Chatting posts are great, but just "bump" isn't really neccessary. Thanks! 4laugh

  • You may only buy one cait from each flatsale. No, not even if the second is for a friend.

  • You may only ask for one custom slot at a time. Like above, not even if the other slot is for a friend. You may co-own a custom cait though.

  • Resale/Transfer of ownership of Cait owned is not allowed, unless discussed with and approved by me.

  • You are not to harass owners of Cait for any reason, neither in public nor private. Users found doing this will be banned from any involvment in the Cait.

  • You may only keep one cit from your litter (one for each parent's owner), the rest must be given new homes.

  • You may co-own, but only between two people.

  • You must be capable of hosting your own images. I will only host images for the duration of their growth. After that, it is up to you to host them yourselves.

  • I reserve the right to refuse sale to offending parties. I also reserve the right to remove ownership of rules breakers with no obligation of refund. You break the rules bad enough to make me take your Cait away, then what you paid for it is your tough luck, buddy.

  • There is no obligation of refund should you decide to return or disown your Cait for some reason. However, if there is a particular situation, merely discuss it with me and we will see if a refund is possible.

The History of the Cait:

The Cait were once a small numbered and seldom noticed race of furries. They're small stature and shy, secretive nature kept them from the public's notice. They were not unhappy, but at the same time longed for something more than their everyday flitting about.
One day, a clueless little gaian fox (that's me!! blaugh ) stumbled upon them.....literally. She tripped right over a little peach colored cait whom, after a bit of apologizing and shocked silence at the site of the little winged furball in front of her, the gaian learned was named Kiteko. A friendship was struck, and all was happy and good.
Rain, the gaian in question, came to know more of the Cait, spending many days exploring their Hidden Thickette. She found another friend in the much more solemn little Cait named Aisling, and decided that she would take them both out into the world of Gaia, and show them the more "out in the open" sights.
Upon seeing the street affectionatly known by many Gaians as "The Breedables/Changing place", they were in awe. The long road littered with booth after booth who's sole purpous was to unit a unique animal with the perfect gaian seemed like the perfect place to help lonely, bored, or adventurous Cait to be coupled with Gaians who could help enrich their lives. It was brilliant, and they would elect Rain as the C.E.O of the operation. She even adopted two more Cait, herself. Keelin and Eirin.
This story is getting too long....
I'm going to speed through the rest xd
So Rain built the Cait their own little booth from which business would happen. And it was good. The Gaian's responce to the Cait was very good, and many Gaians wanted to take one home. But the work load became too much for one little gaian fox to handle all on her own, and Rain became weary of all work and no play. There was also the little matter of her having to go *poof* for an unknown amount of time. And so the Cait booth was closed, and there much wailing and gnashing of teeth. sad

...BUT....

Rain returned from her poofage, and decided that the Cait were not reaching their full potential as had been planned, and so she tore down the old booth, and built ye up a new one. Better than before. And now there was much rejoicing and leaping from the ground! For the Cait now had a new breath of energy, and also (rather strangly and completely with no scientific reasoning) a new look about them. And Rain went to work at making wonderful things for the Cait's own amusment. She sowed little clothes, built little beds, stuffed little plushies, and scowered the Gaian forests for little animals to keep the Cait company.
And although the new booth is currently undergoing renovations and so is not open, the Cait are eagerly awaiting the day when they get to go home with thier new Gaian companions.

There....that sickeningly sweet enough for you?? domokun

New Chapter

After a while, Rain decided to share ownership, so that more could get done in the shop. DDB accepted, and it was good. And never was there such frolicing and dancing and throwing of muffins.

NEW new Chapter

A horrible disaster swept o're all of Gaia, and one by one, Cait shops where eatin up by the earth itself, and new shops were rebuilt. Here's to hoping that this is the LAST creaky little shack that we will have to make. Huzzah!

Q. I need one! I desire one! My every bone aches for one! How do I make this pain go away? crying
A. See a doctor, Caits don't cause physical aching. xd Other known methods to relieve this pain include checking the 'Sales' post for announcements of flatsales, auctions, raffles and contests.

Q. How much do they cost?
A. In a flatsale, the cost is 5k.

Q. If I PM you, will you sneak me one under the table?
A. Um.....no. sweatdrop Sorry, but just like everyone else, you have to tough it out here and prove your metal. arhargh.

Q. Will you do customs? I wouldn't mind havin one o' them. wink
A. Customs are available when DDB or Rain say they are acepting orders for them (ie they have open slots). See the 'Sales' Post for more information.
  • "All stage" Customs can have wings (noncustom), Familiars (noncustom), and 3 clothing items (none custom) of their choice (halo excluded). Cost is 400k
  • "Single Stage" Customs are just like normal customs except they're already adults (or pernament cits or children). You can upgrade these kinds of custom caits (if they were originally in the child or cit stage) by paying the 200k difference. Cost is 200k
  • Uber Customs (custom everything) are the rarest of the Cait turnouts, and will probably not happen more than once a year. And Rain must really love you or owe you for one of these puppies.... or you save her life or something.

Q. Do you do pet trades at all?
A. I'll trade a Tora, Teashop Puppy or Star Chaser (for a normal cait). Or a Pokeboy for a custom cait or lionback cait. Or a unique lineart cait for a 707 Error Pokemon from Saibraeus (I adore your artwork!)

Please contact me if you are the owner of the store. If you are a colourist or someone with a new litter to offer, please also provide permission from the store's owner to do the trade too.

Q. How long do they take to grow?
A. All depends on what Rain and DDB have happening in rl. As much as they'd like to, they can't colour caits all day sad Usually though it takes a couple of months for each stage. This gives you time to rp with them at each age and to enjoy the cuteness! Don't worry though, however long it takes we won't forget to grow your cait.

Q. Can I be on staff?!?!?
A. Sorry, I have all of the help that I need. I'll announce if anything becomes available though.

Q. Is there roleplaying here? What gives??
A. Yes. The new Cait and the old Cait blend happily together at the Hidden Thickette ^_^ Rp is not a requirement though.

Q. Ok, all of the CaitSíne look the same!! How am I supposed to tell if mine's male or female, has wings or not?!?
A. I will tell you when I sell a Cait what gender it is, and if it has any special aspects.

Q. Can I be a guest colorist?
A. Sorry, but DDB doesn't like to give out Rain's art to people we haven't known for ages. Please don't take it personally. sweatdrop

Q. Give me Cait now. I'm too lazy to read all of this junk!
A. I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request. Means "no". Read, you lazy bum!

You can personalize your Cait by getting them a background to suit them.
Tha Rules: You are able to change your background after your initial purchase, HOWEVER, if you remove a background, you do not get your gold back if you paid for the background which is being removed. You also must pay the required cost of the new background.

Breeding

Yes! DDB has decided to try her hand at getting the breeding happening again. Little baby cits are just too cute to resist! Plus she knows how much fun it to create little families and rp parents/young and new budding love!

However there were some problems with how the original breeding was run before, which led to it being stopped. So there will be some changes with how it is run now.


When and How?
So she still has time to put on flatsales, auctions, contests and other activities, breeding will only happen occasionally. Sometime during each month (rl events and problems pending), one slot will open for a pair of cait to breed and have a litter of their very own.

Who gets this slot and how will vary each month, depending on the alignment of the planets, whether the salmon are running and what DDB feels like doing at the time. xd It could be a contest, a raffle or even a nomination process!


Cit Information
Caits are able to have litters of between 3 and 5 cits in size.
Once the parents are announced, DDB will create a post with a random number selection between these two amounts to see how many will be in that litter. The cost of breeding your caits will be 6k per cit that is being born.
Once the cits are born, she will pm the parent's owners and they can decide what they would like to do with them.


What can you do with the cits?
Well you can keep them, so long as you don't go over your limit of 5 caits per person. Or you can give them away to friends.

They cannot be resold, auctioned off, or used in pet trades. However if you wish to raffle them off (for free), you can so long as you ask DDB first. She'll make the second post in your raffle thread so people know it's all legit. wink Then you may continue to host it yourself.


Breeding Rules
  • Caits must be in their adult stage to be able to breed.
  • Caits are only able to breed twice.
  • Winners of a breeding slot may not participate in the next two breeding slot events.
  • Parents can only keep one cit each (if there are enough). The rest must be given away.
  • People are not allowed to harrass the winners of a slot for one of their cits.
  • Winged cits may appear rarely and randomly in litters but are more common when one or both parents are also winged.
  • Special caits (ie Lionback, Grunny and Space ones) are able to breed but their litters will be smaller. Only 1-3 cits and probably only one will inherit the rare traits.

Rain's Pet Trades are Closed!(unless you are on the list of pets i'm really interested in)
I'm not currently taking any more pet trades. heart
Please read entirely through this post. Thank you.
I don't like RP intensive pets. I haven't the free time for them. And I'm a bit picky with what I want, I look for particular things, so if I decline, please don't take it as a personal insult. I just don't want to have 30 pets that I can't take care of. crying
To ensure that your PM offer stays in my inbox for more than 20 minutes, please send your pet trade offer PMs to Kitwe (my rarely used second account), and I will log in there once every few days to check for PMs.

What to send:
- A link to your pet thread.
- Preferably a brief example of how your pets work.
- Sample images are nice, too wink

What Rain Likes:
- Foxes, Felines, Furries, Unique
- Dark, morbid, spooky, etc types
- Insanely cute types
- Killer line work and/or coloring

What Rain Dislikes:
- Required RP
- Required "checking into the thread" often
- Pets that can die (unless they are undead type pets XD)

Pets that Rain already takes a fancy to:
I haven't done much research on these. If they are RP intensive, then I can only accept if the shop owners would be willing to make an acception in my case. sad

- MoKat
- Aduthule
- TPC
- Feli (wild *drool*)
- Sion
- Mouse-Ling
- Notion
- Pocket Pygmy

Extra stuff:
- I offer an even trade, if a pet trade is agreed. A custom for a custom, a premade for a premade. And so on.
- Shop owners can also trade for Cait for thier friends. heart The shop owner must make the proposal, though.
- Just another reminder, If I delcine.....please please please please please don't take it as an offense. I simply don't want to do too many pet trades, and I don't want to have one of each type of pet imaginable, and so I am going to harshly limit the amount of pets that I trade for.
-Also, because I am horrid at flatsales and such, if you get a pet that is on my want list in a flatsale, and the owner of said thread allows it, you can give me the pet and get yourself a premade Cait (Premade means not custom, but I may be open to "suggestions" on what you type of Cait you want).

Pets that I've traded for:
2 Squeekats
2 Sun Children
1 Brannon
1 Kitsusagi
1 Tamashii
1 Bear of Spirit
