You could just as easily save each pets stats, such as exp, hps, mana, move,
etc, etc. Especially if you have ASCII pfiles.
read in the mob from it's vnum saved in the pfile.
Then add PetHP: <num>, PetMa: <num>, PetEx: <num>, etc
If none of these are read in then the mob is default, otherwise the stat is
changed by load_char.
