Yeah, yeah, first world problems. But I am actually pretty furious about this!
Screenshot, please!
I believe the pet is available if you purchase a copy of the game from amazon.co.jp
Here's the picture that's used in the description:

The obvious answer? "They don't care".
As with almost any business these days- they've got your money already. The days of "customer loyalty" are long gone- it's all about making a quick buck, offshore accounts and quick retirement. Ever since the dotcoms and getting rich overnight with the stock market, almost every business has turned into a cash-grab model.
Pre-orders, hyped announcements, borderline false advertisement, etc.

Don't worrry. It'll be in the Crown Store at some point.

I might actually do that if the code for the cat were separate and I could add it to my main account. LOL

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't the code come separately from the game? Just like how the Imperial Edition items and Explorer's Pack were separate codes.

I have all those things and would gladly exchange both the Dwemer Sphere and the Ice Wraith as well as my Mask of Cheerful Slaughter for the black cat! Why am I being punished for supporting the game with an unbroken sub since launch???
Ah well, I'm growing attached to the little Nixad anyway. But I hope a similar black cat (minus the red collar, the other 2 cat pets do not have a collar) does become available at some point in the future.

I have all of these and I think the loyalty program should still be in place, allowing everyone who subscribes long enough to earn these rewards regardless of when they joined the game. Exclusive content sucks, even if it's only cosmetic.As long as the old subscriber loyalty rewards from before ESO 2.0 stay exclusive, I am unruffled.
