KittyCatS! Update V1.08
**************
Hello KittyCatS! Owners!
Happy Summer again! Another update??? Oh why oh why??? Well… because we had a few little things we wanted to share with you! Some surprises some you will find out now and some later… also we got rid of a few little fleas :).
NOTE: If this is your first time doing an update with KittyCatS! the process is very simple. Yes, you heard right, VERY simple. (At the bottom of this note are the simple steps on how to update)
Alrighty then… here are the highlights, additions, changes and fixes included in this update.
* HIGHLIGHTS *
* Introducing: Fancy CatS! & KittyCatS! Jewels
KittyCatS! proudly introduces KittyCatS! Jewels & Fancy CatS!. At very random times, your cats will gift you with a rare gemstone… (you will have to wait and see what they are) when you get them you can collect them and when you get the amount needed they will give you a Fancy Cat! Our Fancies will be very special cats that will range from variations on different breed colors ONLY available thru being a “Fancy”! Also… the KittyCatS! Jewels can be traded or sold for those of you who have more than you need. We hope this is fun for you!
* Introducing: Whiskers Whiskers Whiskers!
We’re really excited about adding the new whisker traits! It’s been something we’ve wanted to do for quite some time!
As of now the “default” whiskers are called Silver for color and “Guitar” Shape. Funny shape name huh?
As a little bonus we added a different hidden trait in the update (the same for all) which basically means YOUR CATS CAN HAVE OFFSPRING WITH A DIFFERENT SHAPED/COLORED WHISKER as SOON as you breed them! You won’t have to wait for your new babies to grow for this trait to show up! Even more new Whiskers to discover can be found in the new starters! Enjoy!
* ADDITIONS *
* Fully configurable On/Off floating text settings for your boxes! Including all traits, box name and size.
Time to give a more focused and pleasant oversight in your stores!
* Left Shoulder and Cuddle attachment positions are now restored when manually adjusted, reset on owner change, kept on update. So no more readjusting
* For KittyCatS HUD owners: HUD display increased from 240 to 275 KittyCatS!
* CHANGES *
* KittyCatS will not walk for 4 minutes after been sent home or teleported to you with the KittyCatS HUD.
* FIXES *
Boxes:
* Identical twins will no longer show as non identical after an update, for boxes born after this update.
* Box rotation will now be kept after an update… Yes, less work for you 😉
Cats:
* Cats will not listen anymore for a new name, partner or range if other buttons got pressed meanwhile in the menu.
(also fixes the problem where a cat for which a partner attempt was initiated , but not finished yet, messed up the partnering that was set from an other cat in the meantime).
* possible fix for some cats ending up with a disproportional head for a short time (Yes, we need your help here, keep reporting the problem if it still occurs!)
* “I love you, avi_name” will now only say the first name.
* Cats which have ” Walk & Run” and “Sit & Lay ” disabled will no longer do funny moves with their head… Oops!
HUD
* Perma-Pets will now also sort on gender.
* Cats will now also sort properly on sleeping when their name contains a symbol.
* Slider texture will now display correct with 50+ cats.
* HUD counter will now show 1-5 instead of 0-5 when 5 or less cats present.
* HUD will show the tool icons when exact 5 KittyCatS are found.
* Coming Soon! *
* Next week : update of the pedigree site to reflect whiskers as well as an overview of your Jewels & some minor adjustments
Also next week… “Scratch and sniff???” NOOOOO it’s SL we can’t smell, how about… Scratch & Climb???
You will find a new fun way to watch your KittyCatS scamper about and well… you will have to wait and see it
So be looking for that next week in the store! Your KittyCatS can’t wait to show off for you 😛
So…… That sums up this update! Again, thank you for your continued support, feedback and enthusiasm!
You’re the BEST!

We’ve been paying attention to your feedback and heard your cries of help and we’re pleased to announce two new products now available in our store – Happy Vitamins and Love Drops!
Happy Vitamins are a one-time use vitamin that provides a temporary boost to your cats Happiness for a period of 5 hours! Happiness Vitamins come in both 5% and 10% versions and are available in the Vitamin section in the back of the main store.
Love Drops are a one-time use item that instantly boosts your cat’s Love by 1%. That’s right – no more agonizing over that last 1%! Love Drops can only be used on cats at 99% Love, even if the cat is already on a Love Vitamin cooldown (using a Love Drop will trigger a Love Vitamin cooldown however!) Love Drops come in Singles, 5 Packs and 10 Packs and are also available in the Vitamins section of our main store.
We hope you enjoy using these new products as much as we enjoyed making them!

Our new Pedigree site is almost ready for release, so in preparation for that we’re making some changes to the way our customers log in to the forums and the support site.
We’re going to integrate all logins to one username and password. This will be used to login to a portal from which you can access the forums, support site, and pedigree site. Your new login will be your SL name.
Prior to this integration we’re giving customers a chance to keep their current forums settings by ensuring that you are registered on the forums under your SL name. Additionally, if you want your support account history to merge into the new login, please make sure you are using the same email for the new registration as you used for the support site.
If you are not registered on the forums or support system under your SL name, and you need to have it changed, you need to let us know by Tuesday, June 15 either via the support system, a reply to this thread, or a message to Equinox Pinion inworld. If you need to change your forums account name to your SL name, be sure to specifiy what your actual SL avatar name is, the email address you used to register, as well as your current forums and support account names.
After Tuesday, June 15 we’ll begin integration of the new system by sending out a prim to everyone to click to register their avatar key/SL name with the new registration system. More information on that will follow at that time.
If you are not registered for either the forums or the support site, a means of registering under the new system will be provided with our next update.
We’re really excited about these changes and hope you are too! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask!
