I love it! I think the original breeds are way cool and can't wait to see what else KittyCatS has up their sleeves as far as exploring the animal kingdom and incorporating it into our beloved breeds.

(And grr, hoping that we can get page 21 back, it seems to have disappeared!)

Updated both charts to reflect the discovery of the Crystal Dream eye!

normally i think it takes years for a new breed to be recognized in RL... not sure how long depends on the type but over 20 years so maybe one day there will be a Foxie breed LOL and we can say... we saw it in KittyCatS first!! LOL...

oh btw. speaking of odd RL breeds, check out the Le Perm breed LOL... fascinating story too!

That's so cool Callie!! I know several of us fell in love with the panda look of the Blue-Bound Mummy as seen in the suggestions forum and are overjoyed to have it now as a breedable fur, with brown markings at that! After you introduce a new breed or fur, I always try to find a RL reference that you might have used to create the KittyCatS version of that fur and I can only imagine the references used for the Foxies and Pandies, they must have been super cute!

And I adore the stories behind the different RL cat breeds and LaPerm is definitely an interesting one along with the Ragdoll 'discoverer' who claims the government did some secret, crazy experiments on her injured cat behind her back to initially give it the signature ragdoll temperament, LOL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ragdoll#History The great thing about KittyCatS is not only is it a wonderful breedable with accurate aesthetic in SL but can branch out to spark RL interest in cats, becoming curious about the very kitties you're breeding and reading up on the stories behind their RL breed counterparts.

It was a light-hearted comment, almost a joke. No need to explain or anything else.
