✭✭✭✭So... can I buy the Japanese version?Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.***Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis1 -

Screenshot, please!
I believe the pet is available if you purchase a copy of the game from amazon.co.jp
Here's the picture that's used in the description:
Yes this is exactly the kitty I saw. ZOS you don't have to give him to me, just put him in the Crown Store and I will gladly buy him! You can even remove the "special" red collar!PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!2 -

The obvious answer? "They don't care".
As with almost any business these days- they've got your money already. The days of "customer loyalty" are long gone- it's all about making a quick buck, offshore accounts and quick retirement. Ever since the dotcoms and getting rich overnight with the stock market, almost every business has turned into a cash-grab model.
Pre-orders, hyped announcements, borderline false advertisement, etc.TL;DR - If you got this far without reading the entire post you're either too lazy or suck at reading comprehension and probably don't belong in a public forum anyway. Just move along, you wouldn't understand.4 -

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't the code come separately from the game? Just like how the Imperial Edition items and Explorer's Pack were separate codes.UESP Staffer & Wiki Editor0 -

Well the version of the game on the Japanese version of amazon that includes the cat code is like $85.00 at the current conversion rate. Yes, I actually considered this. But no, my lunacy only goes so far. I REALLY WANT THIS CAT THOUGH!!!!PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!1 -

I did discover you can buy the pig pet on eBay. Maybe the cat will show of there too. Probably before it makes it to the crown store.PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!0 -

I have all those things and would gladly exchange both the Dwemer Sphere and the Ice Wraith as well as my Mask of Cheerful Slaughter for the black cat! Why am I being punished for supporting the game with an unbroken sub since launch???
Why are you using the word punished for a virtual pet?
This kind of drama is why I reckon we're often ignored.
You're not being punished.
You just don't get a perk attached to a certain release.
Not the first time, not the last.
Oh and the pig was given away at whatevercon or won in the Hel Ra Trial competition for same whatevercon I forgot the name, because I didn't go but I got the brown pig for placing in the hel ra thing for that same event.
People are selling the pig code on eBay from the whatevercon.Edited by Mureel on June 25, 2016 1:15PM2 -

✭✭✭✭✭Awwwwwww darn! That sucks.
Technically they recoloured the steam dog... so in theory they would need to recolour the cat to stay within the same practice... and then it wouldn't be black!

✭✭✭✭✭Ah well, I'm growing attached to the little Nixad anyway. But I hope a similar black cat (minus the red collar, the other 2 cat pets do not have a collar) does become available at some point in the future.
That's understandable. The Nixad is hands-down the best pet they added to date. It is not only adorable (I mean, have you seen it sneeze?!), but it also have more unique animations than I could identify on any other pet, by far. I hope we get the other two colors soon. I have many characters and not two of them use the same mount/pet/costume/hair style though, it is one of my "rules", so I would still get a black cat if they sold one even if the Nixad is my favourite pet.Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.
Meet my characters:Command: Do the thing.
Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.1 -

I have all of these and I think the loyalty program should still be in place, allowing everyone who subscribes long enough to earn these rewards regardless of when they joined the game.

✭✭✭✭@MornaBaine : +1 hoping you get your cat! Honestly I'm surprised a popular color like that was made exclusive.Exclusive content sucks, even if it's only cosmetic.
+1 this also. It's one thing to choose not to get something--for financial reasons, because you don't like the look of it, because it doesn't 'mesh' well with your character--another to have no choice for circumstances beyond your control.
