So, a while back, Waddigator made a catz breed based on Spamton from Deltarune.
I guess Toby Fox found out about it, because...
Well, this is one of the secret pages on a special anniversary event:
As you may know, Cat Petterz 2 is one of this admin's favorite games. To those that don't know, it's a game where you take care of a cat and raise it. Sounds simple, right? XD
Actually, the game has a REALLY deep animation and breeding system... So players have been able to hex edit the game data to create brand-new pets.
If you download the right mods, you can raise birds, hamsters, cars, cartoon characters, and even more. Mewmewqueen's Sympton family pack is a great example of how far things can go.
However, you have to be careful, because, not all mods are very compatible. When pets fall in love, an egg appears and it hatches into a new pet that combines the animation and visual data of the two parents. Meaning, if you try to breed a hamster and a car, you'll either get a complete freak of nature XD Or, worse, you'll get this message.
"Incompatible pet"
Then the game will freeze and the music will glitch out.
I was so scared of seeing this message as a kid, I would punish my pets so that they would NEVER fall in love. If an egg did appear, I would throw in the trash right away.
Until one day...

Obviously, not all the details line up exactly with the game we know and love (breeding didn't show up in 1997's Petz II, but rather in 1998's Petz 3; also, catz laying eggs? What is this, Oddballz? XD) but I think the divergence from the real games is probably intentional, since otherwise the BAD EGG pokemon-inspired creepypasta that the page links to wouldn't have the necessary context to make sense.
It's not every day that Petz gets a shoutout from more recent media, so I thought people might find it fun to hear about this!
