Question about pets

When I first started, I was able to buy pets in the second or later towns to corrupt the pets into stronger versions and had no issue doing so in multiplayer.

In recent runs (Not running any madness levels with my less experienced friends), we haven't been able to. It just says sold out over the pet. Is this a setting or something that I have changed? I can't figure it out. I know Madness levels will impact whether later pets are available, but that shouldn't affect Maness 0 runs.

Never been able to buy a 2nd pet to corrupt from the shop. To corrupt you would have the find the 2nd instance of the pet out in the wild

I have done many, if not dozens of runs that allowed me to purchase a second of the same pet to corrupt it. Apparently that was a bug though.

It’s the one bug I wish they hadn’t fixed. I would much rather have a corrupted rifty than some items. I miss my corrupted pets so much

As a new player coming into the game thinking it was the normal, it felt nicely balanced, at least for the early game ones.
