0. New Mount and Vanity Pet Storage 07/22/2008 09:18:41 AM PDT
We’re pleased to announce a convenient upgrade to the way that mounts and vanity pets are handled in Wrath of the Lich King.
Players will be able to “learn” a mount or non-combat pet much like learning a spell, recipe, or new ability, and these creatures will then show up on a new Pet tab within the Character Info section of the interface. Players will be able to access and preview their learned mounts and vanity pets through this tab.
Once learned, the pet icon or mount icon will no longer appear in bag spaces or bank spaces. This inventory space will be made available once again for other adventuring needs. Pets can still be set to hotkeys by dragging them to the hotkey bar, much like any other spell or ability.

Awesome!
Edit:
Neth, does this change the Riding Crop change? Or will we be enchanting spells? o.O

so how will this affect the upcoming change to riding crops? will the speed enchant be treated kinda like an inscription to a spell?

What will happen to our existing pets? I have a bag full in bank, and some individual ones in bags on my character(s). Will those be parsed into the new systems and those bags be made empty? What about collector edition pets (I have both from original WoW and BC)? What about mounts that were crafted rather than purchased (engineering)? Or rep ones, like from AV (oldschool represent!)?
