Puppies and kittens?

Um, Wormie? I think it might be time for that birds and bees talk.

Explain the process to me, and I'll see if I can code it. Be as specific as possible.

You know, you are right. For some reason, with that wink he was looking like a randy dog this morning. I wonder if he was posing???

Ok, I think it would have to be single-species only.
I'd hate to see the offspring of a dog-snail. :eel:

I think it would have to be strictly male-female. While I have no problem with gay pets, they won't produce offspring unless we have some sort of fertility clinic for artificial insemination.

It would involve the male "mounting" the female.

I think that the coding would be rather simple.

Nevermind.
If we're going to start breeding animals, could we breed the Hemingway cats--they have thumbs!

Uh huh.

Although being able to anticipate your actions doesn't speak much for the way my mind works, eh?

Lord help me, when I saw this thread pop up this a.m. all I could think of was that Ralph is getting old enough that he's probably needing a little "comfort". Then I started reading.



I do have a question regarding age, however....will our pets die of old age?

Re: Petz Feature Suggestions

Suggestion:

Ability to retrieve petz from the Adoption Center/Kennel before the time is up that we originally set.

If it's possible.

Of course, there will come a time when the parents will fight over custody of the offspring.

Then we can reopen the arena.

Thanks to everyone who thought about Spicey. I was away today, and really busy yesterday, and I just didn't get to him. Thanks so much for playing with him.

Re: Petz Feature Suggestions

A petting zoo No, Wormie, not that kind of petting

I would like to be able to go to one place to see all the petz of EA. If each petz stats could display then it would be easy to know how to play with or who to taunt.

It's difficult to play with the kids now.

I like the petting zoo idea.

But, put them all in one spot together unsupervised and you might not be able to avoid Wormie's Petz breeding plan.
