While I am pleased that ZOS has added some creatures you can pet to the game, many of their brethren in older content remain non-interactive. The plight of these poor creatures must be raised so they can get the petting and cuddles they deserve!

I will start by listing the dog at the eastern gate of Craglorn.

    Actually, I would love to be able to pet all the in game animals, large and small. Well.... hmm. Maybe not dragons or other hostiles....

    But the rest, yes absolutely!

    When I first started crafting on my main character back in December, food ingredients were tough to find, as that was my only character then, so I was killing the monkeys in the ruin in Auridon for their bananas. Now I just want to pet the cute little things (although they probably just want to see my back as I'm leaving, LOL).

    I think similar about all the sheep at khenartis roost. I needed a load of guts for fishing.

    Overland difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 24 DLCs. 40 game changing updates including One Tamriel, an overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver & Gold as a "you think you do but you don't" - tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game. I'm bored of dungeons, I'm bored of trials; make a personal difficulty slider for overland. It's not that hard.

    There's a gryphon in a dungeon. A dog somewhere that even had a line to do it.

    I feel like there's more

    The ones I can think of off the top of my head are the young gryphons in coral aerie

    The cat in Gonfalon bay near the crafting area (there is an achievement to find the other pettables in high isle too)

    the dog in Cyrodiil (on EP side I think its north morrowind)

    The dog staring at the sweetrolls stand in Belkarth

    The cow in Vastyr

    There is a dog in Blackwood you can dance with

    Edit - found a list https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Category:Online-Creatures-Pettable

    I would also like to pet some guar. I would like a petable guar to place in my house as well so visitors could pet one too.

    I have 10 cats. The one most feral cat has health issues and i was asked to keep him inside. Name is Truffles. In 5 years almost now i have never been allowed to pet him. He is def a calmer cat than when he arrived and no longer swats me when i put food out in front of him. He gets along real well with the other cats, doesn't scratch furniture like the other cats do and always uses the litter box. I just cant touch him or pick him up or take him to a vet. Not truly a pet in the strictest sense but def lives here as family.

    100% agree to this, but also any new animals added now have names (even if you can't interact with them) however animals in older areas are still just 'dog', 'horse'. I feel sad for them and want them to have names <3
