I have to say, I'm ever so slightly disappointed about the summer butterwolf. He's gorgeous and all, fire is my favorite element after all. But I was really looking forward to a beautiful summerish butterfly, especially after spring and winter grew. Those two represent their seasons so beautifully, but why did summer get fire?

Or are they actually based on the four elements and not the four seasons? Earth, air, fire and water?

Nope defineltly seasons. You can see the leaves in all of them. Even summer. It wouldn't make sense for it to be all four elements.

Maybe it's both? Winter would be air, Spring would be water, Summer would be fire, and Fall would be earth.

Omg yes. So much yes. I'm in love.

Same. Was not expecting to see something I'd like this much in this litter.

@Shenzai - I like your theory. O:

Elements seems to be the more likely answer, especially looking at the outcomes we have.

I personally think that it's the seasons, but the summer is so hot and dry that there is a huge wildfire.

I suppose it depends on where the seasons are based off of. In western USA, wildfires are very much common in the heat of summer, but on the east coast it's simply sticky and humid, so wild fires are rare. I honestly thought the fire BFW was for fall until I realized it was fire.

Maybe I'll call my dog Aries... yes that's a hint.

Liddi's hint!

Hm, actually, now I think they could be based on forests rather than the seasons themselves.

This is a forest during snow.


This is a happy and healthy forest.

This is a forest fire.

Dunno. I just don't think the burning one would represent summer just because it's hot. And the "spring" one looks a lot more like summer to me. If it was really spring, I think there would be some flowers or something.

I could be wrong, though.

In places like California forest fires are pretty common in the summer, but other places like Virginia they almost never happen. It's all based upon opinions and stuff, so it really only depends on how you look at it.

unless Sketchi confirms stuff

This actually makes sense to me. It explains why the coon for this was sad-looking and charred grey

I dont even have a single blue fox x.x

I see it as representing summer because there are a ton of places where it gets so hot during the summer that forest fires are a very common thing, too common, imo. It seriously gets really bad in some areas and it's a truly threatening natural disaster. I could be wrong about that being how it represents summer but that's certainly how I'm seeing it.

I'm going to be so stinkin excited when a rat finally grows up. Then again, I adopted a day late so one may have grown already. Just very curious as to what the theme might be, since the babies are so elusively designed o.o

[armads]

Hmmmm. Multiple Outcomes for blue? I hit day 15 and mine is still a newborn.

yeah, it seems all the fox babies are splitting on us this month.
