Char's pets are empty until learning battle

The count is zero and the array is empty for a character such as mine who hasn't logged in since MoP launched. I know things have changed and pets are now "Battle Pets", but maybe this was an oversight?

I can't tell if it's for characters who haven't learned how to battle, or if it's just not logging in. It may apply to new characters as well, but I can't test it.

It's only for characters that haven't logged in. The data moved from character information to account wide information.

There is a bug where some people's pets are not loading at all. We're looking into it but it crosses a bunch of teams here and finding where the issue is is taking some time. Working on it.
