I wanted to make a direct announcement for you all to say how grateful I am for all of you, and that I am so proud we've been able to do so much with you, and our small but dedicated team, over the years.
As another year comes to a satisfying close, we are looking back and appreciating all of the hard work that goes on behind-the scenes to keep the site a safe and welcoming environment, as well as improving the site by polishing features, and adding more fun things to do!
As Members have been expressing their interest in wanting to specially support our hard working staff members, I am happy to say there are many ways to do so! Sending love, posting encouraging messages, enjoying your time here, and simply being excited about updates, make us all very happy, motivated, and grateful!
And while Goatling Staff are compensated for their time, I'd like to open the opportunity to directly support our team by sending them an optional tip for their service!
So, in response to this idea, I’d like to introduce you to a upcoming unique annual event fundraiser that has been created as a way to show appreciation for our incredibly passionate Goatling Staff!
In essence, this event is an opportunity to directly tip a end-of-year bonus to the Goatling Staff members, and so we have dubbed it; Tip-A-Mod (aka TAM)!

We encourage members to only tip what they can personally afford, and what they are personally comfortable with donating. The list of donors will be hidden to prevent unhealthy competition or overspending, and we will not reveal the status of individual members, even if asked by said member. After the event, Design Pass winners may reveal who they are if they so choose, or remain completely anonymous throughout the process. Additionally, if a top donor doesn’t wish to keep their Design Pass, they can notify staff who will pass it on to the next eligible member.

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 Missy_Danger!
 | Name: Missy_Danger Appearance Doll: Time Guardian AD Guardian: @Cupcraft1012 Give Love! Bio: A time goddess with a mature attitude. Currently dating Goldy_Fins. |
Favorite Treasure
Open Terrarium | Violin
Short Story
Missy Danger is a time goddess. She grew up as a mortal, and learned violin at a young age. She became a prodigy. But, time, was not on her side. After being diagnosed with an incurable sickness, she sought out a way to extend her time on Earth. Missy’s search led her to an ancient group, that praised the time gods. The people believe Missy to be a time goddess that had fallen from the heavens. A prophet had told them she would be searching for a way to harness time and would turn to them. They brought Missy to a throne room and there, she sat on the throne. All knowledge of time flowed through her, and she ascended to a time goddess.

The Present by StockingAnarchy
[Lala or LalaLatte is a goat of mine that uses the Justice RAD]
Lala had been through many Winter seasons in Palace Town before, but none as uneventful as this one. It was cold, but it was Winter, and Winter is supposed to be cold. It was now the perfect time for warm drinks, but Lala was a barista that drank warm drinks all year anyway. It would snow, but never enough to go sledding or make snowgoats.
Other years were full of dramatic weather, new friendships and romances blooming, and fun activities to partake in with friends. This year, though, was a bit of a flop.
Gifts were also customary this time of year, but Lala knew she wouldn’t be getting any. She had become quite lonely this year as a consequence of her focus on her cafe and her many new cats. Presents weren’t for goats who kid in their houses all year. Or so she thought.
As Lala made it inside her home after a long day of work, one of her sweet little kitties waltzed over to purr and rub against one of her hind legs. She cooed and beamed at her little friend, giving him the attention he craved. She eventually moved away and refilled the bowls of all her pets before making herself a hot cup of cocoa.
Seated on her sofa with a blanket, TV blaring some old seasonal movie, cats snuggled beside her, blanket covering her body, hot cocoa in hoof, Lala thought to herself.
Perhaps I don’t need a new pair of socks in a box covered in pretty papers and bows. Maybe the present of Winter is gift enough for me.
She smiled to herself as she took a final sip from her mug and sank into the sofa. The sound of snoring cats and old holiday movies soon lulls her to sleep on an uneventful Winter’s night.
Congratulations and thank you everyone for participating!
