News, Announcements, & Dev Log
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 Nebula Starborne!
 | Name: Nebula_Starborne Appearance Doll: Nebula AD Guardian: @Starfire_Nebula Give Love! Bio: Nebula is a pretty busy goat, juggling her herd leader responsibilities with nursing baby stars. Nebula is a space cloud goat, and baby stars continuously form in her gaseous fur. She bottle feeds them elements like helium and hydrogen until they are big enough to grow on their own, to which she sends them up into the night sky in a tearful farewell. |

Short Story
Nebula sighed. She'd just bottle fed the last of her current stars, and it fell asleep. Placing it in her fluffy fur, she stretched. Shaking off the numb feeling in her limbs, she trotted off to check on her herd.
After a couple of hours, and satisfied with her report, she took stock of her inventory of bottles.
Hm, I'm expecting a new shipment soon, and then I'll have to fill them, she thought to herself.
"Hello?" A voice called from outside.
"Yes?" Nebby responded. The voice sounded familiar. Was it?
"Nebula? Oh, uh, hi! I was wondering who would order so many baby bottles," the goat replied, trotting into view. It was none other than Marvin, the mars goat! His cute little rover followed behind him, carrying the shipment.
"Hehe, only me," Nebula giggled, cheeks flushing.
"Well um, here's your delivery!" Marvin exclaimed, color flooding his face.
Nebula smiled. It was a perfect end to a normal day.

Greetings Fanlings!
August Support Boxes are now available at the Community Center.
Monthly Support goals are mini fundraisers that help with general behind-the-scenes expenses such as small programing updates, taxes, site maintenance, staff payments, and site fees.
Monthly Support also helps to keep the site ad free, and sneak peeks free on social media.
Three Support Boxes are available each month; Dawn Lucky Box, Twilight Lucky Box, and Dusk Lucky Box. Members can only receive one of each unique Support Box 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 3 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!

and @Starfire_Nebula (Give Love!)
Sasha sighed. She had swallowed the last of her waffle cone, and licked the remnants of her seashell popsicle off her hoof.
It was her second frozen treat of the day, and she would feel guilty if she showed up again to Minty Melt’s parlour for yet another. The day was exceptionally hot, and her wallet stared back at her, empty of sugar stars.
Sasha continued sitting under a beach umbrella, watching the water in front of her. Her beloved Zen was riding the waves with his buddies, and Sasha giggled as she noticed his cool crab buddy hanging on to his tail for dear life.
She wondered about the summer night carnival, which was coming up soon. She couldn’t wait to climb onto the ferris wheel for an amazing view, beside her love. But, that moment was still a couple of weeks away.
Zen shuffled onto shore, tugging his surfboard behind him. “Hey babe. Saw that monster wave?”
Sasha nodded. “Yeah, real killer.” She smiled as he softly licked her cheek.
“Let me guess, Seashell Popsicle? After a Strawberry Frozen Yogurt?” Zen smirked knowingly.
Sasha bushed. “Listen, today is exceptionally hot. I couldn’t help myself,” she said defensively.
He pulled his hooves up in defense. “I know, I know. I stick to the water to cool off, while you stick to the sweets.”
Sasha nodded. “The way it should be.”
Zen pulled out his wallet, where sugar stars sat innocently. “Alright, I’ll get you your last for today-”
“Dolphin Ice Cream, pleeaaaaasssseee,” she interjected, already expecting him to offer.
He winked and strolled off, their arms linking together.
Sasha wanted to hurry if they were to see the sunset.
Congratulations and thank you everyone for participating!
