SO! For those of you who may remember, around 2011ish I had a Meezer named GT (which I believe stood for his parents' initials) that I loved to pieces. I don't have it any longer, but in fact, I did make a mug shaped like his head in art class in what must have been the 6th grade. Fortunately, even after multiple hard drive changes, I still have his file! (Thank you, Vanilla <3) Unfortunately, I was a P5 user at that point, so that file... doesn't work with anything I have right now, lol. I know there's a way to manually convert P5 Petz to P4, but also (iirc) that said Petz lose their personalities when you do, and GT's personality was what really made me click with him even after adopting him from (I believe) kezune . HOWEVER. Apparently this thing called PetFlux came out since I was last in the PC and it lets you keep the personality values!? Wild! Incredible! A gamechanger!!! MY BOY RETURNS HOME!!!! : D So let's do this thing. The decision I needed to make first was whether to re-raise him from kittenhood again or to keep him as an adult. I thought it might be a cute little dynamic for him to be the one old man with Cayenne and Zamazenta- my current DG Petz, who'll get their own threads when I get a K&C board- but then I remembered his whole little thing was that he mated with every girl cat and figured, hmm, maybe leaning into that would start to get weird when Zamazenta grew up. So, a little kitten he becomes once more. (This is totally how naturally raising animals works, right?) ... Oh he is SO goofy-looking. look AT him. this is the ideal male body. you may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like. (do people still like that meme? whatever, this is a throwback thread anyway) Okay, enough goofiness. this is a serious game for serious people. hahaha sike Taking a break for right now because brain bandwidth has been bad lately but I will be back... soon? Within the day. With pix of him and the others and such. BONUS: goofy adult pix because this boy is a muppet

Was feeling super sick, so I didn't get around to continuing the GTventures yesterday. However! His integration to the group begins > : ) The first kitty he met was Cayenne. Trial by fire... Sort of? They completely ignored each other. If they hadn't tussled (only playfighting, I think) for a few seconds a couple times, I'd say there was a glitch and the game didn't recognize that both of them were there, but no, I just... couldn't get them to interact. So, not much to say, but I guess it could have been worse. Now, with Zamazenta, it was a different story. They would not leave each other alone at all. Zamazenta would pounce on GT at any opportunity, but it was sort of... hard to tell if there was any serious animosity there? GT glared at her for a minute before they properly met, but Zamazenta (can I call her Zama? Maybe Zenta?) was hopping when they introduced themselves, and sure, they did fight the entire time, but I caught GT licking Zenta once, which was sweet, and he moped very cutely when I put Zenta away. So we'll see where that goes, I guess. Exhibit A. Last but not least was the new girl, Pianoforte, who I'll make a thread for when I get my cattery board set up. Poor Piano wasn't getting any attention from him at all, but she was super intrigued by him. I'm not sure they ever even introduced themselves properly, but Piano... did do this... I thought at first it was some sort of maternal instinct, but when she set him down the second time (she did this twice) she started batting him around like a toy, so. Not sure what that was about. It was my first memorable laugh of the day, though! I was going to wait for them to properly meet- you know the deal, where they sniff each other and stuff- but GT was getting sleepy, and so was I. Overall, it seems like GT is a bit of a loner when he's not forced to be by Zamazenta's relentless pestering. That's fine, but hopefully it'll change as the days go on. Historically, he falls in love super easily, so once they're all adults, we'll see if that keeps up...

WELCOME HOME, GT! As someone who also recently had an entire litter they'd considered lost forever fluxed back into P4 (my thanks forever to ECRose for doing it for me ❤️), I know how this feels.
And I actually think GT's proportions are just wonderful! What a beautiful cat. Can't wait to see how he grows up.

RIGHT it's awesome!! And oh I love them too, I'd just forgotten how goofy they look at age 12. He hit age 100 a little bit ago; here he is all grown up ^_^ Thank you!
