Non-combat pets are those which you may obtain throughout your adventures, and while they have little to no purpose outside of being around you, they're nice to collect or show off to your friends or guildies within instances or parties. Places to obtain these pets vary from Questlines, to extremely low droprates from monsters, to special events.

Small pets will never attack nor be hurt by anything, unless they step on lava or other such environments, in which case you will need to resummon them again in order to have them around you once more.
