I just mean like, I don't understand why a pet/dogz/catz that belong to me adopted or bred by me can't be deleted? Like, I just find it to be a silly rule, because you gave it away, people should be able to do as they please.

I've done breeding too, like I said, I just find it silly, but that's probably cause I wouldn't really care what happened to the file.

^ I have to disagree with that and I'm actually kind of glad that I know some people might think like that, because that truly does affect me adopting out to them...to be perfectly honest.
Why would deleting a bred pet be alright and deleting a hexed pet not (or you feel the same about hexed petz as well?) people (usually) do put a lot of time and effort into the petz they hex or breed and put up for adoption so that other people may enjoy them.
The time it would take you to find the .pet file in your folders and delete it, is about the same as sending the file back to the e-mail from which it came. Most hexers/ breeders don't even need a reason for why the pet was returned either, so no hard feelings.
If everyone thought the same about .pet files, there wouldn't be much of an involved and sharing community left=/.
So, yeah...I guess people thinking like that is one of my pet peeves.

See, this is why I didn't want to say anything, because it would spark a nasty debate. I just said, in my opinion, it's silly to have that rule when people will do what they want regardless. The pet belongs to them at that point. I follow the rules nonetheless, I just said I find it sillly, in the sense that, I wouldn't require people to do that.
But now that opinion is apparently making me peoples pet peeves so...yeah.
I'm done, I said it, sorry people are upset that I would enforce that rule and I find it silly even though I follow it.

You didn't spark a nasty debate of any kind, the whole point is to talk about difference of opinions in what bothers people.
I can see both sides of it. Sure, the file is yours now, but when people ask for you to do something if you don't want it anymore, it's best to do it. Even if they didn't ask, it's still good manners to find out if they want it back before deleting it. Besides, you might find someone else would love that file.
Some people may go ahead and delete the file, but not all do, or there wouldn't be any MPA/Find the previous owner threads..ever.

Of course it had to be my favorite cat that would decide he just did not want to pose! Fitz's "Little Trouble Maker" name was inspired purely by that alone. >_> I tried for HOURS to get him to pose, and all he cared about was sleeping. But I look away for one second and *then* he decides to pose, and I miss it.
I got really lucky today when I had him out in my game, and forgot about it for an hour, and when I checked back, he struck a pose. Soooo not looking forward to showing him again in the future.

What really bothers me is when I'm trying to breed petz naturally and they just won't have babies. Like, they'll be flirting and such, but they won't have babies for like 2 hours.

I've never been big on showing or hexing so breeding is the main source of peeves for me. I chose people who adopt everything they see. I've been guilty of having many Petz before but I generally have a core group of favourites and so when I want to add to them I'll be a bit picky before selecting someone I want to add to my crew.
That's why it's so frustrating when someone posts a litter and then some asks for all of the petz and gets them before anyone else has had a chance to get a look in.
I also find it annoying when you're doing a breeding programme and you can't get petz to mate. I like to make things feel a bit more realistic so even though I have Petz 5 I like to copy the mums three or four times to give me litters that are more like the real ones. There's nothing worse than having a couple who clearly like each other and have already bred twice (well, in the form of two copies) but then the third one just won't do it. So annoying!

when your pet suddenly hates a serten food that they used to like like i had this Labrador who when she was a puppy used to like cheese and then when she was almost an adult she started hating cheese even if she's super hungry she just frowns at the cheese she even preferred eating healthy treats over cheese!

Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever had one of my petz actually enjoy cheese, at least that I can remember... Although I don't bring it out very often, either.

Honestly, one of the worst things for me is not having a real life friend to talk to about this game! I'm always so excited to play it or breed petz or work on my site (maybe a little tooooo excited sometimes >_>) but if I were to ever bring it up, I'm not sure any of them would listen. :/ The white screen was always strange to me, but you can escape it by pressing.... the escape key? You don't have to close the game or anything. I'm sure people knew about that, right? Okay, also, why don't any of my petz drink water??

They do drink water , but there's a catch to it. Thirst equals hunger, so even though the water bowl will never satisfy their hunger (it does nothing to be exact lol), they'll keep trying to drink/drinking if you offer them the bowl when they're hungry. I tested that a while back, it was something i couldn't understand either, until i decided to mess around, made my pet hungry, gave it a water bowl and bam. Drinking water hah.

lol I did that once. I opened the brain sliders after I put some food and water down and the pet drank the water, but the slider didn't go up even though it drank all the water. I don't understand why they decided to include water if it does about nothing for your petz despite being key to survival for all forms of life in reality,
I voted when people adopt everything they see, so now petz not posing and that own are even ahaha. I don't even hold adoptions and it irritates me. Though, on SS once I had an adoption of four horses off a mod I'd made and I didn't put a limit on the number of horses you could apply for, so i just said 'apply for as many as you'd like' and someone applied for all four horses and I was kind of pissed, but I didn't want to say anything to upset or offend them. I thought maybe they were torn between two of them or something, I didn't know they thought it was supposed to be a pony shopping spree where you fart out 'why wouldn't I want this sexy beast?' apps left and right. I don't think they ever got one horse from that adoption anyway, so I guess it doesn't really matter, but jeez, can you leave something for the other people that might want to adopt?
Never making that mistake again. :/

As long as I've been playing these games I've only seen two chinchilla persians drink water, but none of the other petz I've ever had did. I guess I'll try again sometime and wait until they're really, really hungry.... (ahem, or use PetzA, whichever) x) we'll see!
I feel like, if people tried to adopt every pet I put up, I would be pretty irked - but also, just the tiniest bit flattered? Like geez, I'm glad you like my petz so much. I don't think anyone means to be harmful when they do things like that, even if it does get really annoying. Not that I'm defending it, ahaha.
