Chance decided he wanted Therese to be around for his prospective kids to strangle, er, cuddle, so he used the Grim Reaper phone. I guess 10K isn't too bad for a whole new elderhood for a fully trained dog...
Oh, cagedpetfixes does something important too... as coded by Maxis, time didn't fully stop when you went into Buy/Build with a bird or womrat on the lot. So if you left the lot hanging and wandered away, you could come back to a pet at death's doorstep without even enough time to eat something and avert disaster.
