One of my players, an Indian character, had a horse as companion. It died due to some falling rocks while Wind Rider, Kat's character had Nine
Lives of a Cat and survived because the body of the horse shielded her. 
Another player lend her a horse and after having finished this adventure Wind Rider prayed to the gods and went out to find another mustang. she
followed the herd for three days on foot and without eating and nearly got killed while trying to catch the stallion. She really played it out
and the rest of the posse accompanied her (and had time to solve some relation problems during this time, which did the moral no ends of good),
so I granted her the beast as new companion without buying the edge again...heck she save me from thinking of a story for the whole evening and
everybody enjoyed themselves, and I guess that should be rewarded....
