The difference between a "totem" and a pet is you have full control over a pet and it has a standard pet UnitFrame. "Totems" just have a round button, sometimes with a timer on it. They always act on their own and are uncontrollable. Most "totems" can be dismissed by right-clicking their button on the PlayerFrame.

Just took a look at this and found it working this way with the warlock short term demons. Death Knight seemed to use the pet bar and at least survival hunter only has the one pet. It's likely the beast master multiple summoned beasts will be a totem. So added it to the todo list for nUI for after pre-launch patch hits and I have nUI working somewhat stable.
