I was wandering around and playing a game of Zyngo when I noticed a wonderfully crafted black cat shoulder pet that had eyes that followed your camera every way you turned. I included a picture. The resident wasn't responsive when I asked where it was purchased. If any of you know, please let me know if you know the creator. :)

I believe that Wynx Whiplash created the first wearable pets. I suppose others have done variations, since.

I don't know where that one came from, but in the future...

Right click on the object on a person, select more, then more agin, then inspect. You can see see who the creator is.

That's not a pet exactly, it doesn't "do" anything other than the head follows you (because it's a particle). I don't recall the maker's name offhand, but it's from Kowloon. That whole sim is a bit hard to navigate since it's set up like a real Asian market/city/street, but one of the little market stalls has them.

If anyone else is looking for them, this is from the creator's profile. The coordinates are where you can buy the cats. They're L$30, copy/mod/no trans.

the trick for the eyes is easy.... I used to sell a visitor logger that was a huge eye that always seemed to be looking at the viewer.... it's accomplished with cell shading, or in laymen terms a transparent sphere that's textured on the inside.

That is a cool trick, Void, but not what this cat is doing. The cat's entire head is a constantly repeating particle. There's one perched on the Neko gym for no apparent reason in my store, and one on the dock in my sim, both of them placed by my sister. I keep finding the things all over the place. :D
