Cocoa: Gooood aftertoon, Dirtkitties! What? I said ‘Dirtkitties’? That's right. Don't you think it's about time for some change around here? I mean soap? Puppies?! Just propesterious! Who runs this place??? Well, there's no need to think about that any longer, since we’ll be taking things from here!

We're Dirtkitties!

Dirtkitties are a species of cat made up of ‘dirt’ and gummy. Their tails take the shape of different gummy animals. Check out their traits and anatomy guide! Some traits do not yet have images, but this will be fixed soon!

Since you’ll be seeing us around here from now on, it's time for introductions.


zorua

I'm Cocoa. I’m the head of the Kitchen! I’m in charge of all sorts of things to do with our delicious treats!


zorua
This is my sibling, Trix. Watch your tails around them, they’re a real prankseter!

We’re so excited to be here! We’ll be getting rid of all that soap and water, and replace it with our tasty treats, whimsical magic, and fun!! isn't that so exciting?! What's that? Where are the others? Uh…


slug
Don't worry about it! They’ll be safely sidelined, no harm done! You just… won't see them for a while. Maybe ever again? Haha!

Welcome to Dirtkitties!

Note: Although not covered here, another newsletter with our April news will release later today. We do have a fair amount of unrelated updates. Please try to hold any questions regarding changes you may notice until then. Thank you!

Valentine's Day [Part 2 - End]

Posted 2 weeks ago :: Last edited 2 weeks ago by slug

Valentine's Day 2025

February 14th - April 7th


zorua

It's a long trudge to Sudsy's house, but with you and Milo's combined efforts, you're able to carry all of the packages with ease. Still, it's not easy in the cold, and when you finally reach her doorstep, you can barely feel your paws!

Milo looks over at her mailbox. "Erm... I don't think any of this will fit in there. Let's just knock, shall we?" he bleets before tapping at the door with his hoof. You can hear a quick pittering of pawsteps as someone runs to the door and flings it open! Out bursts the one and only Sudsy!

"Hi Milo!!!!!!" she yaps, wagging her tail, "you have Valentines for me, right? Right??"

"Sure do!" Milo replies, before beginning to take some of the boxes out of the cart.

Sudsy's eyes light up as she grabs a box. "OOOO let me see!! What's in this one?"

She tears into the box with her teeth excitedly and opens it. She blinks at the contents, face falling a little bit. "Ah!" she says. "Chocolate."

She shakes herself. "Well! Let's see what's in the next one then!"

Chocolate. Chocolate. Chocolate chocolate and more chocolate.

"AUUGHH!!!!" Sudsy groans, before flopping onto the floor, defeated. "Not again!! This happens every year! I'm a dog! Dogs cant eat chocolate!!

Milo winces, and you frown sympathetically at the disheartened dog splayed out onto the floor. You suggest that perhaps Sudsy could do something else with all this chocolate instead of eating it.

Sudsy looks at you for a moment in thought before her face lights up. "YOU!!! You're right!" She scrambles for all of the chocolate pieces, pushing them together and forming them into a huge chocolate mountain while she giggles with delight. "If we melt a bunch of the chocolate together, then let it cool, we'll have a big blocks of chocolate! And we can make chocolate sculptures out of them!! Wanna help?"

You seem to be doing a lot of volunteer work today, but hey, you don't have much better to be doing. Let's get sculpting!

Hello everyone, apologies for the lateness of the second event part! The event has been extended to April 7th because of the delay!

Story Prompt:

That's a lot of chocolate! Depict your Soapuppy making a chocolate sculpture or enjoying chocolate as a treat! Completing this prompt will earn you 100 duckies, the Chocolatier award, a mystery letter, and a random Valentines pet. The first event prompt must be completed before you submit to this prompt.

Event Prompt:
The Valentines event prompt will also remain open till April 7th! Create a "valentine" featuring your or someone else's Soapuppy! The award for this prompt will be Duckies, along with a few Mystery Envelopes, which give random prizes, even ones that could be very valuable! You can complete this prompt as many times as you want.

New pets:

We have 3 new Valentines pets that will be avaliable in the Pet Shop starting now! Completion of the Chocolatier prompt will also give you one random event pet.

Valentine's Day! [Part 1]

Posted 1 month ago :: Last edited 2 weeks ago by zorua

Valentine's Day 2025

February 14th - April 7th


zorua, Indigoidiot

Winter is still in full force in the bathtub, and the sharp nip in the air is enough to keep any Soapuppy in their right mind shut inside. As you stare out of your window, yearning for warmer weather, you can make out a figure in the distance, trudging through the snow. A Soapuppy? Outside in this weather!? 

It’s difficult to make out what exactly the Soapuppy is doing, but suddenly you see them stop and fall to the ground, not moving. After deliberating for a second, you decide to run outside to go see if they’re okay.

You brace yourself before stepping out into the cold winds and trudging through the snow towards the shape in the distance, and as you grow closer you can see that the Soapuppy is slumped over next to a huge cart full of packages! The Soapuppy looks up at you as you walk up and ask if he’s okay. 

“Oh! (huff) yes, I’m quite alright! Just taking a rest. I’m Milo, the mailman around here, so I deliver packages.” He glances up at the cart he’s pulling with a grimace. “Usually I just deliver packages by flight, but this load is just too heavy, and I need to get them to their recipient by the end of today! I don’t know how I’m going to magage it!.”

You take a glance at the packages. All of them are wrapped in gaudy paper, and as you look closer, you can see they’re all addressed to…. Sudsy!?

Milo looks up at you nervously. “Hey, um… I know this might be a lot to ask, sorry, but would you be able to help me carry a few of them? It’s so cold out here, and if I keep going at this rate, I think my wings might freeze over!”

Well… you’d rather really not hang out in this weather for much longer, but these packages were for Sudsy.... maybe you’d be able to get her autograph? You nod to Milo, and his face lights up. “Oh, thank you, thank you! Could you grab these ones right here? Sudsy’s house isn’t too far!”


Happy Valentine's day, everyone! We have a small event ongoing for the next few weeks. A second part with more special things will be coming soon, but for now, enjoy this!

Story Prompt:

It's time to help Milo! Depict your Soapuppy delivering or creating valentines! Completing this prompt will earn you basic rewards, the Love Mail award, along with being able to participate in the prompt for next part! This prompt will remain open with the next part as well.

Event Prompt:
Create a "valentine" featuring your or someone else's Soapuppy! The award for this prompt will be Duckies, along with a few Mystery Envelopes, which give random prizes, even ones that could be very valuable! You can complete this prompt as many times as you want.

Sudsy Says:

A special Sudsy Says will take place in our Discord server today around 5:00 PM PST, lasting for two rounds.

February Newsletter

Posted 1 month ago :: Last edited 1 month ago by slug

Sorry for the wait, but our news for February is ready!

Monthly Prompt:

Due to the delays, there will be no monthly prompt this month. Apologies!

Event:

Misc.:

  • Art for some collections has been updated. Give your site a hard refresh if you can’t see them! These will continue to be updated as time goes on.
  • New stock has been added to the Bubble Shop!
  • Writing rates have been adjusted due to an error. Writing rates are now inline with our intended rates, and are eligible now for bonuses.
  • Site registrations and affiliate requests have re-opened for now, though we are only testing the waters currently and may continue our shut-down to find a new solution if our issue with bots persists. If you notice anything, please feel free to report it to us! Otherwise, enjoy! More bots have been reported, so unfortunately, we will have to close them again for a bit longer. Apologies!
    • Because of open registrations, the FTO bundle has been bumped up to now costing 50 Duckies. This is a price we believe is easily accessible for new users, as we still want to provide an easy entry into our species, but will help to avoid any potential instances of multi-accounting exploitation as we will no longer be able to easily track all new registrations. We greatly apologize if this inconviences anyone!

Upcoming:

  • 🪱?
  • Breedings will be opening again this month on the 20th, with a special sale for Valentine’s day. If you share the breeding with someone else, the price will be discounted to 30$ for two babies, or 15$ per owner!
    • Purchasing a breeding this month will also allow you to add an (optional) free add-on that gives your babies a chance at passing down rarer traits the parents may not have!
  • A… sizeable event will be held sometime soon.
  • Still working on more permanent updates!

Thanks for reading! We’re very excited for the things we have coming up very soon, and we hope everyone sticks around until then.

Reposted Reminders:

  • Please do not file reports for anything other than bug and user reports. Reports are only able to be viewed by a very small amount of our team who manage the site and user reports. If you need private help, you can submit a claim, ask in our Discord server, or contact a staff member.

First Anniversary! & Misc.

Posted 2 months ago :: Last edited 2 months ago by slug

Hello everyone! A year ago today, January 4th, the official relaunch of Soapuppies took place! We’ve had so much fun working with this wonderful concept and building our incredible community, and we have a few things prepared to say thanks for the continued support from all members, old and new!

Duckie Raffle: PRZ-1000

The long-awaited #1000 raffle is here! We began this around October, and finished it in time for our anniversary. As per usual, Tickets can be purchased for 25 Duckies in Sudsy’s Shop, and you can enter once for free! For the sake of fairness, you can only purchase 10 entries, meaning you will have a maximum of 11 total if you've claimed the bundle!

This design is a collab between slug, mikeyway, zorua, and sam! It will be rolled on February 1st.

Anniversary Bundle:

For the next week, until January 11th, you can claim a free Anniversary Bundle from Sudsy’s shop with some exclusive prizes! Please open these before April 1st, as they are not permanent collectibles and will need to be reused in the future.

The Pound:

The pound is now open! In short, this is a place where characters can be created, or pre-existing characters can be surrendered, for other users to adopt with Bubbles!

  • Creating characters is essentially like creating an MYO, though an MYO slot is not required. You may use any common and uncommon traits for free.
  • Surrendering characters is turning in your pre-existing characters to the pound, thus forfeiting your ownership to a new owner.

Both surrenders and creations award 30 Bubbles each and have a limit of two per month. The Pound’s page has more detailed rules on everything, so please be sure to read everything through!

Surrenders will be closed for the first two weeks of the pound being open. This is to allow for an equal start between all users, regardless of how many characters each has.


Our team has created a few designs currently for purchase in the pound.

Additionally, The Bubble Shop is now open! More items are on the way, so keep an eye out!

Misc.:

  • Profiles have received a minor visual update. Collections and Awards have been reduced and size, but are now visible without being toggled
  • The FTO bundle has been adjusted. It is now free, but has less prizes due to the reduced price and inclusion of 50 Bubbles.

Now that we’ve found our footing, we’re incredibly excited for everything the future holds and how we’ll continue to improve and develop! Thank you all so much (and a special thanks to our staff team!) for your support and interest over the past year! ❤️

Reposted Reminder:

Signups and affiliate requests are currently closed due to an influx of bots. If you know of anyone trying to sign up, or would like to affiliate with us, please let someone of the Moderator rank know so we can either open affiliates or grab a sign up code! As of 12/22 we have banned all of the bots, but still need to work on installing a future prevention. Options for this are being currently looked into. We’ll be fully open again soon!

December Newsletter

Posted 3 months ago :: Last edited 2 months ago by slug

Happy new year! This will be a relatively short newsletter as most news for this month will actually be released on January 4th, both because the team has been pretty busy and because we have a few things in store for our first anniversary on the same day! However, we have a few small things.

Monthly Prompt:

This month’s prompt is resolution! Is there something your Soapuppy has set out to change or do more this year? Show that off! For a bonus, make it at least a fullbody!

Misc.:

  • Redesign items now have a small sale value attached to them! If you own any, you can sell them for the amount of duckies listed under their sale values. This will be permanent, but the value may change in the future.

  • The New Year’s Box can now be opened! Please open these before April 1st, as they are not permanent collectibles and we will need to reuse the item. If you haven’t opened yours by then, it will be deleted and you will be manually granted the contents.

  • Loot tables have generally been updated and fixed. If you’ve noticed anything dropping strangely or more recent things not dropping at all, that should be better now!

  • One of our moderators has created page on sheezy.art where previous assets from our events and sites will be posted. If you’re interested in that, check it out!

Upcoming:

  • The Pound will be launching on the 4th! Our new currency for the Pound is called Bubbles 7-icon.png and a few unique items, such as Suspicious Soap, will be able to be purchased with it as well.
    • Per staff feedback, rarity rates for the Suspicious Soap have been slightly altered, exclusive traits are now twice as unlikely to roll, and multiple eyes and multiple tails have been adjusted to be rolled less as well. (This is due to the fact that they are the only modifier traits for eyes and tails, their drop rate was higher than most other modifiers)

7-image.png
Keep an eye out for something else special on the 4th too!

  • 🪱?

Reminders:

  • This is Discord-exclusive, but please remember to put any questions you have about the species, regardless of if it’s specifically intended for a staff member, within the mod help channel! This is to ensure a moderator can easily see it, and so others with the same question will be able to easily see the answer.

  • Please do not file reports for anything other than bug and user reports. Reports are only able to be viewed by a very small amount of our team who manage the site and user reports. If you need private help, you can submit a claim, ask in our Discord server, or contact a staff member. Thank you!
  • Signups and affiliate requests are currently closed due to an influx of bots.

As of 12/22 we have banned all of the bots, but still need to work on installing a future prevention. Options for this are being currently looked into. We’ll be fully open again soon!

Congratulations to the winners!

Secret Soapuppy:

If you've completed your Secret Soapuppy art, you may now share it with your recipient starting now! These are still due on December 31st, at latest, but can begin being shared now.  If you have not finished your piece, please be sure to check your Discord DMs from soapyadmin to give us a confirmation on if you will need to drop out or not. Thank you!

misc. updates:

If you've claimed all the days of the advent calendar, you may notice something  new today! Introducing, the Suspicious Soap! These are a rare item that you can redeem to get a randomized traitlist to try and make a character off of! We've found these to be very fun to play around with, so we hope everyone enjoys!

As we have a large amount coming in today and due to the current holidays, we will be temporarily limiting these to 15 global submissions daily to reduce our workload, meaning you may not be able to claim yours right away. Patience is very appreciated with these!

Advent Calendar & Misc updates

Posted 3 months ago :: Last edited 3 months ago by slug

winter advent calendar

Our winter Advent Calendar will begin tonight at the site's reset! View it here: https://www.soapuppies.com/advent-calendars/1

If you would like to be reminded each day, you can grab the Daily Reset role within our Discord Server! A quick access link will be added to the nav bar shortly.

This includes some exclusive pets, borders, and themes, and, if you log in everyday, you can get a special new item we will soon be introducing formally!

misc updates & upcoming:

We'd also like to announce a few mid-month updates/advanced update notices.

  • Snowball Fight
    • We will have to delay the Snowball Fight event indefinitely, apologies! It will not be cancelled, but postponed until proper time can be allocated to work through some technical difficulties. It will still take place some time during December and January!

  • The Pound
    • Again, the pound will be opening in January! Alongside what was previously stated, we've also decided to include a shop using the pound's new currency. This will include some more gimmicky things, such as randomized MYO slots and some extra features for self-breedings. There'll be a few things in there from the start, but we'll continue to add more stock as we think of it! This combines features we've been brainstorming for a very long time, and we're very excited to put this into motion!
  • Traits
    • We are still currently working a lot on revamping and reworking our trait system to be clearer and more accessible.  With this will. come the updating of a lot of rarities and additions, removals, and spliting of traits. Due to the size of this update, we will not be able to provide compensation for anything changed due to the workload.
  • Dailies
    • Dailies will soon be making a change. The Daily Wheel and Gachapon Capsule will be decreased in availability (either by time incraments or by price), and, in turn, have their prize values slightly increased. These will be replaced with a new, free, daily to check in on!

  • General Site Maintenance
    • As we continue to prepare for our updates, please expect the possibilites of some oddities, error pages, hidden things, missing or incorrect data/values, etc., especially pertaining to the things above. Generally speaking, we will be aware of any of these issues as they will likely be due to incomplete features, but you are still free to report them. Just note we cannot guarantee any fixes or full functionality until January, so patience is appreciated!

Notice on registrations & affiliates

Posted 3 months ago :: Last edited 3 months ago by slug
Quick notice! A recent bot spam issue in our members list has been detected by a few of our staff memebers and our current best course of action before we can properly counteract it is to close registrations and affiliates for now until it is fully dealt with. During this time, if anyone wishes to sign up for our site or submit an affiliate request, they may directly request an invite code or for us to temporarily reactive our affiliates. Sorry for the inconvinience, but we hope to get this handled ASAP!
