Mount Mini-Me is a simple addon which allows a pet to be paired with a mount or minion (Hunters & Warlocks). Once paired up, whenever you summon that mount or minion, the paired pet will also be summoned.
Features
- Will work with any random mount summoning addon, only summons a pet after you have mounted
- Pairing, unpairing, and summoning of pets via minimap button or slash commands
- Critter indicator added to mount UI showing if the mount has a paired pet
- Mount UI tooltip displays the name of the paired pet
- Option to dismiss pet when going in to stealth. Your last summoned pet will be re-summoned when you leave stealth
- Option to summon a specified pet or dismiss pets when dismounting. The dismounted pet can be set by dismounting and using the minimap button or slash commands as normal. There is also an option to store a dismount pet per-character so it is easy to share mini-me pets across all your characters. For each character, you can also choose to save a dismount pet per-talent specialisation
- Hunter pet mode allows you to associate a companion with your hunter pet as well as your mounts. This will also work for other pet classes like Warlocks.
- Shapeshift mode allows you to associate a companion with a form chosen from the stance bar (e.g. Druid forms, Priest shadowform, etc)

Ah, the sadness. Still missing this amazing addon!
In reply to kittykatmax:
You and me both!
Still checking weekly to see if this gets updated. Miss it terribly!
In reply to Tazr:
ditto!
Very much missing this awesome addon. Hope an update is still in the works.
This has to be one of my favourite addons, and I'm so sad that it's still not working. Obviously, we all have lives, and fixing this sort of thing is unlikely to be on anyone's list of priorities! If it never gets updated I'll understand, but I'd be _so_ happy if it were to be fixed!
Thanks for a great addon.
Just curious if there are still plans to update this, and if so, are we talking weeks or months? Just want to know how often to come back to check if it's been updated - or if I should check at all.
Thank you so much for this wonderful addon!
Does not work anymore.

Bumped the version number up to work with BfA. Currently only summoning on dismount is working due to changes to the API. I will update on the weekend when I get some time.

I'm back! After a hiatus due to being extremely busy at work I am now ready to continue development. The first release I do will be to update the addon to the correct WoW version, then I will get on to functionality changes.
@Poisednoise - It shouldn't be too hard to add in the druid forms, and now that I actually have a druid alt I'll get to work
Cheers,
Syrae
Great news! Don't feel any need to rush though - I'll be grateful whenever it happens! ;)
Welcome back! This is such a fun little addon, I'm glad you're able to update it again!
I recently dusted off a neglected warlock alt and had a lot of fun assigning pet-pet pairs, so thanks very much for including the hunter/warlock pet options!
I also have a request.... When leveling that warlock alt, I ran into some trouble with a quest ("Eye See You") in Aszuna. That quest requires using an NPC's Eye of Kilrogg to scout the area, but any sort of automated mini-pet summon/dismissal causes the Eye of Kilrogg to despawn. (Apparently there are other addons like Mount Mini-Me that also result in this problem.) Anyway, I was able to temporarily disable this addon and finish the quest, but just in case other situations like that arise, I wondered if you might be able to add another set of minimap button options or slash commands, to suspend/resume automatic pet summon/dismissal? It really isn't a big deal, since it is perfectly possible to do that by using the in-game "AddOns" menu. But it would be even more convenient to be able to do that via the minimap button....
