Presented for discussion and possible inclusion in Slash'EM.
I believe it is too easy to get a pet in the black market. The player can
simply wait for a domestic-type monster to be generated, or just zap a
wand of create horde a few times. Then tame the animal as usual.
This works around that, making it an actual effort to get a pet. (I can
think of three or four ways, and there are probably more.)
