#alongside the vanilla or to replace it idk yet

[kedreeva]

I'm so in love with them

[princeanxious]

Oh!! Btw, idk if im gonna make this a thing but I wanna ramble about our twin kitties and the things we've learned since we got them:

Vanilla, our big baby: he does a play, but only if it's mostly low-ish effort play, unless its the misterious red dot, he will only run for the misterious red dot. Big on pets and scritches, will let himself be carried but doesnt care for it much(especially when he is being carried away from getting into things like trying to explore behind the refridgerator), not so much into cuddles unless you have the really somft blanket, then will sleep for hours on your lap. Lazy boi, yet still v curious and easily spooked. Not much of a problem child, just living his low energy life. Soft purrs, v sweet even of more aloof than anything. Tries to be dignified, but doesnt care too much.

Cherry, our smol baby: like, okay, i love her dearly, but the world has decided that Cherry is smol and compact with a lot of chaotic cat energy, pure endless kitten energy, will chase the misterious red dot for over an hour with breaks, if it moves or wiggles it is a toy and she will hunt and capture and play with it. Not big on pets, but doesnt mind being held much and will come and curl up on your chest if yer laying down and purr up a storm, she purrs Loudly, the power of god resides in her tiny chest and she thusly feels no fear for anything. Her brother blinked a kiss at her and she responded with puffing up and jumping sideways at him in an act of play, tripped, and hopped up onto the nearest window sill. Dignity? Whats that? Will hop and climb up onto things even if it takes an effort because she will not be slowed by the gorce of gravity on her tiny body. Wants to try everything, ive had many periods of time where she wants to do something, and I endstead patiently blockade her face with my hand or legs until she loses interest, as continuously moving and replacing your hand will only make her think she just needs to wait till your done to do what she wants. (Twice this morning she decided that my cheerios were more important than staring out the window simply because they make the clinky sound in the bowl)

They both get along pretty well, and play alot(well, cherry tries to play, its a 50/50 split on whether or not her brother will play or simply try to sit on her to get her to chill xD) and I am delighted to have them 💓💞💕💖💗💓

Now we've just gotta acquire some more things for Cherry and Vanilla to entertain themselves with alongside the active play, because playing with both of them for half an hour at least twice a day is not enough to keep cherry occupied enough to stay out of trouble ^^;

also what mods do u use for minecraft,, i wanna get some but idk what to do i just want more cute animals and plants and pretty things

also i use my laptop which can’t cope w too much lol

YESSS ANIMALS AND PLANTS AND PRETTY THINGS IS LIKE MY MAIN PURPOSE W MODS ok heres a list w links and brief descriptions so u kinda know whats going on <3 ill kind of categorise them too... 

some laptops seem way better than others at handling mods but i would say just pick and choose ur absolute favorites and if thats too much for it then take one out until its more manageable! my laptop handled mods very well but i dont think i had THIS many on it hadflkjghdfkjlghndklfjhg

under a readmore bc idk how long this will get LOL

animals:

ice and fire adds dragons and TONS of like fantasy animals and some scary mobs too!!! u can tame most of the animals and theyre all very unique and SUPER cool! u can ride some of them, theyll fight for u, etc... its very configurable like u can change spawn rates and stuff, i personally turned dragons WAY down so theyre very rare to come across, bc they kill u like instantly and also cause a ton of lag if theres a lot at once, and theyre default spawn rates are ummm too high lol. but yah this is one of the best mods i think ever probably...i love it sm its like a classic

better animal models makes vanilla animals look cuter and better and better animals plus (by the same ppl) adds a bunch of other animals that are rly cute! a lot of them are tameable and theyre very well thought out

genetic animals adds a bunch of dif breeds + colors and new breeding and feeding mechanics to farm animals, its kind of new but very well done but i really really love it! if you use it in conjuncture with better animal models, it replaces to vanilla farm animals but not the wolves and foxes and stuff, so they work very well together. also the chicken babies are like incredibly teeny tiny and adorable. and it lets you be able to ride llamas and cows with saddles and bridles... i could go on (this mod is what i use in place of animania, my favorite mod ever, but that one hasnt updated past 1.12)

alexs mobs also just adds a bunch of new animals, almost all of these are tameable and very unique, i LOVE that it adds crows lol you can also ride some of these animals once u tame them... u can also configure spawn rates for these if theres ones you dont want or want more of, etc. they update pretty often with new animals as well

realistic horse genetics is a super well done mod that makes horses come in wayyyyy more colors, it also has them come in different sizes and stuff...basically what it says in the name but its like. INCREDIBLY well done i couldnt live without it lol

exotic birds adds a ton of pretty birds! it also adds a rare phoenix you can obtain and tame, and ride, which is cool! you can keep birds in birdcages breed them and incubate eggs and all kinds of stuff

making stuff pretty:

biomes o plenty is super popular and really awesome, adds a tonnnn of new biomes with their own trees and wood types and plants and stuff! theres also some cool rare biomes (this mod also works well with all the animal mods); and some other biome mods i kinda cycle between are terraforged (also makes terrain generate better, smoother and stuff and super configurable! this works alongside mods that add biomes) and traverse is good too

macaws roofs, doors, windows, furniture, fences, etc are good for making ur houses pretty! i havent done much w this yet bc i havent built a house since i got it, but it looks really nice

diagonal fences does what it says on the can its suuper convenient and i like it a lot since i make a lot of animal pastures hehe... and it works with custom fences (so if you have macaws fences it will work for those too!)

fairy lights adds paper lanterns and string lights which look way better than torches! also lets u make flag banners and stuff

falling tree lets you chop a tree down in 1 swoop, and automatically destroys the floating leaves so u dont have floating trees and stuff everywhere...might seem cheaty but i like it lol (i also use this in place of dynamic trees, which makes trees BEAUTIFUL but, again, hasnt updated past 1.12)

i also use the unity resource pack (i like this one bc it makes colors more coordinated and muted! my ocd lollll i also like mizunos of courseee) and sildurs vibrant shaders (sildurs is pretty graphics intensive but the lite or medium versions are less so! there are also less intense shaders out there, this is just the one i use)... for shaders to work u need optifine (which also adds dynamic lighting! i.e torches will light the way when you hold them without placing them, stuff like that. its also just good to have, it optimises your game better to prevent lag)

SO YEAH LOL those are all the mods i use rn! some of these have dependents you have to download to make them work (like biomes o plenty requires open terrain generator) but they tell u that on the download pages and stuff, just look out for that <3 also most of these mods have wikis if you wanna know how to tame an animal or crafting recipes and stuff like that, i pretty much keep the wikis open whenever im playing lol. idk how much u know abt the like process of installing mods n stuff but if u need help hmu and ill try to help!

(sorry this is SO long btw but i wanted to be thorough and also have this in my minecraft tag in case anyone else is curious lol)
