A Few of my Favorite Things | by ECRose
Recently, Reflet@Yabiko made a discovery during their research of .pet files - how to find a pet's favorite colors and flavors! Until now, it could be difficult to determine a pets preferences (unless they are very finicky). With Reflet's research, it is now possible to answer the question with certainty. Bunni@Funfetti put together an excellent tutorial for how to find your pet's favorite colors and flavors using a hex editor. This guide is a valuable resource for understanding the process of translating hex code into a pet's favorites. There are numerous photos and examples to help you learn, it isn't as daunting as it may seem, so be sure to check it out! Another resource for finding this data has been brought to the community by Thor. Thor has utilized Java to code a lightweight utility that will read the pet files in a folder and output their favorites into a handy chart. With this tool, you can efficiently evaluate the preferences of numerous pets and explore patterns among breeds. Speaking of patterns - there have already been some interesting discoveries and theories popping up as folks have begun to collect data. For example, B+W Shorthairs typically like water, and Oshies are very fond of milk. Additionally, some favorites seem to be more common than others. So far, black and white aren't typically listed as favorite colors, while blue and green are among the popular hues. What about bred petz? Current research indicates that bred pets inherit a selection of values from each parent, which means that there can be some very interesting combinations of color and flavor preferences within mixed breeds! Will it be possible to selectively breed for specific combinations of favorites? Can favorites mutate? In time I hope we will be able to answer these questions! Additionally, a pet's favorites can be modified in a hex editor. The altered pet will just need to be run through Reflet's tool "petz byte" to recalculate its checksum after the changes are made. (Be sure to create a backup of your pet first, just to be safe!) |

This discovery reveals another layer of complexity to the game and opens up numerous creative possibilities. Imagine requesting a custom hexie and specifying a favorite color and flavor in addition to other details, or perhaps toys and accessories that are tailored to the preferences of a specific pet! I am thrilled and grateful for the talented members of the community that dedicate themselves to acquiring and sharing their knowledge, and I'm excited to see what else is revealed. Are there dogs with a secret love for catnip? Regal Siamese cats with a lust for the "garbage" flavor? We will have to keep exploring to find out, and I hope you will join the fun!

SHE IS BEAUTY, SHE IS GRACE | by Xoops
During the Whiskerwick Poodle week in March, Bunni @ Funfetti hosted the Miss Poodle Pageant 2022! What a fun and unique contest it was! Entrants were required to provide three specific photos of their female poodle and answer a series of questions by the poodle being entered. The responses of the entrants were clever, fun, and hilarious - I know there were a few that gave me a little chuckle! If you haven't had a chance to check out the contest, go take a read! (https://whiskerwick.boards.net/thread/10869)Voting commenced in April and although all the poodles were wonderful and did a great job, there could of course only be one winner. Finally the votes were in - Phaedra, owned by Rho @ Rhopetz was crowned the winner of the coveted title of Miss Poodle 2022! I had the opportunity to sit down with Phaedra and this is what she had to say about how she felt to win the crown and title, "I just have to think it feels very right and fitting. This title is a mantle of honour and I feel grateful." What a gracious answer from such a gracious poodle. Phaedra hopes to travel the world and go on some play dates in the near future and in the longer-term she says "One thing I would like to see is some of my offspring gaining titles. Keep your eyes open for a litter of my babies soon!" Better keep an eye out, I know I will be! She had a few words to say to the other contestants: "Thank you for your stiff competition; I will admit that at times a golden sweat drop rolled from my brow at seeing the other entries and how glamorous they were." She certainly wasn't wrong - the competition was amazing and the votes, well they were relatively close. She also had a lovely pearl of advice for the rest of the community: "Let's all take a direction from this pageant to keep striving for excellence!" And finally, we ended our interview with some thanks - "I would like to thank Bunni for holding this pageant and hexing my mother, and also, to all the young poodles who look up to me. Thank you to everyone who voted for me in this pageant!" What a beautiful poodle, inside and out!  |
