One aspect of being a Ranger and having Combat pets is the need to feed them. You may be thinking, why do we need to feed them? After all they are just digital images in a game. Well the reason is that Pets do varying amounts of damage depending on their happiness level. Pets do either 75% damage, 100% damage, or 125% damage depending on how well they are fed. Pet food also heals your pets. So in-between fights if you need to heal up your pets give them some food.
So of course we all want a happy pet that is performing optimally and doing 125%. To do this you have to feed your pet its prefered type of food, and also food that is level appropriate. In the picture you will see a brief description of a level 4 Slimyr's diet, and its current happiness level. you can either purchase pet food at a vendor or collect it as random drops from mobs. Try to feed your pet food that is as close to the level of the pet as possible, such as from the zone your curently questing in. If you have any food type in your bag you can select it and click "feed" ( see it at the bottom of the inventory area) and this will bring up the box that you see on the left hand side. There is also a spell available that is called...you guessed it, Feed pet. So keep your Pets happy and healthy and good hunting.
