It may be that you use both your slots and then get attacked before you can rest (hopefully not by a [collective noun] of grudge tarrasques!). That's the rational risk/reward you're calculating.It's up to the player, not the DM, how the PC casts their spells.If the player wants to take the trouble to haul around a cage full of chickens, just be realistic about the consequences, not arbitrary, not with the universe suspending its own laws just to vex me. I'll be realistic about choosing whether or not to haul around a cage of chickens.So far, I never have. None of my PCs has ever carried around a 'bag of rats' either literally or figuratively. I can envision a larger caravan carrying such things for food, and if they did then I'd be around just before they killed one to hex it if I didn't expect action in the next hour, because that makes sense! I'm taking advantage of the laws of the universe for my own advantage, just like every living creature in the universe!What do you think is poorly designed? The spell? How Pact Magic works? I really don't see a problem here.</blockquote>
