WEEK ONE, DAY ONE
Take out a pet you have never played with and try to find them a friend.
Okay, this one is actually a setback, but I'm not sure what else to do, haha ... I already have a cali in my naturally raised crew, so I figured I'd be fine if I played with Theo, one of my other show Catz who tbh will probably never reach SGCh because I don't have the opportunity show him anymore with all the NR kitties >>; He was bred here in September!
First step was putting all my NR Petz in a different folder because I knew I'd be tempted if he made a friend out of one of them, lol. After that, it was down to chance- i.e. me going down the list in alphabetical order.
Our first potential friend was Acorn, also bred by me.
Hmm, not a great first impression. Acorn kept bumping into Theo and pissing him off, and Theo didn't even blink when I put Acorn away.
Next up was Adonis, a gorgeous oshie
Megan@Xoops 🌼 gifted to me as part of PL's trick or treating event :3
... Hate at first sight. Moving on ...
Our next contender(?), Alabaster the BWS, was bred by
commander . Ahh, everyone in this community is so talented at breeding!!!
He's also a very needy boy, apparently. I left him alone for five seconds to play with Theo and he started crying right away. Honestly, I think Theo was kinda... saddened by it? What's with that look!?
Number four was Alfornada, bred by
Celia @ FH - a fellow tabby-striped cali.
...Who Theo was
also existentially saddened by.
I don't understand him. He looks like he's seeing their death every time he looks at another cat.
Our fourth potential friend for Theo was Alice, bred by me.
WHO HE WAS EVIL TO. I didn't get a good pic of them fighting, but he was vicious. What is up with this cat!! I thought calicos are supposed to be friendly!!!
Time to test the next five: Alicia, Almond, Amma, Anthem, and Aphrodite. Maybe he'll like Dogz more than Catz...
First, though, is another cat from me, Alicia the purebred meezer! I kept her from a breeding project that I like... finished but didn't? Eh, whatever. Anyway ...
Okay, so they didn't hate each other, but Alicia was really only into play-fighting with him, so Theo didn't really care for her- or about her, honestly.
Theo's first doggy interaction was with Almond, a scottie from
Bunni 's fall festival booth.
HARD NO.
Sigh. Okay. Amma the alley cat was bred by me and is a very pretty lady if i may say so myself!! But will she befriend Theo??
Uh. I guess? Theo gets sad when I put her away, but they also don't really pay attention to each other, and the feeling isn't requited, so I'm not gonna count it. But at least now we know he's physically capable of caring about another pet.
I was reluctant to bring out another dog, but Anthem (bred by
ECRose ) was up next, and really, I can't judge all Dogz by Almond's actions.
Okay, so I didn't want to wait around to get a good picture and let Anthem get terrorized more, but MAN i really was worrying about the wrong pet, huh ...
Maybe third time would be the charm with Aphrodite, a mutt bred by me.
Well, sorta! Theo loved her, but- unless I don't really get dog body language?- she wasn't particularly attached to him and I guess was only playful due to her muttliness. So I guess they're technically not friends... Poor Theo.
We're getting to the end of my A names ... Next up are Argent, Arson, Astro, August, and Bazzle.
Argent, bred by
salem , is a very teeny boy, so I was a little hesitant to expose him to Theo, who I've learned by now is easily the meanest Catz I've played with from my crew.
DEEP sigh. I thought maybe he had, because they were very intrigued by each other, but I guess it was just curiosity, because he didn't care at all when I put Argent away. AGGGGHHHHH.
Onto Arson it is. This lovely kitty was bred by
☀️Alexzander☀️ for the PL trick or treat event, and surprisingly isn't related to Amma! I had to double check, like "wait, who are Amma's parents again?", but she's actually the daughter of two of my RBs, which is weird.
Arson was a bit tortured by Theo's constant playfighting, even though I guess technically they didn't ever devolve into actual fighting. Still, though, not friends. >_>;;
Next up was August, one of my homebrewed meezers.
...Who looked at Theo the wrong way once and cemented himself as a cat that Theo is So So Afraid Of. he didn't even touch you !!! my god!!!!!
Bazzle is up next ... He's a gorgeous hexie from
Amanda , and I love him, but I'm losing faith in Theo's ability to make friends.
... No love here. They did get along, though- I think I'd count playfighting as getting along?
At this point I started craving Halloween candy, but I knew if I stopped here I'd never touch this endeavor again. Maybe I should have stopped with Aphrodite... agggghhhh.
Sigh. Benoit, a Fractal Meezer named after the mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot, was up next.
nope.
Next, Betty, another cat from Celia. pleasepleasepleaseplease
YESYESYESYESYES
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't understand him. He looks like he's seeing their death every time he looks at another cat.
I have actually done custom music before but I have never had any issues with it. You could try renaming it as one of the original songs and remove the original song from the songz folder.
got my game going now yay!!!!
