Just in time for the holidays, KittyCatS! is proud to present our 2011 Winter Collection: “Rain Dears”, “Ice Babies” and “The Royals of WinterLand”!

Chilly, Bright, Shimmering & Light…. Ice Babies!!!

Creating the Ice Babies was a bit of a challenge, how does one make a cat of ice that will warm your heart? Well, with a whole lot of love :)
Each Ice Baby is almost like an ice sculpture. You will see in the textures all the properites of real ice, little cracks, reflections and of course, light reflecting and illuminating! They come in 5 Winter Shades for your enjoyment. Sold randomly.

KittyCatS! Update V1.12
~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~

Hello to our AMAZING KittyCatS Owners Old and NEW!!!!

This update contains a feature we’ve wanted since DAY ONE!!! We’re so excited to see it become a REALITY :-)

Now more than ever before you will be able to customize your KittyCatS! to fit your style and tastes… and it’s just the start! Kitty Couture has arrived!
(well part one…., hee hee) <— what could that mean?!

Once again, as always, we want to thank you for being a part of our community. Your contributions help make up our awesome community and really add to the KittyCatS! experience.

So… here are the highlights, additions, changes and fixes included in this update.
Anything marked with a " * " has been present in version 1.11 , which was released for the Halloween & Collabor88 Cats, but not for regular KittyCatS.

Enjoy & Thank you!

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)

~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~

HIGHLIGHTS

Introducing: KittyCatS! Couture – KittyHats! (wearable hats)

“The Hat on the Cat!”

(available now in our showroom)

Yes!!! You read right, we are so excited to present our very first Hat Collection that YOUR KittyCatS can wear! Each of these Hats come with a matching collar as an introductory “gift with purchase” special. The collar can be used to match OR, of course you can use the hats with any collars to create your own look that suits your style. We hope you love this feature as much as we do.

The hat adds one prim to your cats… but with such cuteness, we think it’s worth it :)

Note: Hats on Cats do work with the “Less is More” prim saving mode, but add a prim there too.

Introducing: Lazy Cat Animations

We’ve added some fun new ‘Lazy” animations where your cat lays around and does cat things like stretching, licking it’s leg, and other stuff… the animations are random, and are really cute, so now when your cats have the Sit&Lay option enabled they will also lay more and do cute things. :)

Introducing: Streeeeeeeeetchhhhhh! – Standing Cat Stretch

We added a new cute stretch for when your cat is in the walking mode… you’ll just have to watch to see :)

OTHER ADDITIONS

– The pose menu now contains a total of 9 poses! We added a cute ball holding pose, a new lay pose as well as a funny stand pose for more decorating fun!
(NOTE: it can take up to half a minute for the ball to disappear when the cat is moved or the pose turned off. Also, particles must be turned on to see the ball.)
– Once a box starts to Unpack, the “Unpack” button is replaced with a “Stop Unpack” button to allow you to reverse any accidental clicks or mind changes :-)
– To avoid confusion for less experienced Box menu users with this addition, the Menu will not re-appear on its own after clicking “Unpack”.

for KittyCatS HUD Owners:
– New sorting feature: Sort by partnered cats! Couples are shown side by side, in alternating color.
(NOTE: this feature will only work optimal if both cats of the couple are present, and this for all couples)
– When sorting on love, cats which have their love turned off (? Off) will be grouped in front of the list.
– When sorting on love, cats which are at 100% love and have all stats ready to breed (?? 100%) are grouped together at the back of the list.

CHANGES

– Cats older then 120 days will now have a higher happiness! :) (it’s not so bad getting old)
– A “Loading, do NOT take me in inventory right now!” warning will appear on cats which fail to contact our database when born/updated/switched prim mode or when a collar or hat is applied. *
– Cats in low prim mode will randomly show their tongues. *
– Cats in pose mode will randomly show their tongues.

FIXES

Boxes:
– The updater will now update all cats & boxes when over 700 boxes are present.

Cats:
– The legs & body of your cats will now always look right and not transform into “donuts”. *
– The heads & tail will always properly attach to the body. *
– Cats which are switched to low prim mode or back will not develop an occasional wrong “Copy-Delete me” warning. *
– Attached cats can not be switched to low prim mode anymore. *
– Perma-Pets™ will have their hover text at the correct place when switched to low prim mode. *
– The Magic Broom (KittyCatS Fly option, not included in all cats) will now always properly work with 3rd party flight assists when not using the internal flight assist.
– Fix for a possible script “math” error in Walk&Run Script.
– The “|” symbol will no longer be accepted as a valid character for box & cat names, as this can cause a problem for your KittyCatS HUDs.
Existing names containing the character will not be changed, but we strongly advise to rename such cats.

So…… That’s all folks! Thank you once again for your continued support, feedback and enthusiasm!

You’re the BEST!

~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~
HOW TO UPDATE
~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~`*~

In the coming 24 hours your cats will start to show an “UPDATE ME” tag.
As soon as they do, the UPDATE button will be available in your cats menu to obtain an updater.
As of that point, you have 2 weeks to update your cats.
Make sure you have at least 30 prims available when you run the updater.

EASY AS 1,2,3 updating steps:

1. Click the “UPDATE” button in the menu of your cat and it will give you an updater.
2. Rez the Updater
3. Click the “can of Update” and watch it as it updates all your cats and boxes! The updater will give KittyCatS HUD owners a new HUD as well.

No need to move cats, re rez them, group them, travel to sandboxes, pull your hair, or anything! It’s REALLY that easy. :) yay!
All settings for your cat will be kept, including the group. Only if you had a cat or box for sale, you will have to put them for sale again…
