Not even cute. Also, can't they add new models to the game without putting them on the shop? Every time something like this is put up it makes the game look like a free to play game with lots of microtransactions.

Ah maybe that's why the Shop mount/pet glitch has come back, where they vanish from your panes.

This is such a cute pet! I just wish they'd found a better charity than Red Cross to donate to. They'll waste the money like they do every other disaster; take 3 billion, build 2 homes, then leave.

To the red cross? Guess I will pass on this one, and rather donate my $10 to someone who will actually allocate it to the hurricane relief.

That looks like a sonic character. And god knows we don't need more of those.
The pet is not meant to be cute or crude; it's meant to provide some nice funds to social welfare works
I dunno why people sometimes act like a tool

Wow, it's... hideous.
But well, I wouldn't be able to afford that much on a pet even if it were a reptile. And at least it's Blizzard being well-meaning.

Its not like it makes you stronger than everyone else who doesn't pay anything. Its all cosmetic stuff, so chill out. You seem like its uncommon to have stuff that are just cosmetic, and just make you look cooler. It doesn't make you stronger in any way.

Why the Red Cross? They are one of the worst charities to donate to, as most corporate charities are. They're like FEMA lite. They have been about useless in Texas because they bring nothing but red tape and other ridiculous barriers when it comes to aid and even tried denying Texans from helping Texans. Much of the aid went to keeping the Red Cross folks in 5 star hotels, when much more reasonable accommodations were available. They denied hungry people food because it wasn't "meal time", when they had plenty of food and, when you are starving, "mealtime" means diddly squat. They even tried stopping a Texas woman that flew out 400 freshly made hamburgers from handing them out to people in the shelter because the burgers hadn't been processed, it wasn't "mealtime", and the Red Cross wanted to freeze the hot and freshly made burgers to hand them out later. Thankfully they were told to buzz off and the locals passed them out anyhow. Much more of a hindrance than help. Maybe Red Cross does ok internationally, but, domestically, local charities and churches are a much better option for disaster relief, as Americans can take care of themselves, rather than take orders from the man made disaster that is the Red Cross.
Texas doesn't need Red Cross. We have other Texans and HEB.

Red Cross? No thanks. Wish Blizz and many other companies would take the time to pick more credible charities and realize the Red Cross is the real disaster when it comes to managing our donations.

Hope all purchase for this pet goes as a hurricane relief donation for a month or two. Often time the promotional period for donation seem short from what I seen.
according to the blue post 100% will be donated untill the end of the year

Wish it was NOT for Red Cross ....
I have read enough about their shenanigans for a while now and would rather donate to some other organization. I like the pet and will wait for donation period to end because I don't want to give a single penny to Red Cross.

Why can't we get hunter pets that look this good, rather than some of the garbage they feed us?
I don't know.....the new panthara are pretty awesome looking.
This little guy is too cute. And for a good cause? Insta-buy!

Before you buy the pet take a loot at this. Assuming you're buying it for the red cross, and the other one.

i believe the red cross was a poor choice in light of their recent shady behavior. i can only hope they stop !@#$ing around and actually help people and not drive around with empty trucks LOOKING like they're helping.*

Big and disproportionate head like one of the trashier pokemon from the latest games? Giant, oversized feet? Big, "Call Me Cute" eyes? Definitely the worst store pet by a mile, this one's ugly as all hell. Still getting it because it's a pet and because it helps a good cause, but this ugly thing ain't seeing the
light
of day at my side in the game. I wish we got something related to the latest patch, like a cutesy ray or something.

Too bad it's SO cute but I won't buy it. Blizz blew it by selecting red cross as the organization, run by bad people; only eight cents on the dollar goes to relief aid. Read the warcraft facebook comments for more info and see how pissed people are that have been scr#wed by red cross. If and when they move it from being a charity pet then I will gladly give my money to blizz.
