There was nothing wrong with old order, nor the new; they're just different. Months ago, the order was the same as it is now, then it was changed (and there were complaints about that), now it's been changed back. It might have been done as a belated response to the original complaints, but I think it's more likely that one of the developers decided it was worth trying this order again.

In some ways, it's more logical as it is now. Having pets in reverse alphabetical order means wolves are at the top, and since wolves are the first pet that users get, this order means that relatively new users see their pet right at the top of the page. Having colours in rarity order definitely makes more sense to some users; there's been several comments in the Tavern saying how pleased they are that rarity order is back.

If you feel that strict alphabetical order is best, submit a comment with your reasons to Trello (see the "Request Feature" link in HabitRPG's footer). Please keep in mind though that there'll be other people saying the opposite, so it's not guaranteed that your request will be implemented.
