  • Purrgatory is officially open and like many openings we expect to come across a little bit of scuff here and there, thanks for your patience with us and let us know if you find anything or have questions! Why not drop into the Arrival and Farewells channel to say hi!
  • Don't forget that when you adopt a character you must still go through the process of CHECKING THEM IN just to ensure they still fit the site criteria!

ABOUT THE ADOPTION CENTER

Are you looking to find your OC a sibling, parent, friend, mate etc...? Do you have two cats having kits together and want to find people to play those kits? This board is for doing adoptions for these things! There are a few guidelines below on what is and isn't allowed but overall we allow people to sort and adjust their character's family tree and other relations at their discretion!

When adopting out anything the other player must still CHECK-IN their character before it can be officially made! This is only to ensure the name and appearance doesn't break our loose traditional guidelines! You can read about those details in the TRADITIONAL GUIDELINES thread!



APPLYING TO NEWBORN LITTERS
It is encouraged that parent roleplayers ask a staff member to double check their applicant names/genetics just to make sure nothing steps out of line of what our rules dictate! A litter may have no more than THREE kittens at the maximum, additional kitten slots can be purchased in the shop, as well as litter perks! (More details to come on that once the site shop is functioning.)

Kits adopted from litters may be rehomed at the parents discretion until they become apprentices at which point they belong to the player they are adopted to and can not be rehomed by any means. If a player falls inactive that is unfortunately just part of roleplay, please communicate with your fellow roleplayer on what you'd like done in such circumstances and accept that sometimes people just lose interest in a character or aren't as active as you'd personally like.

We allow people to have their own adopt rules and requirements as well as private 'family' discords, but please keep these all within our rules and guidelines and remember to be kind!

We do not REQUIRE you to use realistic genetics for your litters, but if that is something you want or would enjoy then you may ask one of our hobby Geneticists in the Discord for help on figuring that out! Please keep in mind we do this for fun so they may not be 100% accurate to real life genetics!

PREGNANCY & KITTENS
A cat MUST BE AT THE MINIMUM 12 Moons to have kits! (We would prefer 14 but 12 is the minimal requirement!)
Cats carry their kits for around 63-65 days! (For simple terms in RP we will say 'Two Months!')
A cat capable of carrying kits will show visible signs at about 2-3 weeks! At 4 weeks they should be moving to the nursery and then a month later from that time they'll have their kits! We ask you to not describe the kitting process/birthing in too heavy detail to avoid crossing our rule on graphic content.

Kits are allowed to be timeskipped to 2 Moons and no higher to avoid any strange timeline shenanigans! This will allow players to skip the 'worm' phase where a kitten is just a wriggling little fuzzball unable to speak or do anything of substance!

Kits are apprenticed at 6 moons, at which the parent can have another litter! There is a 6 month cool down between litters to avoid an excess of kits in the clan and so each litter has their own personal bonding time with the parents!

SAME SEX COUPLES & THEIR OPTIONS
Same sex couples have several options if they wish to be parents, we encourage surrogacy plots to help fulfill roles needed for having blood-related kittens! There is also the option of adoption for cats, finding lost litters and coming across abandoned kits or taking in a kitten of a clanmate who passes etc... There are many ways to go about it! Unfortunately we do not allow AMAB cats to 'carry' kits as we still roleplay within the realm of semi-realism when it comes to cat anatomy and reproduction.
We do allow and are happy to have transmasculine characters carry kits and transfeminine ones sire them! This is something trans people do in real life and we have no issue having it translated onto a character! That being said please tag any dysphoric posts relating to these issues with a trigger warning!
