And that's the round up! Here's a few of our favourite silly images from this year, as a treat

Dev Updates

These past few months have really flown by! We won't be sharing all our updates just yet...instead, we'll be revealing 12 new pieces of content leading up to Christmas! Then the studio will be closed for the last week of December for the holidays, and we'll be back next year to share some exciting news.

Now this is looking to be a pretty sweet advent calendar!

Cat of the Month

Of course, we can't forget about the Cat of the Month! This month's cat is...

Charlotte and Starbuck!

Charlotte and Starbuck is sweet little babies belonging to Gen.

Thanks for letting us see your cats Gen! 🐾

Charlotte Likes 💖

String, Starbuck, and hogging treats

Charlotte Dislikes 💔

Shoes, doorbells, low voices, and doors opening

Starbuck Likes 💖

Being pet and using her humans as a bed, drinking water out of the tap

Starbuck Dislikes 💔

Charlotte, being pet without her consent, being ejected from the bed

Fun Fact

Starbuck always responds to the theme song of the wrestler Alberto Del Rio. Whenever we can't find her, we just play it and she arrives

Warm wishes this winter!
