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 _resting_reef_!
![]() | Name: _resting_reef_ Appearance Doll: Sleepy Sea AD Guardian: @DizzyStranger Give Love! Bio: Resting Reef is a lonely goatling. They don't like the company of others and once in a blue moon are they seen with someone else, and luckily, most goatlings are okay with that and respect them. Except their girlfriend, Ranchu. They are very artistic, and enjoy making sand sculptures at the bottom of their stretch of sea. They're also, ironically, very energetic. |
Favorite Treasure
Turtle (it's their pet!) | Whale Sushi


Short Story
Resting Reef prodded the small pile of sand with their hoof, shaping it in the shape of an intricate archway. Their frothing tail wrapped tightly around their hind legs, they held their breath with anticipation, scooted backward and straightened themselves. It, thankfully, did not topple, and remained strong and stationary. Or at least, it didn't until a goatling swam aggressively through the clearing, a cascading current of bubbles and orange-and-white scales, and landed directly on the arch. Ranchu. They sighed, allowed the corners of their mouth to quirk in a slight smile, and paddled over to her to greet her.

Greetings Fanlings!
Goatlings.com is hosting a special Live Stream event on Twitch.tv as a way to gauge interest in raising funds for more charities not already hosted on-site.
In order to hold fundraisers on Twitch, we need to reach certain goals first to become an Affiliate such as; 50 Followers, stream for 8 hours, stream on 7 different days, and have an average of 3 viewers.
Why on Twitch?
Twitch has a fee-free and easy to use fundraising feature where donations are passed directly to the charity.
And since we have hosted successful "Work With Me" style Live Streams in the past, we thought members might again enjoy seeing what we are currently working on via a live to-do list, and relax to calming lofi music.
Our first test stream is live now! CLICK HERE for more info and to watch!
Thank you!
