Those felines were pets/friends/family of the folk from Mjolnir.

John has Juno (dog).
I've got Sid, Dash, Dot, Rodrick, Black Ops, Scout, Sniper.... but they're all fish.

I don't know about Nicholas or Colin...

I have 2 cats named Dexter and Sinister, if that helps.

One of our cats is name Rico (as in Ricardo Tubbs...). Since I did a Miami Vice mod for the old James Bond RPG it seemed fitting to name a cat after a Vice character. Now we just need two goofy ones (one thin and one fat) for Stan and Larry...

No pets.

Best wishes,
Nicholas

My own personal experience of having cats or dogs sit in on the game is that they're not helpful. Entertaining in their own way, but they don't exactly move the story along.

So if I ever have my name down as author of an RPG, no, Dexter and Sinister are very unlikely to be in the credits. If you are the author of an RPG and you feel like your dog or cat actually earned their place in the credits, then I probably want to meet your pet more than I want to meet you.

My sentiments exactly. What use is putting pet's names in the credits for anything?

Yes, I know, "Bad arakish, bad arakish."

I have no pets per se but a shirt I'm rather fond of.

He is called Crazy Shirt Friday Shirt and i wear him on Crazy Shirt Friday (every Friday is crazy shirt Friday) .

No pets in credits for me, but then I'm not a 'company' where they might be hanging around the office with us... maybe I'd stick them in there to be funny if that were the case.

As an aside I have...
Sophie (Anatolian Shepherd)
Layla (Doberman)
Max (Cocker Spaniel)
Raven (Chiweenie)
Tess (Calico Cat)
Purple (Tabby Cat)

I only have one pet,

Pandora = a lovely black lady cat.

Well now in fairness, while I can't see giving credit to a pet for help in creating the game/supplement/whatever, I can quite easily picture in the credits of almost any RPG product imaginable:

"Special thanks to Pandora, for opening the box."

Cory Magel · « **Reply #11 on:** August 14, 2013, 08:33:07 PM »

That's it... someone needs to make a boxed set called "Pandora".

RandalThor · « **Reply #12 on:** August 14, 2013, 08:48:38 PM »

And it would have all manner of evil-wickedness inside.

I have three cats: Big dog, Boots, & Little Girl, and if you see them, you will know who is who. (And giving pets "credits" is cute, so leave it alone - and get off my lawn!)

You could give your pets credit for

Paper shredding...

I am a volunteer for the ICE Forums and do not own any pets but I do a lot of cat sitting for family when they are gone. Which can be quite a bit as I think this year the total time is approaching 1 month plus.

I hope said kitties appreciate and cuddle up to you, Mr C

Cats are evil

PhillipAEllis · « **Reply #17 on:** August 15, 2013, 04:03:22 AM »

There once was a cat that was evil
compared to a sausage or weevil
or even a cheese
whose odour would please
a stuntman whose surname was Knievel!

markc · « **Reply #18 on:** August 15, 2013, 08:04:58 AM »

I can say that the cats have me well trained, up by 5 am at the latest to feed them, open the windows so they can smell the outside and brush or pet them; then feed them about 5 pm and brush or pet them; then shut the house down where they sleep at 9 pm (if I can) so they can get their nightly cat naps.

You treat them well, Mr C! Pandora just dropped by to get a pat before heading off to sleep (speaking of which, it's 11 pm+ here, and I'm tired, so I'll call it a night....); ciao!

Phillip
