Quite simple...what kind of pet do you have, what is it's name, why did you choose this pet?
My lowly little Orc huntress that I refuse to level past 24 (kiting warriors, rogues and paladins around Redridge Mountains is too much fun) went to Dun Morogh to tame that white bear, I named it Snowfur. I wanted to go on a big adventure at level 12, and so, I decided that going to the land of the Dwarves to tame a polar bear would be a worthy quest for a little inexperienced Orc. I also just dislike cats and boars as pets, because about 90% of the hunter population seems to have one of those.
I also have a red haired Dwarf hunter who has a red crab as pet, just because it's fun to have my crab chase down mighty Taurens, and he is the same color as my Dwarf's hair. My crab's name is Pinchy.
