✿ How do I get a MYO item?
By purchasing one with USD during a MYO sale, species currency ('goldleaves') here, and via gift or trade.
✿ Why do I have to be 21+ to join Cossetlings?
To comply with Paypal ToS, general content warnings, and because of the interactive community aspect. This is meant to a space for older adults. Please respect this.
✿ How I verify my email and/or account?
A verification link is sent to your email address once you've registered an account. If you cannot find it, please check your spam/junk folder and turn off any VPNs. If you do not get an email within 24 hours, please message staff through email (admin@cossetlings.com) or #ask-staff channel on Discord. Once your email is verified, you'll need a deviantart or toyhou.se account to verify your account here. Please note you need an invite code to make a toyhou.se account while deviantart is free.

✿ Do I have to make my Cossetlings lore-compliant?
Design-wise? Yes. Character/Background? Nope. You're free to use your Cossetlings however you like in regards to your personal stories. Official Cossetlings are still bound by the TOS no matter how you use them.
✿ Can Cossetlings crossbreed with another species?
No, crossbreeding isn't allowed.
✿ Can I void my Cossetling?
You can! Send in a claim. Do note voiding is irreversible and will make the Cossetling(s) permanently unofficial even if ownership changes or another MYO slot is purchased. Voided Cossetlings are no longer bound by the Cossetling TOS but rather the respective artist(s).
