About this addon
What it does
PetVigilance monitors your pet's status in real time and fires clear, configurable alerts during combat — so you never miss a dead, passive, or missing pet.
Compatible with WoW Midnight (Interface 120000+). No libraries required.
Alert Types
| | 🐾 Pet Missing |Pet not summoned at combat start |Hunter | | 💀 Pet Dead |Instant detection via UNIT_HEALTH event |All pet classes | | ⚠️ Pet Passive |Pet in passive mode during combat |Hunter / Warlock / DK | | ❤️ Low Health |Health below configurable threshold |All pet classes |
Pet Health Bar (v2.7+)
- Pet icon on the left — auto-updated
- Live HP% displayed on the bar in real time (e.g.
72%) - Green progress bar with shine highlight and pulsing blue border
- Configurable width, height and scale
- Shift+Drag to reposition — position saved across reloads
- Reset position button in config
Health Bar Style Customization (v3.0+)
Dedicated Style tab with full visual control:
| | Bar Texture |Dropdown with live mini-preview per texture | | Bar Color |R G B A sliders | | Bar Background |R G B A sliders | | Frame Background |R G B A sliders | | Border Style |Solid 1px / Tooltip / Glow / None | | Border Color |R G B A sliders | | Border Glow Pulse |Toggle pulsing animation | | Show Pet Icon |Toggle | | Show Shine Highlight |Toggle | | Show HP% Label |Toggle |
Alert Timing (v2.9+)
- "Pet Dead" is instant — fires from
UNIT_HEALTHevent, not the polling ticker - No false "Pet Missing" during Revive — death timestamp suppresses missing alert for 20s

Known Limitations — Midnight 12.0
Blizzard seals numeric health values from third-party addons. The bar uses SetValue(secret) and SetFormattedText("%.0f%%", secret) — both permitted by Blizzard for display. Color changes based on health threshold are not possible (secret value comparison triggers taint).
