Welcome to Studio Blu!A monthly prompt event based in the official Goatlings.com Discord server!
How it works!At the beginning of each month, a Discord moderator will post an inspirational theme. Members wishing to participate can draw or write a short story or poem about a Goatling using the theme as a guide!
Prizes!At the end of the month, two entries will be randomly selected to be featured on the site News and the members will receive a special in-game trophy!
The Studio Blu prompt for March was: Tea Parties! And the winners are:
@mimic (Give Love!)
Artist's Note: a rowdy pirate tea party! - at this rate they'll be fishing cutlery out of the harbor for weeks
and @BusyBeeHours (Give Love!)
Tea Time Wednesday! (With LavenderRaven and SubconMinion)
It’s Wednesday and we know that means,
It’s time for tea for you and me!
It’s 12 PM, we must hurry!
You bring the cups and I have the tea!
It’s jasmine today-
Oh, what’s this? Sweets today?
How thoughtful of you to bring!
We sit down on our cushioned chairs,
And we talk for hours on end-
Just the same as every Wednesday,
And yet we never tire,
Because we are best friends
And what is better than for us
To talk over cakes and tea,
Deep into the afternoon,
With chittering bugs and chirping birds,
Singing a sweet tune?
And when it turns to evening,
We’ll go outside
And stare up higher and higher
Into the night sky,
Picking out the prettiest constellations,
And the brightest stars,
And when one flies across the sky!-
We close our eyes and open our hearts,
Full of wishes and thoughts-
A ghost and a doctor,
Wishing to remain friends forever.
Congratulations and thank you everyone for participating!

Welcome to the annual Jestling event where anything ridiculous is bound to happen! Event period is April 1st to April 30th 2022.
Members can now visit Zurora's crafting shop to exchange their Jest Balloons for a Jest Balloon AD! Check the recipe book to see all event crafts!
It appears to be an Appearance Doll, but something isn't quite right. Is this a real Goatling?
Time will tell!
Yellow Jest Balloon + Blue Jest Balloon + Pink Jest Balloon = Jest Balloon AD
Find more details about the Jestling Event at the Community Center!

Click here to play Treasure Trivia now!
Win a Autism Infinity Icon and 3,000 Sugar Stars! This item is now permanently located at the Display Name Icons for a special price as well!
Note: New Treasure Trivia games start at the beginning of each month. Treasure Trivia prizes do NOT retire. The prize is typically a special new Shopping District item.
This special Display Name Icon has been created in honor of World Autism Acceptance Day (April 2nd). The Autism Infinity Icon is an official staff design by @Lostysaur (Send Love)
In a society that is educated and accepting of the Autism spectrum, the autistic community can live happy and healthy lives. For this reason, we strongly encourage the spread of Autism acceptance.
Autism spectrum disorder is a developmental disability that generally appears before the age of 3 and affects 1 in 68 people. Raised acceptance and support can help lead to early and more accurate diagnoses, which can then assist those on the spectrum in learning physical, thinking, and communication skills to comfortably navigate their lives. It can also help to curb the spread of harmful misinformation and assumptions made towards Autism and those effected.
What can we do to help?
Listen to Autistic voices, conduct your own research about Autism symptoms, learn the difference between good and bad Autism organizations, debunk harmful myths, and support Autistic creators.
For those who are able, we encourage donating to reputable autistic led organizations that help support the Autistic community. Today, we would like to recommend the Autistic Women and Nonbinary Network (AWN). The mission of the AWN is to provide community, support and resources for Autistic women, girls, nonbinary people, and other marginalized genders.
Goatlings.com will always be a welcoming and supportive space for our Autistic members and staff.
Thank you all!

Welcome to Goatling Spotlight! A mini event where we get to show off your favorite Goatlings! Each week a new Goatling will be featured in the News and the owner will receive a shiny Spotlight Trophy to display on their pets page or in their collection. This week is all about Daweson!
 | Name: Daweson Appearance Doll: Gardener AD Guardian: @ BigGayDisaster Give Love! Bio: Lion is "Gladdie" (his service animal) and hen is "Nugget" (she's not a plush, really!) Daweson is a young goat with a passion for gardening, making jams, and baking for his friends. He can usually be found with dirt or flour smudges (if he ever has both, he was gardening after baking!) and Nugget perched on his back. He has mobility issues that are worse in his hind legs- hence the wheels- and poor coordination in his front- though, if he ever needs help, he knows he can count on his friends and Gladdie! |
Favorite Treasure

Greetings Fanlings!
April Support Boxes are now available at the Community Center.
In addition to our classic (Dawn/Twilight/Dusk) Support Boxes, we are introducing a brand new set of Support Boxes! The new box themes are Eclipse Flight, Rainbow Flight, and Solar Flight. Availability of classic and new Support Boxes will rotate every month.
Support Box Schedule
January - classic set
February - new set
March - classic set
April - new set
May - classic set
June - new set
July - classic set
August - new set
September - classic set
October - new set
November - classic set
December - new set
In order to keep the amount of boxes released a year consistent for classic boxes, the maximum amount of boxes members can obtain a month have increased from 1 to 2.
Monthly Support goals are mini fundraisers that help with general behind-the-scenes expenses such as small program updates, taxes, site maintenance, staff payments, and site fees. Our longer term goals also include taking on more help, improving current features, and upgrading the arcade with the help of our two new programmers!
Monthly Support also helps to keep the site ad free, and sneak peeks free on social media.
Three Support Boxes are available each month on rotation; Dawn Lucky Box, Twilight Lucky Box, and Dusk Lucky Box will be available for one month, and Eclipse Lucky Box, Rainbow Lucky Box, and Solar Lucky box will be available the next (and so on and so forth). Members can receive up to two of each unique Support Boxes during each new month’s support period - regardless of how much is donated.
These mini fundraisers will be reset at the start of each month, allowing members who donate to receive up to 6 new boxes a month. Support Box(es) will be added to the members account automatically as soon as a donation is made.
Thank you for your support!
