Cat food already exists in-game, and I’ve read about people adopting/taming/whatever ravens, so perhaps Crows could be fed and made Friendly! too.
Perhaps having a Friendly! Dog/Cat/Crow around could provide a minor morale boost, perhaps with the PC being able to Chat with them. (Activating a 6-inch string on a Cat might be too much to ask. “You jiggle the string around for your Cat to attack.”)
This might also finally provide a reason to dump Mutagen on the ground, too…

You die!
Lol but seriously.
I think a crow could be attached with a camera to reveal the map in a random direction.[/quote]
Gettin’ your Odin on, hm? Not a bad idea, and would be a benefit to finding eyebots.
You know despite cat food existing in the game you can’t actually befriend cats with it at the moment IIRC. Dog food works to befriend dogs, but cat food doesn’t have a “friend cat” use at all.
imagnine befriending a dog early game hes ok and warns you of some zombies while your sleeping.
late game you dump some mutagine on the ground for him.that night he doesnt wake you.you get up to room covered in dead hulks
maybe start at nil (it’s more a tool that walks) and have it increase over time as you get more attached? and the resulting morale loss when you see them torn to shreds in front of you. would have to be able to instill some sort of training as well so they don’t go running after ever. single. freaking. rabbit. when i tame a dog i usually know he’s still around by the fields of squirrel corpses i end up wandering through - outside of NPC quests i don’t think i’ve ever found a dog whistle.
i really like the mutation idea as well. the pet dog not so much (just watched i am legend so this is all very fresh in my mind).

We all know how this ends. Ask Sigfried & Roy or Treadwell & Huguenard. Eventually, the bears would rip you to shreds and eat you. That could be the fun of it. Never knowing when it will happen, but dreading it every moment. I would suggest a cumulative 0.5%/day that the bears would attack the player, which would result in a 100% chance of attack after 200 days.
That moment when you open your eyes one morning and realize ‘CoCo The Bear’ has had enough of being called ‘CoCo’.
