Two words: You. Can't.
I have seen lots of questions about how to keep a pet. How to prevent others from buying the pet. What strategies to use to ensure you can always buy the pet back.
In short... there is nothing you can do. Sure, you can keep a pet for a while. But not forever, so learn to deal with it.
People may argue that it is possible, but there is a very simple explanation about why you cannot. Consider my previous post about Buying Wars. If somebody wants your pet, and has more cash than you, then they will own your pet at the end of the war. Done. Fini. End of story.
This buying war might occur over days or weeks, and among multiple people, but eventually you will run out of cash, and somebody else will "keep" your pet until you can manage to get enough cash to buy it back. For a little while.
Your allowance of $2,000 every four hours will generate cash to buy your pet back, but it does not work well for an expensive pet. Let's say you have a pet with a value of $100,000. Somebody buys the pet, you get $106,000 back. The pet's value is now $112,000. You will need to buy the pet for about $125,000. That means you are $19,000 short, which will take 40 hours of allowances to come up with.
In a pinch, you can use Invites to generate cash. But that is a limited option, and your friends may not like the invite spam.
Coming up with cash through allowances, invites, or waiting for other pets to sell are all tactics to generate money to buy your pet back. But you still can't keep the pet.

The funny thing is, most of the time when you're have a bidwar over a pet you want the sucker to be left with the pet and will stop once they're out of money.
So by obtaining more money to keep a pet you're just prolonging the pain for yourself.
I've found that if you really want to keep a pet (in the long run), the best thing to do is let them be free for a while. If somebody buys him or her, don't buy back immediately. That will only trigger a bidding war. Let the other person hold on to them for a while, get bored, and maybe view that person as a "bad investment." Then you can come back and buy your desired pet. . .
