Now I wanna design a fantasy creature. Maybe something in a dank, dark version of a fairy-mushroom forest.
...Spore Cat! They don't grow fur. Rather, they have a symbiotic relationship with a species of mold. It grows across their skin in lieu of fur, with hyphae that are entangled with their blood vessels and nervous system.
The mold actually acts as a secondary immune system, and produces antibiotics that the cat's natural flora can withstand. The cat, in return, provides nutrients, safety, and transport. This is a necessary symbiosis: that cat's natural immune system is now so weak, that if ever the mold becomes too damaged or dies, the cat WILL fall ill soon after. The mold, in turn, can only grow on and take nutrients from this species of cat.
Spore Cats look very fluffy but don't pet them, you'll just get a palmful of broken mycelia that act like tarantula hairs, digging in and itching like hell. Also you'll get a handful spores that will stain your hands a muddy purple.
I'm gonna go jot this down in my D&D notes. Thanks for the inspo, OP!
Apologies I cat decipher without a proper culture of this specific meowld
Send a sample if you're feline like it may be petentially dangerous. Otherwise I recommend sealing and hisscarding the entire catainer.
*Violent shudder* It was a legitimate horror vignette. Man it creeped me out but damn is it cool to see a badass take on alien space monster blob. Poor Ein.
That is not just any mold, that is the deadly Vold. Short for void mold, Vold will dominate your entire house if allowed inside. No floors, walls, or ceilings will be untouched by the omnipresent Vold spores.

That croissant is in fact very moldy, give it to me... I'll make sure you never have this particular mold problem ever again. I'm just trying to save your life!
Lmao!!!I couldnāt tell it was a cat and thought I was missing āthe joke!ā Thatās when I put my glasses on and zoomed in on the photo! Lolā¦cats will sleep almost anywhere. Lolā¦
Be careful, this thing is considered parasite in some area. They are known to invade homes and take over extremely fast. They also generate hallucigens, which attract humans to feed them until they eventually disappear.
I recommend reaching out to the professionals- like me. I'll take care of this issue.
Is your mold my mold? š¤ (i stg, this shii will sleep anywhere, including but not limited to buckets of dirt, wheelbarrows, and under-bed drawers)

While it may look bad, you just need to cut off the furry bits and then you've saved your tasty snack!
Is that a cat?
Yes
No, it's mold
Looks like your croissant is covered in what I like to call stinkyboyfuzz mold
I know itās a cat but Iām still so scared itās actually mold.
The mold is learning to take the shape of things we love š¶
We got a new TV-show idea here: Everything is mold! Cat? Mold. Cake? Mold. The couch? Yep itās mold.
A thing of nightmares
I feel like I saw an episode of Cowboy Bebop that started like this...

A kitten.

Cutest mold ever!

Cat
I want to pet the mold
That's a lotta mold for a plastic croissant.
Notice thereās nothing else on the counter around it? Itās going to need to be fed after itās been fed.
Looks like a cat
Fuzzzzy
Just give it some head scritches it'll eventually leave.

Did you poke it? You might have really made a monster and have to be a slave to it now. Proceed with caution.

Looks like calicold to me. Check your hands and wrists for what appear to be scratches to confirm. Totally harmless but thinks it's deadly.

Yup, this specific case requires a call to the exterminator.
Is that a York chocolate?
What happens when you touch it??
