Happy New Year, everyone!
NYE was a bit chaotic. I dropped by the Discord party but I was away most of the time because of irl mini-party. I ultimately didn't have a ton of time to petz, so I only brought out two groups: my cat bffs trio and Raffles's family. (I'd previously thought I'd do a mega party in my game haha.)
First, I dressed up Raffles. He later decided to "improve" his outfit.
Caro and her mum Scruffy.
I also dressed up Lobo. Except.
The discord was going to have a costume party, so I picked Raffles, Caro, and Lobo to get dressed from scratch.
Raffles! He often picks colour-coordinated stuff in yellow or black, last night was no exception.
Caro. She went from picking a single pair of bunny ears to... this.
Lobo xD I love the bow tie.
I also let others get dressed. Except for Cloudberry, who hates clothes so she attended the party in the her birthday suit.
Lizard's outfit was honestly my favourite.
Seaglass.
Rain. She doesn't have a tail so she looks like she just has a random bow on her butt xD
Hermit. I had her keep her chicken hat.
Hermit's daughter Dandelion picked a cow hat.
Ollie <3
Spirit. Just look at how he layered headwear!
Aaand this baby, who picked a flower crown and looks adorable.
Meanwhile, with the cats I did a mix of letting them choose and picking stuff myself. Y'know, from keeping it from being a total fashion disaster. Theirs was the first party of the evening so I was full of good intentions.
I just realised Scrampus is hiding behind that teddy (they were catching the treats I spread around the room!), so here's an extra picture:
She's wearing a tiny tail bow. Overall, gyiyg's tail bows were a great success!
Bell wore that flapper headband, which really fits her elegant style, and Ragtag wore my favourite outfit of the evening.
It was fun. Mostly everyone just danced, played, and ate treats haha.

Ohh the idea with the colorful balls is so good, I might try it with my own pets! I love Rain picking orange because it reminds her of her family XD She kind of IS the odd one out... I love her colors so much, though.
Clem really is so big! I didn't think they got so big. I think the ones I have are the tinier ones XD I LOVE her section of trying different things, haha, she really is a Mean Girl. Spirit's part was also so cute! And "Cinnamon was not impressed" made me laugh XD
I love the Halloween kittens omg! They're all so cute. And basket of kittens is suuch a cute pic.
Meera is adorable! I looove the dusty coat with white eyelids <33 And the cousins are also adorable... the Baby is as perfect as Seaglass and Lobo are <3
I love how similar Hermit, Rain and Seaglass look! They all have Raffles' little face ^v^

This update is a bit scattered. Sorry.
Raffles makes a new friend
This is Bunny the bunny. He's from Megan@Xoops ❄️ and I absolutely adore him.
So does Raffles, who seems to really him! He's always watching Bunny and even gets sad when I put him away.
Singing a lullaby for Bunny.
"What's in this? It's not rabbit, is it?"
The Petz Virus
Something seems to be going around in my game because my pets have been getting sick a lot lately!
Raffles has been hit particularly hard.
The first time it happened, I brought out Seaglass to cheer him up after he took his medicine, but he just wanted to rest. I guess it's contagious because Seaglass got sick. Social distancing, folks!!
It turned out a number of my pets were sick that day... almost all of them, in fact.
Ollie escape the epidemic but had fleas. That seems to be happening a lot lately.
Bunnies
I was bored so I brought out the bunnies (and the cat bunnies) to show them random stuff.
Bunny tried to be brave about the Jack o' Lantern... it didn't work.
Passive-aggressive skateboarding.
Bunny was obsessed with the skateboard.
Cat lessons
Meanwhile, I won this alley from gyiyg. I didn't expect it because there were two other people bidding aggressively, lol. Anyway, she's got hairless patches because of her rough life on the street, but she's got a home now.
I can't get over how cute she is.
She got to meet Cord, this new hexie I adopted from silverfish. Cord is like a burlap/corduroy type plushie with a button nose and a missing ear.
The regular kitten group I've been raising has 4 members, which is the maximum number of petz I can bring out without my game crashing. Here's it's just the two of them so I enlisted Ragtag to teach them how to cat.
The lesson was supposed to be about hunting mice, but I set down the cheese on the backyard fence and I guess it became a jumping/climbing lesson.
Cord managed to jump onto the fence TWICE, but didn't eat the cheese.
Flowers!
Taking care of kittens is tiring, so Ragtag fell asleep as soon as we went back inside the house.

I'm really tired today because of rl stuff, sorry this is short.
Seaglass was out yesterday (she left for bird's Reindeer Games) so Lobo and Fennel played on their own. As an aside, I'm thinking of renaming Fennel to Anise or Aniseed.
I love him.
He fortunately didn't get to miss his mum very much, because his family is so close-knit.
I had Raffles spend some time with his grandkids (Dandelion and Fennel) and his great-grandson (Lizard). The above was my attempt at taking a group picture.
Fennel takes after his parents and has a talent for catching the frisbee. He was so pleased he decided to show off.
Lizard preferred to chill to the music. I accidentally took out the water bottle but left it since Raffles seemed interested in it.
He gave it to me and accidentally sprayed himself. Poor Raffles.
I also brought out the toy car and they were constantly getting startled. Raffles has played with it before so I don't know what's up with that.
YOU'RE GETTING SCARED OF IT JUST DROP IT
Raffles decided to show everyone how to skateboard.
He's watching Dandelion very carefully.
DANG KIDS I'M GOING TO TRIP ON YOU
Self-explanatory.
Lizard took a few tentative jumps on the skateboard. Not a great first attempt.
His second attempt went much better and this dog is now officially cooler than any of us.
Fennel was still obsessed with the frisbee, and this time he celebrated catching it by scratching his butt.
Raffles caught the frisbee and skateboarded away. Showing off xD
Lizard eventually caught the frisbee!
---
Meanwhile, Seaglass successfully infiltrated the Reindeer Games. That's about as much as she did, because she spent the whole time sleeping, eating, sleeping, getting high, and also sleeping. Oh, and she had fleas at one point. She was the guest of honour, even, so I don't know what got into her.
She was sick when she got home. I guess she partied too hard!
At one point in the reindeer games, she bumped against a black paint can. This gave me the idea of painting these dogs to see what they'd look like the other way around. Fennel's markings seem to work weirdly and I couldn't paint them black.
Mostly, they were just happy to be reunited.

They all have Raffles' little face ^v^ I'm sorry! I forgot to reply to this. The colourful balls thing is really fun, just be warned it can take forever if your pet hasn't seen them before because they go and sniff each one haha. I loved Rain's choice too, it was so cute! And you're right, her colours are great. That blue (?) is really pretty.
I was so amazed by Clem's growth O.O I'm glad you liked that section, I might do it more from now on because seeing all the different reactions is really fun.
I love these Halloween kittens, I can't wait to show them off a bit more! Though right now they spend most of their time just wrestling each other, lol.
Meera is definitely super pretty, I love dusty and she's like a pompom. The Baby was such a great surprise haha.
You're right about Raffles's face, I hadn't noticed that! I really like it, it's a shame it seems to get bred out so easily. The new baby seems to have a similar face as well.

Not a lot happened today -- I mostly just let them randomly play, tried to get some pose pictures of a cat I got a while back, etc.. I still got some cute photos, though!
These two have decided they hate each other now, including lots of angry hissing. The other kitten group spend 99% of their time just wrestling (though more playfully) so I'm kind of bummed out now.
They stopped fighting when a mouse showed up. Delta immediately caught the mouse and threw it around, while Cord tried to sneak up on them to steal the mouse.
I wondered how Raffles, noted mouse fan, would react. He was not amused, I guess!
CUTE
Since Cord started bullying everyone, I gave her a timeout. Delta decided Raffles needed a bath.
I don't know what she doing but it was cute.
She then proceeded to fall asleep.
At one point, Raffles batted the music box until it started playing a lullaby and set it down next to Delta. I think it was just a coincidence (and he probably meant to bring me the music box, the cursor was near there) but it was definitely a cute one.

I've been too tired to do much petzing and to update when I do, but.
The kittens are growing up well. Don't they just look like little angels? Yeah, except they spend 99% of their time wrestling each other. It's really hard to take pictures of them. I only got this one because they'd just come out of the case.
Meanwhile, these pups are growing up well and they're almost fully grown!
Lizard ended up slightly older (probably because he was in my game on NYE when I removed almost everyone else?) and is fully grown now. He still looks cooler than I ever will.
My Winter Olympics team, meanwhile, is starting to show some rifts. I'd chosen them based on whether they got along and of course they've now decided to hate each other. Pictured above: Crisp doing the Mean Wave (tm).
Puglet doesn't seem to have beef with anyone... except clothes
Delta does NOT get along with Soot but mostly seems confused by this tiny floof.
Tim Tim does NOT like the tiny floof. "WHAT IS THIS WITCHCRAFT THIS CAT DANCER POM POM HAS GAINED SENTIENCE AND I DON'T LIKE IT"
Everyone seemed to be in a lousy mood today -- nobody seemed to want to do much. Soot's face in this picture says it all. Relatable.
They were also kind of grumpy.
This picture really cheered me up.
As did this one. I don't know what Bunny was doing but... so cute! Just look at how incredible this hexie is, he looks like something out of a storybook.
EDIT: The good news is that the sickness going around seems better now. Only 1-2 pets were sick today. Progress!

This lowkey puppy group are still growing up (except for Lizard) and this dog is really silly.
These kitties still spend much of their time play wrestling. In the picture above, you can see a tackle that went wrong hahahha.
Meanwhile, I've been having some bad luck with petz I've sent on playdates. Seaglass spent most of the reindeer games just sleeping. Star Anise did a similar thing.
And then I sent Crisp to tybaxel's WinOly playdate and she absolutely killed it.
I've decided she's the team captain now. Star Anise was not doing a good job representing the team and was literally asleep on the job.
She's very proud of herself.
She's still hilarious.
I forgot the team dogs now all hate each other for some reason and decided to throw a party to celebrate Crisp's victory. Everyone quickly decided to chase Puglet around.
Star Anise even decided to grab a stick. To be fair, Puglet keeps tackling everyone LOL
Tim Tim and Crisp definitely hate each other now!
Star Anise grabbed the stick again and everyone ganged up on Puglet for being kind of a bully.
"I'M IN DANGER"
Huh. Star Anise apparently hates Crisp too because he joined Tim Tim in waving goodbye when I sent her inside.
At least Tim Tim and Star Anise don't hate each other guts, though she keeps accidentally knocking him over and this makes him angry xD

I'm having kind of a hard time keeping up with everything so this is just a quick update.
Delta is almost fully grown (99 today!) and I discovered she's a trickster.
Also almost fully grown? Cord!
These two dogs are fully grown now!! And they still need good names.
This pup is 97 today, so he's almost fully grown as well.
This litter of Halloween kitties is fully grown now. They seem to wrestle each other a lot less so I can sometimes take normal pictures xD
I put his siblings away and he was off-screen. I took a picture to see what he was doing. This was the result.
In addition to some of my team pets (like Crisp) these are the petz I'm currently raising. They are: Roly Polly (hamster), Nettle (bunny), Toast (sheepie) and an unnamed pug. That pug has been in my game for a while, actually, after I bought her from Ratqueen's PUGS shop last year. Except I was curious about what she'd look like as a baby and aged her down. She was so tiny and cute I've been raising her from scratch since then, just to enjoy how smol she is. (She's also really small as an adult! But at age 12 she was like a pug-faced hamster)
I'm also raising these cats. Glissando (grey cat) and Mister Nutty (orange meezer) are from gyiyg and I posted about them in my show off thread. 13 has been in my game for a while and I could have sworn was an adult but, well.. you can read about that here.

So! One of the WinOly challenges is to see how many pompoms you petz can detach in two minutes. My attempt at that challenge was (spoiler alert) a total failure. Still, I'm determined to have at least one detached pompom (pom?) in my game again. After all, it was one of Raffles's favourite toys and yet my son is now living a pom-less existence.
Among my various attempts, I brought out Mr Nutty and Glissando together. This happened.
They did not seem to get along. Glissando (grey cat) was initially focused on the task at hand, which was good. If anyone can detach the pom, surely it's her. She's built like a Sumo wrestler and has severe anger issues.
Then two started... flirting???
Glissando did a happy dance around Mr Nutty, all the while making angry noises.
Mr Nutty has been, ironically, neutered. I can't handle another baby in my game right now. Maybe soon?
Or maybe not? It's hard to tell with these two!
When I sent Mr Nutty away for a bit so Glissando could fight the cat dancer alone, she got sad
She proceeded to lie down on the floor, looking super pissed.
She tried everything, including lightly poking the cat dancer, but nothing happened!
All in all, not a fruitful day.
Meanwhile, this group is going strong. Toast likes the fish. Nettle carries the tug toy around a lot.
Nettle and Roly Polly also wrestle a lot ahhaha.
Toast is a big fan of the music box, he danced a lot today! I think Nettle is asleep in the picture above.
Thank you for reading, stay majestic!
P.S.: I'm still impressed by how TINY this mixie is.
