I was inactive for a few years, and came back to find some really cool new pets. The Basil and Kaala being my favorites.

I made JAC9229 to be a sort of joke/tribute to my husband because he loves cats. The Kaala is the perfect pet to represent that, and easier to get than a chibs. I like the fluffy look better anyway.
The name is my husbands initials, birth year, month, and date.
I am also going to make this pet my "smart" pet, because my husband is a nerd and a self proclaimed pacifist. So JAC9229 is getting all my attention as far as education is concerned, and I will not be using him for battle. I will probably try to get him a job as a scientist, or something. In addition, he will be very musical as well, because my husband plays pretty much anything he can get his hands on, but prefers the bass.
Final goals include several cat-like minipets for him, and eventually, a more interesting color. Though for now, I like the orange.

So there we go, an excuse to drag my husband into marapets. haha.
