Hey, they're worth it, specially now that Foundations is out. Ice pets keep my guests' drinks cool, and my Earth pet does all the slave labor around the place.
What, you think I'd wash my own dishes when I got these guys around? Time to make 'em work! Ho-ha!
...plus, it's also fun to have an Earth pet lie down in your neighbor's yard. Kinda a medieval version of the fake dog-doo trick.
