Medical Watch
4 sick living pets2 injured living pets0 quarantine assignments1 rooms needing care0 herbs on shelves
- One or more quarantine rooms have sanitation, bedding, dryness, containment, or lingering outbreak pressure to clean up.
- Medical Watch now reflects the overhauled healer hub, quarantine room state, herb supplies, active cases, and borrowed-healer request pressure.
Raids & thefts:
Tracks in the mud didn’t always lead back home. A total of 2 raid or theft events were recorded this week.
Death Care Watch
340 unresolved remains302 tainted/runoff risk308 aged remains29 handled this week33 neglect incidents
- Deceased Care reports unresolved bodies, taint/runoff pressure, cleanup relief, and incident follow-up without treating dead pets as living den members.
- Memorial reporting uses death/remains records so former-owner context survives even when the pet record becomes system-owned.
Fishing + Ecology Watch
3 casts this week1 caught this week1 basins needing care1 predator scent at pools10 stressed waters
- Fishing Watch now reports shoreline use, catch handling backlog, pool care, predator scent, and ecology-rest signals.
- The fish art/gallery work stays connected to live catch handling instead of hiding catches as plain inventory text.
Defense + Aftermath Watch
0 active sieges0 open aftermath reports23 assigned keepers
- Defense Watch now reflects keeper coverage, active raid pressure, wall damage signals, and aftermath closeout work.
- Perimeter Keeper eligibility still belongs to the battle/defense pages; the newsletter only reports the weekly state.
Stores + Pulse Watch
322 near spoilage94 spoiled stacks24710 active Pulse notices34 resolved this week
- Stores Watch now knows about spoilage windows, dried stacks, compost readiness, and the active/resolved Pulse lifecycle.
- Players who hide Pulse for themselves do not erase the colony-wide problem; the newsletter watches the underlying saved notice state.
