You do have a point with that claw/growl comment. (I would never-ever recommend not keeping growl maxed, btw, it costs nothing talent points-wise). I forget how hard it is for little toby the turtle to keep a big baddie's attention with bite level 1 at 70. Some pets are pretty good on the aggro scale though, gorillas hold aggro magnificently as long as you max that thunderstomp, I think you can do without the extra bite and you can always intimidate it back on if you do get overzealous, for the cat pet I see no good reason not to throw those extra claws in there because their dps is oh-so-nice anyways and you always like making the little kitties as vicious as possible. While I do agree with any poster who tells you that no pet is absolutely Uber above all else, I'd have to say they weren't exactly all created equal either.
