Pet Design Suggestions (NEW RULE APRIL 20 2022)

[applerats]

I would absolutely love if there was a pet Shima Enaga on CS! They are my favorite type of bird. They would likely work best on the PPS chicken base. For an entire litter, it would fit in with a bunch of other similar small and round-shaped birds, like chickadees, particularly round-shaped warbler and thrush varieties... I would love to see something like this! And I'm sure many other people would too, because who doesn't love tiny circle-shaped birds?

Another fun way one could do something like this is to make a litter that grows into many different birds from Hokkaido, where Shima Enagas are from. It could include the Blakiston's Fish Owl, varieties of eagles, Spectacled Guillemots, the iconic Red-Crowned Cranes, the Japanese Bush Warbler... so many choices!

Sort of a separate suggestion that stems from the last bit, I always thought that it would be amazing if there were more monthly litters that highlight species from certain regions around the world. For example, the last list of birds would be for if there was a "Hokkaido Spotlight" as a monthly litter. I think it would be really cool and a great way to celebrate wildlife from all across the globe! If people appreciate the wildlife from a specific region, they're more likely to appreciate that region's culture as well. It's funny how learning about different kinds of animals makes you a better person! There's already similar concepts done on this site with the different food and cultural items around the world + the Egypt, Wild West, and Jungle events.

Next/future giant realistic cat litter theme idea: Torbies!

Short for tortoiseshell tabbies. They are essentially the same as tortoiseshells and calicos but with tabby/ginger/(white) instead of black/ginger/(white). (And can be dilute too).

Totally not inspired by my newest addition to my little home colony :P
And I don't think we have many, if any, torbies on CS.

I’d love to see more rain-themed pets! Rain imagery, rainy scenery, etc.

i would lovee a cocktail themed litter so much, i think it'd be fine even in the context of CS being a game for kids since we've had alcohol based designs before. let me make a martini based hoard 🙏

i think there are some 2020 chameleons that have done something similar before but i'd love to see a new take on the theme!

I'm sure this has been suggested many times before, but I'd love to see more household lizards! MissionFlight's 2025 [link] gila monster (dragon lines) and collared lizard (chameleon lines) are super cool and I think more lizards as pets would be awesome!

I'd love to see bearded dragons, long-tailed lizards, anoles, tegus, iguanas, geckos (leopard, crested, day, tokay), monitors, and blue-tongued skinks for example!

I think turtles and tortoises would be a cool addition for reptiles, too! I'm thinking household species like red-eared sliders, box turtles, painted turtles, softshells, and tortoises like Hermann's or Russian tortoise! Imagine a little turtle but on the Syrian hamster lines...

Golden retrievers. They have such an array from almost white to deep red, and such lovely golds in between. One or two with the white face, or sugar lips would be <3333
