they could actually rely on them in tough situations.

Seems like a fun addition. Love to see 20 cats and dog battle royal eachother owners in a druglab to tho going to be hilarious. By 2027 be be having drone warfare with our pets while sheltering away in the bushes
