Bonding (?) Pets

[eXeZ|Gamer433]

Hey there.

When I started my very first game (my current save bases on that), three of my pawns had pets which was bonded (sorry, I have no clue how is the correct description for that in english) to them.

Now, three years (in game) later, only the little monkey is a alive, but I have new pets in my home. Cat, dog, for example. But I have absolutely no clue, how I can bond (?) them to a pawn.
When I train them, I can choose, to whom they belong, but they never "attach" to the pawn.

Narf, I hope, you know what I am trying to tell.

I found nothing in the Wiki about that. I have 6 pets (not just animals), but only the little monkey (from start) belongs really to one of my pawns.

What do I miss?

Bonding is random, it can occur as a result of medical interaction, training or nuzzling by the animal.

Really? I cant control that? Okay, by training (what you say), but what is, when the pet is completeley trained? I just need luck and patience?

that's that spend a lot of time near colonists are more likely to fire the nuzzle event. if the pet can be assigned to someone, having them follow them around during chores (as long as it won't cause a huge mess) can also increase the chances of a nuzzle.

Training decay is also a thing as is tameness decay on more wild animals (not cats and dogs, but wargs and megasloths or other wild things).
