Is it even possible to get store pets from Dec 18th? I'm saying no because Cs needs money and stuff to keep running, and with the chance of getting them for free nobody will buy them, but still, is it?

Yeah, you can't get store pets on December 18th. That would be unfair to the people who bought them.

No, CS Store pets are not re-released on the 18th.

It was possible in 2009 and 2010, but it no longer is, no.
I don't even recall if it was possible for any store pet, but I do know of re-released orange cerberus pets from those two years.

I love the new deer

I have a question are they even gonna release store pets this month ;v;

yeah theyre super cute!
I don't think they usually release them during the advent times... not sure though

They do release them, they're just running a bit late!

Just going to post what Kyar said to this:

hm, I'm not asking this question out of impatience, but rather from curiosity. do the store pets for December always come out this late?

There are no store pets for December - it's every other month

Usually they are released in December but I'm wondering if perhaps the artists haven't decided to push it off to January since then we wouldn't have the awkward year-gap set and have to put them out at the same time as the advent calendar? They've been late in the past but I wouldn't be surprised if like the staff pets they made the executive decision to break tradition to make this time a little less stressful for the art people on the site lol.
But I don't know! This is just speculation.

If memory serves the rereleased cerberus thing was an accident and it wasn't supposed to have been in the pot for the 18th. It is kind of a shame too - considering one of my very favorite pets on the site is a store pet! Lol. :)

Accident or not, it did happen :'D (Twice)
I just couldn't recall if it was only the cerb or if it happened with other pets. My memory is so leaky :c

I didn't realize it was twice lol - I've never heard of the skelebun being rereleased so that's part of why I thought it was a mistake? Lol - I don't know!

Meanwhile I'm just waiting for some standard-lineart cats lol. I came to appreciate the lines much much more after a) actually getting a cat and b) working with the lines myself!

Tbf this is the only december 09 cerb I can currently remember, but I'm fairly sure that the set was already out of the store at that time (and the new ones came in on the 21st), so I doubt the date's a coincidence.

Me thinks we're still lacking some christmas decorations for this year, but I'm sure we'll get them eventually. We always do, after all^^
So I'm holding out my hopes for more food themed pets. I always love the food themes, it's really difficult not to hoard pets like that :'D
