Forming Flurries
Snowcats are very social creatures and form flurries (packs) to live in. Each pack has at least one male and one female. Two types of flurries are allowed. One type of flurry has mated pairs only. The other type of flurry has all singles, each being able to breed with another. This allows for a bigger diversity of snowcats that can be born. That means different genes and more chances for rare traits to show. Each type of flurry is exceptable. There will be no half mated and half single flurries allowed unless there is written permisson from me. To make flurry pages, there will be NO HEADSHOTS allowed.
Living Conditions
Snowcats live in mountainous areas, cold and snowy. They do not thrive in warm grassland areas but the occasion forest is okay, as long as the climate is cold.
Adaptations
Snowcats are adapted for life in the snow with their heavy set bodies which help them survive during times where food lacks. Large paws make very effective snowshoes. Their fur is reasonably thick but short. Some snowcats have been born with very thick and very long fur. This works just as well in keeping them warm. Most snowcats have horns of some type. They really don't serve a purpose but somewhere in the evolution of the current snowcat, horns must have been used for some reason.
Naming
Snowcats are named with two parts. The first part pertains to the coloring of the snowcat. If you have a green snowcat, you could name it "Emerald" or "Jade" or "Forest". The second part of the name comes from the mannerisms of the snowcat. If the same snowcat likes to hunt and be sneaky, you could name it "EmeraldStalker".
Feeding
Snowcat are meat-eaters. It is a good idea to house them with other meat eaters. Do not place them with any type of equine because this is what they primarily eat in the wild. Training may or may not stop them from hunting equines but it is wise to just keep them away. Most snowcats will hunt small rodents in place of equines so feeding is not a problem.
Breeding
A snowcat litter may have anywhere from 1 to 3 kittens. The kittens will be small, about the side of a adult fist, and will lack any patterning on their fur. They grow quickly, gaining fur markings as they mature. To sign for a breeding, your snowcats must be on a page.
