I have three pets, a cat, a wolf, and a CRAB. Scrambles, (LvL 45, I'm 45) is a wonderful pet. Crabs are somewhat mini tanks. They can definatley hold a mob. During rescue OOX in tanaris, scrambles held 3 sorpoids pretty fine. His armor is 6500 unbuffed, and bestial wraith is a VERY good addition to crabs. I also enjoy crabs because they add exotic and uniqueness to most hunters. You mostly see cats and wolves today. A crab is the last thing you expect in PvP or fighting. Why? People judge a book by the cover. Crabs are good, they also add a laugh to the game.
