As a priest its difficult to keep track of all the pets in the party's HP. Is there any way to make an addont that would (preferably clickable) HP bar for each pet.
TIA

Sadly not :( Only pet that can be monitored is your own pet. Somebody did get an idea of having pet classes use a macro which would then send a whisper to the party healer when their pet gets low on health, which sounded like a good idea. That's about as good as it'll get for now.

damn, i hope blizz does something to allow this. ITs not like allowing it wil make any cheating possible.
Press F2 twice to target your Second Party Member's Pet, Press it again will switch back to Pet Owner again.

Yeah what I do, I made a macro that just tells my whole party (using /p channel) the message: "Someone please heal my pet!" I have the same thing for casting buffs on my pet, and healing me and casting buffs on me. Also I use the sidebars from cosmos as macro bars, which is VERY convienent. I have all the combat ones (HELP!, RUN!, Heal, Buff, Heal Pet, Buff Pet) on the right side and then non-combat ones (Follow Me, Let's Ride!!! (mounts), Let's Fly!!! (flight paths), one asking if everyone would like aspect of the pack (though i don't have it yet ^_^" ) etc.) on the left sidebar.
Another thing I've heard is that the cosmos function that puts health and mana readouts ON the characters, works for pets.

Thought alot about doing this, but decided against it because it would just be too much work.
My idea would require the pet class, and the healing class in the group to be running the mod. When the group is created, they would both join a hidden channel, and the channel would be used to pass the information and update it in the group window. similar to how cosmos auction thingy works (only used cosmos once, cant remember what they called what im refering to).
as of now, this would be one of the only ways to do this that i have been able to think of. just too much work

A thought...
It's possible to retrieve a persons hp or must be because of Combat Call. Now the question...
Is it possible to retrieve the Pets hp via the same methods, add the correct routine to Combat Call?
Granted you would not be able to use a voice emote, but an emote could be written.
Idea valid? Invalid?

Why so many times?
Anyway,
Try hitting the 'v' key.. It will give a health bar above the pets.

Yeah, sorry about that :( I had some wierd database error and didn't realize my message had been posted.
While yes, the V key works, not everyone uses it for one reason or another. This way it's announed your pet needs to be healed.
