Welcome to the Carks' adoption center!


Grand Opening Event here!




Carks' Ask.fm



Basic Information;
Carks are an odd species. Developed by a laboratory, Carks were first released into the public as a means of animal-based therapy. Their long, fluffy fur and gentle ways were quick to ease one's troubles, and since an owner doesn't have to worry themselves over feeding or watering the Cark, since no one's quite sure what they eat. Or how, for that matter, since mouths aren't readily visible. Once their therapeutic benefits were made available to the general public, they became a crazed hit. Now found in all homes, Carks are beginning to develop personalities, habits, and even occasionally, mutations.

Carks were developed with the thought of being therapy animals. With this in mind, all Carks were given a gene that made them glow at night like a trusty night-light. Since you're adopting, we thought it fit to provide a picture of both forms of your Cark- Day and Night Phases respectively.

Detailed Cark Guide;

Carks are an odd species. Developed by a laboratory, Carks were first released into the public as a means of animal-based therapy. Their long, fluffy fur and gentle ways were quick to ease one's troubles, and since an owner doesn't have to worry themselves over feeding or watering the Cark, since no one's quite sure what they eat. Or how, for that matter, since mouths aren't readily visible. Once their therapeutic benefits were made available to the general public, they became a crazed hit. Now found in all homes, Carks are beginning to develop personalities, habits, and even occasionally, mutations.

Carks were developed with the thought of being therapy animals. With this in mind, all Carks were given a gene that made them glow at night like a trusty night-light. Since you're adopting, we thought it fit to provide a picture of both forms of your Cark- Day and Night Phases respectively.

We're not sure exactly what Carks even are. Some odd hybrid, or maybe an entirely new strand of recombined DNA. We just don't know. The lab doesn't always provide specifics, although I'm sure we'll learn more as time goes on. We do know, however, that all Carks are different, and seem to possess developing and budding personalities that are influenced by their owner.

Despite having been raised in a lab, these creatures are soft, fuzzy, warm and caring. They love to cuddle with their owners, and rarely, if ever, leave their owner's side. They seem to have an innate ability to sense stress, anxiety or even oncoming health issues. Even more impressive is the fact that they always know the correct treatment for any ailment.

Adult Carks have been recorded to reach up to three feet in length, even though they start off no longer than four inches when hatched from an age. It takes about one month for a Cark to transition between age-stages, so about two months for a newborn to become an adult.

A Cark's glow is the result of bio-luminescence, most likely artificial, but still just as amazing. This glow was intended to soothe a Cark's owner to sleep, or to help navigate during the night. It is perhaps one of the most notable features of a Cark. Another unique feature of a Cark is its 'mask'. These masks have three eye slits on each side of the mask, which appear to lack an eye. Somehow, Cark's can 'see' the world around them perfectly fine, as we have yet to find one that ran into things.

Male and female Carks do differ in appearance. Female Carks have more fur around their necks and masks, while the males always have less fur and are narrower.

A Cark's diet is unknown at this time.

Several mutations have been observed, but that's only what we've heard from the lab, as we haven't seen any ourselves. More to come later.

The Black Market

Here at the Black Market, one may obtain custom Carks. No longer available to the general public, custom Carks are only given out by the lab through special events, most often marked by a holiday or vacation. We're not quite sure when this will ever open, but it will be posted below if it does.

Grand Opening Event;

In support of the grand opening of the general wing of Carks, the lab is allowing for two custom Carks to be made. There don't seem to be any limitations on what you could do if you won a custom a Cark, other then no mutations allowed since those are mutations and as the lab states 'happen randomly and are in no part true science'.



Auction;

With the new wing opening, money has been tight, and the lab is looking for money. They have allowed for mutations to be allowed with this custom, and this custom only.

*You may bid CS pets/C$
*Highest bidder wins, and there will be a 5 minute down period at the end of the time to prevent sniping
*Will end when the raffle ends- 1 PM EST 5/12/14.
