Here are the problems with this, (which I'm 99.9% sure of):
The minor problem is that Panda cannot give custom pets items, so all the novices would look exactly the same, which probably isn't what you had in mind.
The major problem is that novices aren't NPCs. Every pet is an actual monster modified from the monster database. That is why when you type in @whodrops unripe apple, you'll get both poring and pet poring. In order for this to work, panda would actually have to create a brand new monster herself with the sprite of a novice and give it custom stats.
Not feasible.
I'd love to have a pet like that, but there's really just no way.
It's somewhat possible that Panda may one day release biolab mobs as pets, which would somewhat fulfill this suggestion.
