Is it possible for a Rogue to obtain a pet?

You can get a creep pet (meaning, it follows you around but isn't aggressive, and can't be attacked), and there are a limited number of quest-related combat pets you can get, but that's about it.

Ok- first off, i laughed my @$$ off when i saw your name. KYHoops. Does that scream "rim-job" to anyone else? I dunno...maybe i'm retarded.

Anywho- you want a pet that attacks, get a hunter. You want a cute kitty/parrot/bug that follows you around, looks cute, but doesn't do anything to effect gameplay? Get any other character, approx 60 S, and head to a vendor (or AH).

Sorry champ.

A kitty? How cute. Although it might be useless, I think it would be rather interesting to have.

Haha, I never saw it that way but I like my name alot more now. Well, really I made it cause my initals are KY which I am very proud of because of the lubricant KY Lube/KY Jelly. And I like basketball, so I did hoops. Yes I know, lubricant and basketball don't go together...or do they? :-O

And thanks to all for the responses

Well, can't you just leave the pet somewhere, say a home or Inn, and then pick it up when you are done? Either way, I won't be doing PvP. Might put the flag up every now and then though.

Creep pets are an item in your bag just like a mount; click to summon, click again to dismiss.

Leave your pets out to give your enemies at least some chance of beating you. :P

I love my siamese kitty.

This thread reminds me of a crazy undead rogue in the mid 30s, when i was questing and I had pvp on. And this guy appears and kills me 2 times. Then I waited for the pvp to go of, and then I made friends with him.

Shortly after I noticed his name and i was "ROFL.....wt*...loool....". His name was "Bunnylover", and yes he had 10 types of bunnyes ^^, and his guild was called "Bunny Killers"....rofl

While creep pets are obviously bad for PvP, they can be useful in PvE. Keyword being 'can'. When you're stealthed and on your way to a mob or node, the pet will signal to others that you're here, and on your way to that node. Of course some people will just ignore this and take it anyway, but there are at least some who'll respect that you were there first (me, for one).

Rogues can have trinkets or items that summon offensive pets for a limited amount of time.

jewelcrafters can make such items for themselves

I normally take my pets out during instances. I have a tree frog that I've named Aggro. It's certainly not my fault that the boss in SM was aggro'd that one time. It was the frog's fault.

I have a blue moth that I have yet to name. It was given to me by a girl that I run with, so I use it often. On a similar note, she doesn't like snakes, so I leave that one in my bank.

Also, I had bad luck with my dragonhawk hathchling, so I don't use it much.

Of course I realize that none of them have any actual affect on the game, but I don't really care. They make me smile.

when did we get to name non combat pets? nvrmind

i have a prairie dog, a crimson snake, a parrot [not a vendor but a drop], a tree frog box, a siamese, a silver dragonhawk and a white moth. I may have forgotten one though.

i collect drop or "rare vendor" pets. Damn white kitten kid is empty when i find him.

i'd love to get that murloc, gorilla and hippogryph. No WoW card thing here though. [pm me if you have a code and dont want it O_O]

theres a vendor in outland that sells you pets [one is like 40g]
erm wait maybe allak has it listed

Non combat pets are awesome =D. Just don't have them out while you grind(PvP server) or while you PvP. Forgot to put my dragonhawk away once and was ganked by a priest and a hunter, who followed me everywhere after vanishing,twice.

Except for looking cute, the pets are useless.

I personally have a parrot from Deadmines (Pretty impressive for a Hordie), and a Tranquil Mechanical Yeti. I'm trying to see if I can get a chicken, which I've heard you can if you have an Alliance friend.

One of my guildies has the Murky pet, only given out in Blizzcon 05. I'm jealous.
