Let us equip multiple full sized pets!
Add ignore pets options for the pet haters!
Limit it to the max number of pets normally on a ships: Sloops get 2, Brigs get 3, Galleons 4. Y'know, so the servers and boarders don't cry. (Could even auto hide them for HG...)
Or YOLO it and let's see how many pets it takes to crash a server?
No adding abilities to the pets tho.
