Remember the Gambler's Fallacy. It states that many gamblers believe that a game of luck is "due" after a while in a game in which every round is completely random among the same number of items with equal distributions. That, however, is not true; every round is independent of one another, meaning that you have the exact same odds every time. While your chances in VRAC are 1 in 100 when you adopt the first pet, they are still 1 in 100 when you adopt the second, third, hundredth, or thousandth.
However, while we're on the subject of Gambler's Fallacy, the initial theory is correct when playing a game with playing cards in which the cards are not shuffled back into the deck after the first hand.
