The Burning Crusade
Teeny Lurker Above

Wrath of the Lich King:
Ulduar:

Razorscale Hatchling
Pet Type: Dragonkin
Location: Drop: Razorscale

Steelbouncer
Pet Type: Mechanical
Location: Drop: The Assembly of Iron

Tiny Sanctum Kitten

Private Xazev

Organic Saronite
Pet Type: Magic
Location: Drop: Yogg-Saron
Description: "A harmless replica of Yogg-Saron; something no-one but the Old God itself may ever be able to explain. They do say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but it's doubtful that that phrase holds any water if the one you want to flatter is yourself."
Alternatively, because no matter how cool a tiny Yogg-Saron would be, it seems unlikely, sadly:
Faceless Hatchling
Pet Type: Magic
Location: Drop: Yogg-Saron
Description: "A footsoldier deemed unworthy of Yogg-Saron's command due to its tiny size and harmless semantics; its tie to the Death God was forcibly severed, leaving it to wander aimlessly."
Tiny Hologram

Description: "One of Go'Rath's tentacles, previously at the Faceless Warlord's beck and call now follows you. Perhaps it has acknowledged you?"

Technically not a new pet, but rather a model change:
Jumping Spider
Pet Type:[/b] Beast
Location: Pet Battle: Jade Forest
Description: "This terrifying and highly venomous species leaps onto its prey from the Jade Forest's dense canopy."
Ability added: Leap/pounce, because.. - jumping spider.
Leap
"Instantly deals 15 Beast damage and increases your speed by 100% for 1 round."

I felt the current Jumping Spider abilities and model didn't do it justice. Obviously, the Nerubianspiderling model is not completely correct either, but with its legs in a position that seem ideal for leaping/pouncing, and huge eyes, they may as well just say that they are the WoW equivalent of Jumping Spiders.
As for them looking Nerubian.. well, we have mouse pets with rat models and lizard/monitor pets with warpstalker models. I think the new model would be an upgrade either way. It fits in well with Jade Forest's surroundings, and it looks great!
Besides, quite a lot of people want that model to be available in some shape or form. I still want it as a tameable spider (despite possessing 6 legs), but a battle pet is a good start!
