Pets need an overhaul because they trickle in so slowly, even if you’re spending money the concept of using them for kingdom power feels like an unreachable goal. I’ve caved and spent gems/money on pets before, but now the goal feels so distant I don’t see the point.
Let the whales spend on deeds and badges/medals. Pets have had their time as the carrot.
