KittyCats Advent Calendar GIFT from Nailed It!!!

I am proud to aprticipate in this year's KittyCtas Advent Calendar !! Are you wondering how it works? You only need to go to KittyCats main Store or the new themed KittyCats Winter Wonderland sims and click on the calendar to get your gift.

Best thing is they'll stay during the whole December month, so if you are late you can still grab many of the amazing gifts designers from all over the grid have provided for the KittyCats community.

I wanted to make a set of nails with kitties in them but then I realized the great success my previous animal fur set had on the customers and decided to make a special KittyCats Fur set so you can match your nail color with your favourite KittyCat.

At some point I thought that since this is an Advent Calendar I should've made a Christmas themed nail set instead and started working on it. When they both were finished I couldn't just decide which one to choose as gift for the KittyCats community and opted for adding both :)

I would like to thank all the KittyCats staff and particularly my friend Callie Cline for allowing me to be part of this amazing event. I truly think the KittyCats community is absolutely amazing and I love their group chat, so this is my gift in return for everything you all make to make my Second Life better.

Hope you like it !!

Project FUR Japan - KittyCats

I think you all know I am a crazy cat lady already, breeding all my cute KittyCats and not being able to separate from them got me stuck in a house full of kittens I have to cuddle all day long, but as soon as I arrived to the Project FUR Japan sim and I saw was this huge statue of a family of perfect and detailed porcelain cats created by the KittyCats team for this special event I just had to get them.

I actually got two different kittens: One Kibo Neko Hope Cat, the one with red ears and collar,  which is for sale at Project FUR Japan with 100% proceeds being donated to JEARS to help save the lost and hurt animals of the Japanese people and one Yuki Neko Courage Cat, which is the one with yellow ears and collar, for sale at the KittyCats main store and whose proceeds will go towards charity for the Japanese People.

These pretties have special eyes, special collars and they also feature a never before shown Porcelain shade.   Each cat comes with Kitty Kibble for one week and are sold as a single cat with a random gender. I got two boys, if anyone has one girl that want to trade , let me know!

KittyCats or The Story of how I became a crazy cat lady

My Second Life has changed greatly during the last month, and no I didn't get married, don't panic. In Spain we have a saying that would translate as " Do not spit up or it will end up falling on your face" ... ok that wasn't nice ... but it is actually about not saying up loud you will never do something because you will end up doing it real bad.

Since I came back to SL I had profusely rejected doing two things: having a house (not that I did like that before) and breeding pets. I am too lazy to decorate a house, I have always lived in simple skyboxes with many pose-stands and lots of pictures on the walls; and even though I liked those bunnies and horses I found them a waste of money, how can someone have the patience to breed horses in SL? ... There went my spit...

On February I saw a notice at the fashion bloggers group inviting us to the preview of a new breedable pet store opening and well... there I went. Big mistake.... BIG MISTAKE !!! I instantly fell in love with these cute little things, if they were a little bit sweeter I would just die. There I met KittyCats head CSR Kitten Longmeadow who was really patient answering my questions while lots of cute kitties where running, pawing at our feets, sleeping and even chasing butterflies around us. Since I work in quality control IRL customer support is really important to and I have to say I think the KittyCats Team are lucky to have Kitten.

The biggest surprise was when my friend caLLie cLine confessed me she was the artist behind this sweeties fur . Uh oh! that means I have someone to scream at if something goes wrong? I'll buy 15, thanks!!  *giggles* Luckily I have to say I have not bothered Callie so far, and the only time I had an issue (don't purchase things when your inventory is still loading boys and girls, SL loves to eat incoming stuff) Kitten suggested me to fill a ticket at their website and it was solved within hours, just another reason I am so happy with my adorable KittyCats !

So I said to myself, well getting a couple won't hurt, I bought a boy and girl pack that only costed 599L$ and comes with food for 1 week and ran to my skybox to open. But while the little boxes were there jumping on the floor making kitty noises waiting for them to be to born I realized my empty white skybox wasn't appropriate enough for baby kitties to be raised, so I had to go out and find a house for them.  As I said before I am too lazy to decorate myself, but there are designers, like Ravyn Hynes from Mudhoney,  that think on lazy people like me and make fully furnished houses, ready to be rezzed with one click of the mouse.

This beautiful gazebo is  absolutely perfect for me and my kitties. It is full of little details but also had room for all the cute furniture I bought for my adorable new friends. Bizcochito ( little sponge cake) was my first kitty, he is a smokey with meadow curious eyes and his favourite spot is the big lounger, he bathes himself on the cushions and usually sleeps on the big soft blanket.

Magdalena (Cupcake), Bizcochito partner, is a Domino with sunshine curious eyes. She is a true princess and  never sleeps in any other place that her sweet Cottage Cat Basket I found at What Next, she walks over it for minutes long until she decides its perfectly ready for he curves and then takes a cute kitty nap.

But this would't be a true crazy cat lady story if I had just stopped at 2 cats right? I didn't, of course I didn't. One week after store opening KittyCats released their Valentines special edition kitties and, of course, I just had to have one. I got a beautiful purple lady with purple heart eyes, I called her Purpurina (Glitter) and again I couldn't just stop there and found her this handsome Diamond fur and Earth eyes partner who's name is Copito (snowflake). They love to play oh their Banesworth Anubis's cat tree, which is also for sale at KittyCats store.

After some sickness issues (they get so cute when they are sick, sleeping covered by a blanket) and some milk purchase the miracle happened. Magdalena and Copito reached 100% love and had their first baby, and OMG I was extremely lucky, I got one of the most rares, she is a beautiful Bengal Sorell with meadow curious eyes and plush tail and she is my cutieeeeeee!

Bengalita , my precioussssss.

Bengalita felt quite lonely because she had no other kitten to play with so I had to go out and find her a little friend to play with. Blue eyed cutie is another domino, because I just love cats with socks, but with precious blue eyes. He has chosen my lovely grooming station from Kitty Cattery as his favourite place to play all the time, I really think he's trying to tell me something and I would tell that paw gel bottle was full yesterday...uhm...

So this is it, this is the story of how I became a crazy cat lady with a fully decorated house, right on my face.  I am waiting for the next kitten from Magdalena and Bizcochito to get out of the box asI write this so I'm sure you will have news from me soon, and more kitty pictures, of course.

Talk to you soon.

The crazy cat lady!
