Pets may run away because they might think their owner is trying to attack them or they are scared. Do not chase them, make them chase you and make them get used to your natural smell.
because they hate you
You can mistreat them or accidentally let them out or just abandon them
Nope.
pets cant die BUT they can run away if you dont feed them or give them enough water... meaning they basically do die. if they do run away just buy a new one from taverley and take better care of it ;) good luck.

I hadn't been on binweevils for a while, and i went on this morning, when i went in to where her bed was, she wasnt there, i looked all around my nest for her but shes gone :( i guess they can run away :(
yea but a man comes and revives them and if u dont take enough care for ur dogs/cats they run away:)
For the PS2 version, you can make your animals run away by not caring for them (making them starve, not buying a bed for them, etc.) but I am not sure if it will work for PC.
I don't think they can,but I haven't tried it,but I know for a fact that your pets can not die,they will just run away if in a really bad mood for a while.
After you obtain a pet -catching it, buying it, etc- you just have to right click the pet in your inventory and click "drop." The pet will follow you but beware of how hungry it is. When it reaches 100 it will run away. Certain pets like cats also need extra interaction or else they will run away. For more information on pets see: http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Pets
The only way that I know is to don't do anything with it and just let it sleep. Eventually it might run away.
not that i know of! i never seen a bunny do a trick. i just see them run away from humans and pets!
