Pets get rarer as time passes.
Say you get a pet in January and its rarity is common. In February no more of that pet can be adopted. In addition, 100,000 new users join the site. This means 100,000 people that don't have the January pet. Same thing in March, the population adds another 100,000 to the site. That's 200,000 people that hypothetically don't have the January pet. In March, the pet's rarity is considered uncommon.
Come buy old rare pets in bulk for gems!
