New Glow and Shine in BC

We are excited to announce that we will be releasing in the BIG CATS 2 new Glows and 1 new Shine versions.  The new version are Eclipse, Solar and Luster.  With the release of the new versions however we do need to remove current Moonlight and Sunlight and Glisten from the random drop.  They WILL continue to pass.  They have been around for a very long time so we are confident that they will continue to be found in the secondary market.

The new versions will come in at a higher levels than the older versions.  In order to qualify for Eclipse you need to have an offspring resulting at level 50 or higher, Luster is level 60 or higher and Solar at level 65.

Happy Breeding –

Clarification on how this passes – it starts with the random drop and the offspring must be the resulting level or higher.  There was a day we had a small issue where it did pass to levels not correctly. These have been corrected.

Once the animal has either the glow or the shine it passes up or down the levels.

Level only matters when there is no ancestral presence of the trait.

Food Update

I am sure you had heard someone say in group “My foods gone how do I get it back?” We had several helpers and CSRs say MOOG it. This is something we have been trying to track down and while it was impossible to reproduce we do think we found the cause.  The update should prevent a dish from going poof in the future if your sim runs out of URLs.  However you may still get the warning that the sim is out of URLs and it is a good indication that your sim needs a restart.  If you have food out that is an older version this is fine you may leave it as is the food will still be eaten. If however you rerezz said dish it will poof asking you to MOOG a current version.

Current Food version for all but the Happy Teddies in all animals is 2.7.3 in Happy Teddies it is 4.1.1

 

Xanda Lives On

You may have been sadden recently with the report of yet another one of these beautiful creatures being taken from the world. His father was magnificent a while he lived a full 13 years of life his son was not so lucky he lived only a short 6.

Xanda seems to have had a few fights in his time one at age 4 that took a large rip into his nose. Its healed but has left some fairly deep scars.

Xanda Lives On

 

Xanda will be available at the WKU and Crystal River Sims from today until August 9th.

Crystal River – http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Crystal%20River/129/138/40

Xanda’s Mother is never mentioned in any reports so we have created her name is Ekundayo – her fur is simply named Xander’s Mom this is a beautiful near white fur. Her name means sorrow to joy, we choose this in hopes that Xanda living on here in Second Life brings you joy.

Xanda’s Father of course is the Cecil CE that we released back in 2015.

WK C.E. Tiger of 2017

We are really excited to bring you these three new furs. This tiger is a melting pot of goodness. Its background comes from a family line of cats that is all mixed up and united so you have the possibility of having either a Bengal, Amur or the Sumatran pass. This CE and its parents are wearing new furs. The magic does not stop there, they have some really wonderful eyes with a theme of unity. In addition to some brand new ears on this CE tiger, Baby Ear for those of you who want to expand your Baby trait line as well as a Cats Ear.

This cat is available in either Male or Female the choice is yours.

Fact

Can you sell wild dogs that have been trained?

The Answer is YES!  This is part of the design to allow breeders who love to breed find buyers that like to role play and want to have well trained animals with out doing the training.  Just another way that you may be able to set your animals apart from someone else.

Understanding Little Varmint Breeding –

Understanding Little Varmint Ferret Breeding –

Ferret Breeding is a bit different than the other WK Animals – in the sense that the breeding is ancestral base with little random added in. Randomly introduced traits have been reduced and will more likely come from specialty animals.

The various parts of the animal are primarily coming from its background. The more pure you can breed the background to be, the more you can unlock with in that strain.

The almighty LEVEL in the Little Varmint Ferrets is more of a marker for breeders but plays little to no effect on what the animal will bring in. The background of the animal is really much more IMPORTANT then that of its level.

Lets take a look at the various trait workings will use eye color as an example.

If a Female has example
1 Sunrise
1 Merlot
1 Red
2 Wine
1 Neon Blue
1 Midnight

Any of these Eye colors can come out of this animal we are looking at.

If the desire is to pull out the eye color of Wine as it is the strongest in this animal you may want to find a male with similar Wine eyes or more. This will raise the probability of it passing.

You may want to bring out the Neon Blue Eye, you want to look for an animal with more Neon Blues, it will be possible to pull it out, but it will be a lower probability.

What is Strain?

Strain is the color family of the fur. The fur, like the eyes coming primary from the ancestry but there is one big change here.

The more pure the line of furs, the more ability you have to bring in a new fur within that strain. This could be due to the fact that you have a combination that will bring in a new look. For example:
If I have a Champagne Fur with a mask face marking white mitten on its left foot and another mask face marking with no mitten I might be able to move that mitten to the right foot. If I then take the left and right and put them together I can get a full mask face marking white mitten animal.

Whiskers –

Whiskers will come in various colors as time goes on. The first color whisker set that will come in will be in the WOW, Last Litter animal. Yes its a little ways off but that Last Litter Animal will bring in several new things based on its color. More on that in a bit.

Whiskers are animated on the Little Varmints and come in 5 lengths from Tiny, Trim, Medium, Long and Extra Long. The color they currently are is white.

Tails –

Come in 5 sizes Tiny, Small, Medium, Long and Extra Long and are introduced through ancestry of an animal.

Ears –

Come in 8 different shapes Wiggly, Dented, Squared, Saggy, Bitten, Squeezed, Perfect and Flappy. These are also introduced through the ancestry of an animal or specialty animals.

Aura –

Aura is in many colors and will come in via the WOW, last Litter Animal Chance. WK will keep the various colors under wraps at the moment. However, the first one to come in will be Rosey to go with the Cotton Candy themed animal.
Scale –

Scale for Runt and Mini work like the other animals on the second and third litter. Large, Extra Large and Extremes will come in via special releases of Sanctuary animals.

 

Will be adding this to the WK 101 Class under general information.

We’re Ready!!!

WK Little VarmintsWe are ready for adopting.

The Crates we come in are nice but we would like to get out soon as the food is being sold separately to help your Item Page not get cluttered up with so many pet foods.

Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mother’s Day to all.

The MomsLove Eyes will randomly drop today and finish up tomorrow around 8 AM

Due to the total number of TigerMomsLove eye already on the grid we have made a new version of this eye it is TigerMomsLove2 also new this year is the LynxMomsLove.

In addition to the Eyes in honor of the day we have not one but two special bears for you.  One is scaled to that of the Tiny Teddy’s these are real designed for the baby scales the runts and the smaller scales of the existing animals as well as the new Little Varmints. The bigger animals will also use them and don’t dispare they are not a choking danger to them.

The other is our larger teddy these are perfect for the larger scales but are very cute when a small one will grab it too.

These can be found at the either WKU sim or the Crystal River store.
