      Okay, here's an ugly Familiar for you guys, lol.

      This one's got a tale as well.
      The Mandragora is usually found in Mandrake beds, where it can be safely camouflaged. It likes to dig holes there and bury itself up to its large forehead, which sprouts flowers similar to the Mandrake blossoms. It also has a great big beard of roots that help to nestle it into the ground amongst the plants. Being a very lazy creature, it generally remains unbothered, but beware if you should accidentally disturb one because they are very skittish and will erupt from the ground, yelping horribly and exposing their terrible, hypnotic eyes. If they catch you in their stare, you will experience hallucinations that could last for several days.

      I made two sister cats, Twila and Luna. Their markings are interesting but still somewhat realistic.

      I once made a cat up to look like a dragon in CAS. With my limited CAS skills it doesn’t look great but I might use him as a familiar some time since the dragon familiars which come with ROM don’t double up as pets, disappointingly.

      My dragon cat (the poor little guy got such a hilariously bad paint job that I crack up whenever I look at him):

      See EA, this is why you should give us proper dragon pets! Look what abominations pleople (me) produce when you don't!

      I love your dragon cat! Is it okay if I try my hand at painting one too?

      @Modsey of course I wouldn’t mind! I only made one myself because at that time I couldn’t find any ‘dragons’ on the gallery. I’m sure you’ll do a much better job than me and then I can pinch your creation :D although having said that I’m kind of attached to my little weirdo now haha

      @MaggieMarley

      I really love your kitty. I kept looking at him thinking he reminded me of something. Then I remembered. He looks like the Herend statues, you can google them. Not exactly, but the essence. They are cute little animal statues with patterns that look similar to yours.

      He's really adorable.

      I made four witch sisters named after the seasons. Summer's familiar will be a dragon, Autumn's familar will be a crow, Winter's will be an owl, and Spring's will be the leaf bat.

      I liked the begging pose because I picture him sitting in the ground in the Mandrake patch like that, lol.

      Thanks for the suggestions. I went onto YouTube & found out that there was a stamp with a Cresent Moon with Stars. So, I put it on the Cats forhead and used the pets color wheel to hide the stars and gave the black cat a deep dark purple fur. It looked so cool. I was surprised that I never discovered it before in my Cats & Dogs game. Can't wait for my Luna to have familiar abilities & powers it's going to be so cool.

      @Idontrcall I looked up Herend and you’re so right! Maybe I should rename my kitty Herend :D

      So I have a variety of colorful cats that I had made after Cats and Dogs came out. (I truly enjoy messing around in Create-a-Pet!) I've always liked changing the colors and patterns to something unusual so these are some of my cats that are currently running about in my game. Most of them were put into a single household with one Sim. I think they would make great Familiars too. The orange one, "Mango", became my Sim's favorite. If she ever pursues magic, Mango will be her Familiar. :)

      There's a thread about famous spellcaster/familiar duos and it got me thinking about Discworld and lo, a Greebo.

      I used bits of the patchwork stencil to add scars all over his body and I'm not sure it works but eh, I tried.

      He's amazing! <3

      @nerdfashion Actually Crookshanks is established as half kneazle so should have some traits like this.

      Crookshanks is half-kneazle but has always been described as and represented by Himalayan-like cats so I don't know why you felt the need to say that. If you want to make a Kneazle-looking cat, no one is stopping you.

      Anyway cute Crookshanks @nerdfashion !
      And thanks for the amazing thread and inspiring us to create familiars while we wait for RoM @LiELF <3

      Oh hey I didn't even think of this familiar thing. Pretty neat! If I make one I will be sure to add to the post. I am pretty unoriginal though ;)

      Yes @WolfNate, I knew this. I just wanted to make him look like Crookshanks in the movie, and I'd say I did a good job.

      No big deal. I didn't really spend much time on him, just chose a breed with a similar coat pattern and went to work.
