Animal Napping!

Someone stole all the animals from my home street!  I didn't think this was possible!
10 butterflies, 3 pigs and a chicken!
WTF

  • Only pigs can be taken, but I don't think strangers (non-key-holders) can take your pigs... Wasn't that fixed?

  • Does Potion of Animal Youth work on Not-Your-Street property animals? That's all I can think of on how they did it.

  • :O That jerk....
    Can't they just make their own, or buy some, or just ask? :O

  • Potion of animal youth would have been used - your butler should be able to tell you who visited

  • Oh my butler totally ratted on the visitor...Now I need a pet pitbull to bite petnappers!!

  • I had a pig stolen a few weeks ago but found him, thanks to my botler, Bonnie Bots! Wish this could be fixed.

  • This is despicable.

    The problem I have, however, is the opposite.  People are slowly adding animals.  I need to give a couple away.  Would you like me to deliver some?

  • Isn't buying/making Animal Youth Potion is more expensive than buying/making eggs/animals?

  • people are welcome to my animals, I need to make some more to get the achievement. Bit harsh taking ALL of them though.

    Before you get the pit bull and we all get pitchforks out, remember the botler only tells you who visited the immediate day before, not  the current day

  • Perhaps they died??

  • Everyone died. Problem solved.

    (...It's a possibility...)

  • Animal Youth Potion is expensive to make: it needs 6 guano, apart from the herb essences.

  • The odds of a simultaneous mass die-off of all kinds of animals on a street are extremely low.  If a player is absent from the game for a week or two and returns to no animals, sure; but an active player?  No.

  • Thank you all you wonderful Glitches who sent me new pets for my street!  The number of great players totally outnumbers the one rude thief.

    Love this game :)

    PS To the Thief: Haha- you lose.

  • I have the opposite problem! Animals keep showing up on my street! I think it's because I am a lovely pig farmer with lovely free-range piggies who eat off my trees and are happy and get daily pets. I'm like the Glitchen Pig Rescue, unwanted piggies are dropped off in the d ead of night. ;)

  • Oh, I just know when new players start streaming into the game we are all going to be dealing with pig-nappers. We will have to put in an education program so youngsters do not work on the assumption that all pigs are free range and automatically respawn.

  • I think we should just be cool about the piggies (and other animals) - it isn't like they are hard to replace.  So what if one gets moved to somewhere else?

  • I also think that it needs to be clearer that the bottler only lists visitors from the previous game day. Makes me a bit jittery visiting streets of Glitchen I don't know and be accused of something I didnt do.

    Glad your animals were replaced Gadzooks :)

  • I keep looking at this thread because I read the subject and wonder how to get animals to sleep.

  • I think anyone can take whats left out on a street. 
    Posted 5 months ago by Polly Nomial Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Oh no! Not that! Animals aren't easy to make. Geez.

  • Agreed, Troll Doll - I've seen a few people now talking about blocking people who were in their streets at the time that something happened, and I wonder if I've already been blocked for visiting the wrong days.

  • I'm pretty careful about blocking-- I only block repeat offenders, and only when I can be sure it was them that did it (only 1 visitor in the time frame, so usually only when I'm logging on fairly frequently) or I actually see them do it...

    Basically, if you come to my street and you leave a mess in my gardens, you will be blocked. I feel bad about it, but I don't have time to hunt down every person who does and find out if they just didn't know better (probably true sometimes), or are just habitually a jerk.

    (Preemptive to the "Tiny Speck allows us mess up your garden, and it's a public street, so why are you getting upset?" crowd  -- Glitch lets me block, so why are you arguing?)

    I've never blocked you, though. ;)

    I actually wish blocking was finer-grained-- I hate that blocking someone from my street means I don't get to chat with them, etc... :( :( :(

  • why would someone bother other than as a personal afront?  the world is full of wandering creatures for the taking were someone inclined.; thats pretty  nasty.

  • Seems like a lot of work to kill your non-piggy animals, plus they should only be able to capture one piggy from your street (for 45 days or whatever, right?).  Is it possible something else happened?
