GH Litter Discussion 2022

[Aurora Storm]

First thing's first, I just want to say that all the above fanart and dressups are ADORABLE!! Oozrook is such a cutie and all of the above drawings capture their personality so well imo!!

This guy is wobbuffet's! Their hint was it follows a similar theme to their 2021 design, and I believe that theme is magic.

Ding ding ding! It's been almost a week since mine grew, so I figured I should claim! Especially after most of the kittens had grown and been claimed, a good number of people figured out that my hint was referring to my cats' aptitude for magic.

My cat's official name is Myrtle (though you are free to call her by whatever name or pronouns you prefer of course)! She's a young witch who wants to become one of the best spellcasters in the land, though that hasn't been going too well for her so far... She only knows one spell (Fireball!) and uses it a bit too often, and thus has been banned from quite a few local restaurants and libraries for causing more than a few fire-hazards... She's bright, peppy, and a bit naïve, but she always tries to look out for those around her and is more than eager to make new friends!

Design-wise, I knew I needed to make sure her ears were poking through her hat! I chose the dark purple / black color as a base because witches are commonly associated with black cats, and the green dots on her limbs and tail are meant to resemble green bubbles rising from a witch's cauldron.

Anyways, I hope you all like my cat! <3

The backstory behind Myrtle makes me love her design even more! I'm sure she'll pick up new spells in no time ♡
Also having her ears poke through her hat was a GREAT decision 10/10.

i don't post outside of oekaki often anymore but i wanted to pop in!

i've been actively collecting GH litters since they came out and this year is no different :] i really liked the kitties this year!! maybe not my favourite palette we've had but i love what you all did with it! i think my favourite is tied between lucky's and wobbuffets <3 (i too also really liked goop cat) looking forward to seeing swishy & broken's one grown!

Just wanted to pop in and say well done to all the GHs! I loved all your cats so much, it was fun seeing them grow up! (:

Aurora's is probably my favourite - really loved hearing about your Australian influences as an Aussie myself!

Ooo! I thought there were little insect wings hidden under that blanket, the feathery ones are a lovely surprise!
Also loving the hairstyle~

Thanks for the hype you guys !! I really did a self indulgent design this time around and ended up super happy with the outcome! They don't necessarily have a name, as none of my past out comes have either, unfortunately ;w;

I was a little worried about giving out too many hints as I thought it would be fairly obvious which one is mine once it grew tbh. TwT
The ones I did give were hidden in transparent text, found by Catmother <3 and that bit I hid in this chat !
Looking at my gallery there are a lot of Stars cats with fur edits and I even drew some pretty similar wings on my Keldine MYO on the 1st! The litters I posted before the start of the month had a number of kittens hidden under blankets too, which my friend Chime pointed out as soon as he saw the outcome (and totally told the whole Stars server that it was mine, hardly batting an eye).

I also included another heart in the grown version of the kitty because.. well I couldn't stop myself. Maybe one year I'll have a kitty without a heart somewhere yall, but not this one :sob:
When we all voted on the baby kitten for this year I made a mad dash for Oddity's DMs to see if I could steal the blanket on my lil guy! I wanted the wings to be a fun surprise and splash of color ^w^
I'm glad everyone seems to enjoy them just as much as I do !!

If anyone has any questions about my kitty, creative process, or anything else feel free to ask <3
