The point is: Second Life's security options often don't work, are variable in their efficacy, and often don't work as one would expect .. sometimes with surprising results. In this environment, it's possible that some bright lad might find a way .. and has, in the past.

Sorry for letting myself get derailed.

What about this idea?

My example Hiding Seal Lynx and Cream Tabby just made a box girl box and, of course, I'm gonna swap her in to raise my odds of visible success from 0% to 25%.

So I pop the box.

Now, normally, I'd feed the kitty for a week to get it old enough. Meanwhile, mom and dad would be cooking another box in the hopes of getting another daughter to go with the unusable sons I've been getting; letting me get another line cooking and raising my chances.

But, then, I'll have to wait another week while the kitten, and her dad, both gain love.

Food recovery takes a week.

Why the HECK am I feeding the kitten that first week?

If I put her on pet food (or starve her?) and only start her on breedable food level once mom and dad produce that box, I've saved on a week's worth of food for one cat. She can be recovering from pet food (or getting well?), for the second week.

Or am I forgetting something?

I think you're forgetting that it takes a week of recovery from being sick or in pet mode before they *start* gaining love, so the kitten would still be behind dad because she wouldn't start gaining love at the same time as dad (unless you spend extra lindens on one of the vitamins, which kind of defeats the purpose of holding it out). A kitten is ready at two weeks, basically -- so mom and dad have another week to pop another box for you, then dad and daughter start re-gaining/gaining love at the same time. Of course that leaves mom without a mate
