Normally I don't care about the legion of pets that path to the danger room but in my latest fort it seems to be causing a lot of job cancellation messages. Some dog will get it's teeth knocked out by a spike, then die. The dogs body will get tossed in a coffin, but then a series of "Urist McBurial cannot place item in tomb, item misplaced" occur, all going after the part of the pet that was knocked loose. If I forbid the part the messages stop.

If Urist can get the the dogs body while pointy sticks are trying to ram themselves up his ass, why is picking up a loose tooth a problem? Has it always been this way with danger rooms, or did I just realize it this time (guess I'll have to dig up my old game folders and try it), or is something new with .18?

Have you disallowed pets from tombs? (as the default in the init file or toggling it in-game) It seems that would make your dwarves stop wanting to entomb pets.

Does burying a pet give the owner a happy thought? Need all the happiness I can get after 45 or so pet deaths.

***It appears that the same issue will occur taking the parts to the refuse pile instead of the tomb.

If you've got the time you can try making a mist generator, it works wonders. I've never buried a pet so I wouldn't know about the pet burying thing.
