The Shop Necklace

This is my newest creation: a necklace you can wear that gives out a folder of LMs, NCs, objects, and pictures to anyone who touches it. Plus you get notified when they do.

This is incredibly useful for anyone who owns a shop or hosts events (or even pet breeders!). Often I find myself chatting with someone and they ask me for a LM. I then have to dig through my inventory to find anything relevant to pass along. With the Shop Necklace, you can just tell them to click your necklace!



The Shop Necklace is only 3 prims and carries a very low resource script. It comes in 3 styles: oval, round, and square, and you can customize the pendant with your own texture so you can wear your store logo with style.



You can find the necklace in three locations:

JovianBay Jewelers


Beau Gatto at KittyCats Cafe

Marketplace

CATS!

So it's been a long time since last I posted. But I have a reason for that: I've been knee deep in KittyCats!

It started with looking for a lower prim, better featured pet cat for my mom than what she currently had. My friend Novella is a breeder and had just gotten into the new cats, called KittyCats. So we went to a couple of sims to check them out. Instantly, we loved them.

I have seen, I believe, all of the brands of pets out there and KittyCats have to be some of the best-scripted, low lag, full of personality pets I've seen. You can breed them (and therefore feed them) if you want to but they give you the option to permapet the cats so that you don't have to feed them (and can no longer breed them). They come in all colors and sizes and I am so addicted there's no turning back! If you ever want to see them in action, stop by my cozy little shop, Beau Gatto, in KittyCats Cafe in Rhineland.

Here are just some of my little lovelies. (You can see more pics on my Flickr account.)

Kaylee, my Domino
Zoe and Wash, two of my Cream Tabbies
The Cream Army
Cuddling with Six, my coco with Pink Ice eyes

These cats are great. They rez and chase butterflies and bees, they stick their tongues out, they sleep, you can throw a ball for them to play with, and they can even talk to you...well, sort of ;)

KittyCat breeding isn't for the faint of heart. The market goes up and down and you really need to learn the business well before investing any money in it. But for me at least, it's been a very rewarding month so far. I'm loving every minute of it!
