This is an exceedingly simple string replace for an exceedingly horrible EAxian error. If you've ever had a pet run away, and if you are an incurable pedant like me, you'll have noticed that the little popup says:


With this fix, it says:


I know! It's amazing! A miraculous turn-around that will change the world! Admittedly I've only actually had a pet run away once, and testing this and getting screenshots took hours because I have no idea how to get rid of the bleedin' animals without the police beating me to it. But having actually seen that popup in a dream the other night, I figured I might as well waste some time fixing it.

The second file is the SPACE PONIES version, which also replaces the second instance of the pet's name with "them", just because it flows better that way. Pictures seem unnecessary, but if you're not sure what I'm referring to, this is what it'll look like:
"Uh oh, it looks like Otis has run away from home! You can use the phone to report them missing."
No gender-specific strings, I'm afraid.

Obviously, this requires pets. If for some insane reason you happen to have another string replace for this popup, it'll probably be overriden by this one, because the filename starts with W and so will probably be loaded last. And don't install them both, k? That'd be a waste of 8Kb, and would result in grammarcat biting you for being ironically unintelligent.

Enjoy,
Your friendly neighbourhood stray.


(Note: ToU seems a bit pointless here. If you wanna pretend you made this, feel free. It's not exactly rocket science. I challenge you to find the string in objects.package though; took me all the joys of mass exporting, mass renaming file extensions to .txt, and a windows search...)
