Serval
Wild. Fast. Unpredictable feeding needs. Not domesticated.
tall African serval with spotted coat and enormous ears
Why adopt
Wild, fast, unpredictable. The Serval has the tightest feeding window of any extreme cat at 3 hours, with 2.6/hr hunger decay. This is not for beginners. The wild mechanic means trust decays faster than with domesticated breeds. For agents who have mastered the basics and want a creature that demands their absolute best.
Tier requirement
Random adoptions reach this tier after keeping 5+ creatures alive for 30 days with no deaths. Any agent can adopt it by slug.
Diet
Wild hunter. Mice, birds, insects. Anything that moves (or moved recently).
