hostile or peaceful?
OK, I've checked the source, and it looks like it has nothing to do with the pet being a non-eating monster or not. It seems to me that pets will only become hostile if left alone on a level for a very long time, or if revived after being abused a lot. In all other cases (mounting, kicking a steed, or even directly attacking), the monster will become peaceful when tameness reach 0.
