So while chatting on the site today, someone was logged out, and the subject of cookies came up. This gave me the idea for a new item, Expired Cookie.

Currently, we have to keep food out of our food pens if we want a pet to go to the grave to use COTU, or get the FA for dying/resurrecting. The Expired Cookie, when fed to the selected creatu, would prevent it from eating from the food pen. This would allow for more convenient gameplay because you would be able to stock your food pen and feed your profile pets automatically, while still being able to easily use the dying aspect of the game. 

What shop do you think this should be sold in? I was thinking possibly Black Market, with a quantity of 3-7 each time it stocks, and a price range of 250k-1M.

I also think an indicator on the info popup, or some sort of overlay on the image of the pet that has been fed the cookie, would be necessary to prevent someone unknowingly starving a creatu they bought or were gifted that was previously fed the cookie. Or, perhaps the cookie's effect is only temporary, and lasts say a week. This would mean feeding 3-4(?) cookies, one per week, to get it into the grave. Or an alert generated to your account once per week maybe. What are your thoughts?

Please post any ideas or thoughts you have!

I would like it if it was a temporary effect so that your pet can still eat after you've gotten the desired effect (and it won't somehow mess with the potion of death's value).

But anyway I think it's a good idea as an alternative to the potion of death :3

Most definitely temporary, yes! There is a sort of clock mechanism around the workings of dying, so I'm thinking the "clock" can be reset once resurrected.

I actually forgot about the potion of death, whoops! I still like this idea though.

Since the potion of death is sold in the black market, perhaps this can be a rare bakery item instead?

It's a good idea.

Although, would it be necessary if we added additional functionality to the Food Pen that allowed users to include/exclude pet locations from using their food pens? This idea was discussed in the "Limiting Pets" thread, I believe.

I was thinking this might be easier in the short-term, since the other idea could potentially take a looooong time if it were implemented.

I personally like the other idea of choosing what pets to feed,  itd be more efficient especially having a load of pets which most people do. If you have a lot of pets you want to die that could be costly having to feed them 3-4 times each, and only being able to purchase a few at a time. Plus we do already have something that instantly makes a pet die. And later on if choosing is implemented it would make the new cookie kinda pointless. Potions of death are always going to be alright though because they're instant. Right now having pets die isn't a huge concern of people that I know of? And if they do want a COTU effect Potion Of Deaths aren't that hard to get. Adding onto the choosing who gets fed, I'm not sure it'd take that long to implement? Especially if its just for profile pets for the time being.
