The Stuffed Stocking! It could float, a la Gusting Grimoire (we have kite, skull and book pets, why not stockings?) It'd be red, with a white border on the top (think Santa hat) and maybe have a doll's head or something else sticking out of the top. Either way it would be obviously full.

For abilities, "Nail:" Does 100 Mechanical damage instantly, and 20 Mechanical damage for two rounds.
"Lump of Coal:" You have been naughty! Does [#] Elemental Damage.
"Spirit of the Season:" Heals all pets for 100 hp.

I would like to propose a Christmas Krampus.

The Krampus is a creature from the mountainous areas who was supposed to punish children who had been bad during the Christmas season. In appearance, Krampus would look a lot like a satyr, as he is described as 'demonic in appearance', and is often illustrated with big goat-like horns, hooves, a furry body, and carrying a bag and bundle of birch sticks (for giving away and for flogging bad little children) or a whip in later iterations. Using the satyr body type would be great, with a dark and red color pallet, and some larger horns.

For abilities:
- Stick Smack, 95% hit, does humanoid damage [just smacks the enemy with a stick]
- Switched!, 100% hit, does low humanoid damage and has a 25% to stun the enemy for a turn [lashes out with a whip/willow switch weapon]
- Naughty Or Nice, 50% chance to hit, high damage mechanical damage, but will heal the opponent for that damage if it misses. [Throws a package/sack at the enemy]

Ghost Of Winter's Veil
An Undead-type pet that hovers and has three sides to it to represent Past, Present, and Future. Past is grey and has one large cyclops like eye. Present is red and has two eyes, both open. Future has two eyes with a third eye in the center and is red in color. It's entire appearance is stone, so the colors are more overtones to it. It's three abilities are:

Past: Curse the pet with visions of the past, sometimes causing it to miss. When it does it, it takes a 1/4 of its damage dealt in damage to itself.
Present: Shoots a beam of frosty Christmas spirit that deals X amount of damage.
Future: Places a swirling void beneath the target that will erupt in three turns doing X amount of damage to them and 1/2 that damage to the backrow pets.

The Festive Fruit Cake. A holiday treat brought to life with the spirit of Winter's Veil. The fruit cake would be a circle style traditional fruit cake patterned with fruit slices.

Ability 1: Tough Chew - Magic Attack - A piece of fruit cake is thrown at the enemy choking them and causing them to take damage. 25% chance for the enemy pet to consume too much of the fruit cakes rum and fall asleep.

Ability 2: Fruit Rain - Magic Attack - The user calls down a torrent of fruit dealing damage to the enemy front line and healing the user for a small amount.

Ability 3: Fruit Roll - Beast Attack - The fruit cake rolls into the enemy front line with such force he sends the pet ricocheting into 1 back-line pet for partial damage.

An adorable Jingle Bell!

A floating little golden bell (either roundy or traditional hand bell style - I could love it either way) with a festive colored ribbon (red, green, white or any combination of stripes of either) tied on top. Random jingle sounds occur when summoned. The more skins for the ribbon color the better in my opinion :D

Abilities:
-Jingle; A distracting sound causing the enemy reducing their chance to hit by 20% for 3 rounds.
-Holiday Cheer; Weather effect, a small heal for your team and decreases damage taken by 25% for pets in play
-Harness; your little bell straps itself to a reindeer (on the harness obviously) on a sleigh team, which will work as trample for the next 3 rounds.

Grumpy Lump of Coal You've never wanted on the naughty list so bad in your life! This year Santa delivers a Grumpy Lump of Coal to all the bad girls and boys. Nothing special about it! It's a black rock, on the ground, with no animation. It doesn't even follow you around because it's so grumpy. It's pretty much a lump. Aren't you excited? But we want pets for Christmas, regardless of how awful it is!


Abilities:

Soot - Grumpy Lump of Coal Lights itself on fire, creating a cloud of Soot, blinding the target for 2 Rounds.
Naughty List - Grumpy Lump of coal pelts itself at the target for 93 damage, continuing for 4 rounds.
Making Spirits Bright - Grumpy Lump of Coal spontaneously combusts, dealing 396 damage to the target. Deals an additional 249 if the target is Blinded.


((I know the abilities aren't "festive" in particular, but there's only so much you can do with a lump of coal... that's why the bad kids get it to play with instead of presents!))


*EDIT* ... and then I realized there is already a pet called "Lumpy." This is what happens when you have over 500 pets and can't keep them all straight! The only reason I realized this was because I saw one on the AH this morning!
