pet -- beast companions, bowls, and walks

Lebanon Pet Supply (west of Town Park) runs an Adoption Agency board:
each game week it rolls three dogs and three cats with random breeds, coat colors, patterns, eyes, and sex. That board does not rotate until the next game week (sold animals stay gone until then).

How you play
  1. Go to Lebanon Pet Supply (Town Park, then west)
  2. pet list          see this week's adoptions
  3. pet buy <number>  adopt one (pay the listed dollars)
  4. buy dog food / cat food, a food bowl, and a water bowl
  5. drop bowls at your claimed house; pet feed fills from bags
  6. pet home          leave them at your house
  7. pet follow        they pad with you and assist in a fight (through your porch door when you live there)
  8. pet walk          outdoors / Park / your remodeled backyard -- clears hygiene
  9. pet yard          let them stay in your fenced backyard (after remodel backyard)
 10. clean / scrub     clear a floor mess
 11. pet               status (breed / coat + need bars)
 12. pet release       turn them loose at Town Park

Breeds (examples): dogs include Heeler, Great Dane, Dachshund, Labrador, Husky, Corgi, …; cats include Domestic Shorthair, Siamese, Maine Coon, Bengal, … . Coat colors and patterns roll separately (not player chargen).

Offline / idle: your Echo will try to restock bowls and walk them when their needs climb (Cadence).

Pets can die for real. Resurrection (and the risk that something evil rides back with them) is not built yet.
