idk if this is the right thread...I posted here once before but now i can't find it.
- Making items fit a lot of different pet linearts is a lot of work, because it means that for every lineart, the item has to be redrawn completely - so just making one item fit ten different species would mean that this item has to be drawn ten times, maybe even more if we include variations like floppy ears or bobtails on dogs, for example.
There aren't a whole lot of items that fit lions, and since these particular lions are massively edited from the standard lineart, even those items don't tend to fit them.
It would be a lot of work with little payoff to adjust items to fit one-off lineart edits like these which are highly unlikely to ever be used again. You'd be redrawing an item to fit only 4 specific lions, which is more work than it's considered to be worth.
Store pets and other special pets do tend to have this problem in general - it's the cost that comes with having such extraordinary edits^^

- The option to delete pets is mostly a remnant from times when we didn't actually have adoption limits.
Back in the early days of CS we could adopt as many of a pet as we wished, so sometimes people would rather delete them than to try to give them away or just having them sit around.
Tess isn't so sure if it's still a good option to have, either :'D

- Store pets sometimes start out as rare if they have been bought often enough. Some of the store pets were just so hugely popular and well-liked that a lot of people decided to buy them, and a lot of people bought extra sets to trade away since they anticipated that the litter may be sought after in the future.
The griffon lions are just one more case like that.
It has happened several times before already - for example with the dragon cats from 2014 (minus the PPS), the PPS cheetah from 2016, or the raven dog from 2010.
Store pets aren't guaranteed to start off as very rare, and the more popular they are, the less rare they tend to be, because there are no restrictions on how many of them can be bought.^^
