i'm not sure how many times this has been said already, cause i cba to read all the replies. but there's generally no moment where every player is at full health and you have "spare" time to heal a pet, cause the only reason a pet would be low is aoe dmg, wich they don't rly take alot of anyway, and when the raid takes aoe dmg, the players will be aoe healed, and it will most likely hit the pets aswell, wich means they will be at full health even before the players, because of the decreased aoe dmg they take. and if a pet dies cause they take aggro (unless it's assigned to tank something) it's noone else than the owner's fault, you can't even blame the tank, cause no pet does so much dmg that they would aggro before one of the dps would... in other words, growl is on... i play all sorts of classes, and when i tank and see any of the mobs get growled i just ignore that mob. if i heal i never have pets on my bars, cause i don't care about what happens to them, not my job. and if i dps (mage or hunter) i make sure my pet don't die. easy as that. if you heal a pet when you are healing raid, you are wasting mana. if your pet dies, you suck, go play tetris
