    Small update - AquilaFuga has stepped down and I have taken over the thread. We also have two new thread mods to help out! Eagle's Eye and Schuyler <3

    Hopefully we will be able to keep this updated more often!

Thread Update

The following adopters have been accepted and will be added onto the list:


The following newbies have been assigned the following adopters:


Newbies, your adopter will be messaged shortly to notify them that they have been assigned to you, and will hopefully be able to answer all your questions. If they don't contact you within around a week, or if you're having other problems such as they're being rude to you, you don't understand their explanations, or anything like that, you can PM one of our thread mods, and we will assign you to a new adopter as soon as we can.

Our mods are;
>>axelandria - Burrito Bunny - Eagle's Eye - Schuyler

In the meantime, I would suggest that you take a little look at the Newbie Guide & Index, if you haven't already. It has some great tips, and could help you while you wait for your adopter.

      How did you find Chicken Smoothie?: I was searching (on Google) for things similar to Lioden and DragonCave, or even Marapets. I really like to collect things, however I'm a liiiittle impatient sometimes, which is my only dislike on this site.<3

      What do you like best so far?: All the nice people so far, in the newbie intro place, many people have reached out to me very often and given me scam warnings as well as just straight up free pets-- Also, I LOVE the designs of many pets here, it's all so pretty!

      Any questions?: Will the communication between me and my upcoming Adopter, be through just this site's PrivateMessaging? Or will I need to contact and connect with them through a different social?...
      GirlFlux. when named "Holly", my pronouns are She/Her, When "Stryker" it's He/Him.

      • I love giving name ideas, for free! (especially when naming something in WarriorCats style-)
      • Legit every single pet I name on here WILL be WarriorCats-related.
      • HorrorTale Sans is so babygirl to me
      • i LOVE otters, but specifically the Asian Short-Clawed (River) Otter.
      • ourple is best color (imo) <3
      I love making friends, and am very talkative. Also on here because I kinda get grounded a lot. (ENFP-T personality type.)

      I LOVE YOU PEOPLE SO MUCH BTW, Y'ALL ARE SO NICE!!!<333

      Languages that you are fluent in (besides English): None, though I can speak some other languages conversationally.

      Have you helped anyone before anywhere on CS? If so, please link to the post/s: I like to think so! I have provided advice and support in the support threads like "The Comfort Corner" and "LGBTQ+" threads. I try to offer help and support in pms or where it seems needed. I have received pet and item gifts occasionally as a result of this. I have had a few online friends join CS over the years and I've helped them navigate and get acquainted with the site and site functions. My goal in participating in this program is to help more users, particularly new members who need support. As someone who has been a member of this site for over 10 years now, having grown into an adult and now having a unique position that allows me to be online frequently, I feel I am able to provide support to new users and would love to spend me time doing so. I also helped my first newbie recently.

      Some examples include but are not exclusive to: Link 1 - Link 2

      Why should you be allowed to adopt a newbie?: As an adult member, I consider it part of my responsibility to help create and foster a supportive and inclusive environment here on CS. When I first joined in 2013, I had a hard time navigating the site and learning about everything involved here. From forum and site rules to oekaki, roleplay and forum discussions and games, this is only one aspect of CS. On the other hand, there is trading and rarity systems. There are so many questions! I would love to be a trusted member others, particularly new members can rely on and look to for support here on CS! Offline, I have worked in many support roles for both youth and adults from being an art teacher to a supervisor, I am confident I have had extensive experience in similar roles that would help me be the best support of comfort and assistance to new users. I've since worked with a newbie! I was as helpful and kind as possible and they appreciated all my help. I'm still happy to continue providing them support and help while having new newbies to help!

      How often do you get on CS, and how long are you typically online on these days?: I am on CS throughout the day every day! So I am available the majority of the time. The longest a member might wait for a response is an hour or two unless I am sleeping. I am home the majority of the day and studying for my degree in web design so I am often on the computer.

      Did you read and understand all of the Adopter information?: Yes! I read everything including the FAQ to ensure I understood what was expected of me when applying. I would very much like to participate in this program.

      Do you agree to be helpful and polite to your newbie at all times?: Absolutely! My goal is to provide support and friendship to newbies and I understand how daunting navigating and overwhelming a new website with a lot of information can be. It can be easy to make mistakes or become overwhelmed so I am hoping I can help new members navigate and overcome that!


      Reposting to be added to the list for a new newbie (=
      I've been helping my newbie, answering their questions and providing support but they are not as active so I wouldn't mind helping someone else out as well!


      reposting, i was assigned my third newbie about two weeks ago and reached out but never received response so i would love to be added to the top of the list so i can help someone else out!
