welcoming my first mewgenics spring!

lots and lots of breeding going on which is no big surprise. here's how it goes for me;

• select breeding stock from a mix of good quality strays and your home bloodline to not yuck up your family tree
  • keep a second breeding room if possible, helps manage comfort and space issues
• look at resulting kittens. mark (☆) kittens with stock potential (high stats, good muts, just kinda cute). also mark (†) kittens with decent, but not excellent, stats. send all below average kits to tink
• send fodder cats (†) out to farm, toss to npcs of your choice once done. stock cats (☆) stay at home to breed with strays and/or each other but can be sent out on adventures once they've had a few kits
• rinse and repeat

something like 3/4ths of each generation gets tossed. it's kinda cutthroat, but i wouldn't do it if it didn't work, and it does! my average kitten looks a lot like the attached pic. it's not perfect but we're getting there :)

beyond that we're making progress toward unlocking the throbbing domain, i've been putting it off for too long. finished gristle quest on the morning of 6/17. first time i tried to do gristle i forgot to put the gristle on. that was a big bummer and i sent those cats home after the alley lol
