Copied from another thread, because it really is how I got started:
I remember when I sometimes saw a cat curled up asleep in a favorite store, and thought it was just an object there for decor like others that I had seen... but then didn't know where it went when the bed was empty.
I remember when I saw another cat running around at a shopping event. It fascinated me much more than the clothes, and I followed it for a while.
I remember finding my way to the KittyCat store - curious, but worried about the lack of available prims at my house.
I remember rezing this cool free kitty they gave me, but it was oooooooh so tiny. And fast! And... so many prims! Do I need to put the bed out? I read the instructions... where is it's home again?
Hey, where did it go? Where? Where is it?
Oh, there are stats over there... IN the wall. But it's too low... I can't even get to it to see it.
I remember the nice lady from KCs - I don't remember now which one it was, but thanks sooo much! - coming out to my Linden home and teaching me how to turn cam constraints off so I could get it out of the floor, where it was stuck UNDER the wall.
I remember thinking it was too many prims & being scared I'd lose it again... putting my little FireBall away in inventory... and feeling guilty about doing that to my poor kitty.
I remember when my new girl took me over to the SL home of her RL wife, who had both Firestorm kitties running around, and used to breed KittyCats herself. She showed me the low prim modes and told me my Fireball was okay, even in my inventory. I petted her kitties and then got mine out and played with him. He was all grown, and she taught me how to set home and range, and to put him in low prim mode. She told me the market was flooded, not to get addicted, and she had all these boxes in her cattery... wherever that was.
I remember when I found they had KittyCats on the Marketplace and started looking for one that I thought was really cute... smaller than the Fireball (he seemed so big when I cuddled him) and not so orange.
I remember when I found the most adorable KittyCat with a heart-shaped marking on it's face... a Petite Domino IV with the prettiest blue Genesis Water eyes and a Frisky tail. I was looking for a Petite and knew that they usually cost more, but she was only L$199. And she was perfect!
Picture taken in front of the fire in the cabin I now share with the above-mentioned girl. I feel very lucky that she enjoys having my kitties at her/our place. (She even just paid to permapet Precious.) They now have a beautiful home and garden where they can run and play. (And, yes, their ranges are carefully set to keep them out of the fire and water - well, except that the Mega tiger loves the water. :-) I've learned a lot in 4 months!)
HOW DID YOU FIND OUT ABOUT KITTYCATS?
