It’s so sad you can’t pet your horse

[Spookybutterfly]

Whenever I go through my farm making sure every single animal gets their daily dose of affection it always makes me sad I can’t do the same with my horse. I understand that the horse is mechanically different than the other animals but maybe the first time you interact with the horse that day you pet it and then after you would hop on. If you had to build a relationship with your horse that could have some interesting results, like maybe your horse getting faster or being able to cross narrow places and maybe like the dogs and cats it occasionally drops something.

I haven't had the chance to get a horse yet, but I can't imagine not being able to pet it! I like your ideas about petting providing speed benefits.

Me too! It is very frustrating that you can’t pet your horse or feed it for that matter.

Can't you feed your horse carrots now for a small speed boost?

My most disappointed thing is that I can't pet my rabbits.

Why not? You can pet the rabbits the same as the other animals.

I have auto-petter but I don't think it is an action of petting.
I can't treat rabbit like my cat or dog because rabbits are just as functional as cow or sheep.
You don't have access to change their colors or give them hats.
No matter how many rabbits you take care of in your farm, they just look like the same. They are not your pets, they are your cash maker.
I suppose a lot of people love rabbits as they are so cute. If they have same position as cat or dog, I will be grateful.

That's why I grow a bunch of carrots and set a chest next to my horse's stable thing. I filled the chest with carrots and give my horse one every day because I love my horse- ;-;

I think all animals should be able to be hatted and customised, they all deserve love, it's not there fault they're valuable/delicious! I too, desperately wish to bestow love upon my horse (his name is Lipton and i love him) also as someone said in another thread it'd be really cool if we could change their coats too
