QUIZ - Results! πŸ’›

[h3]Dear Friends! πŸ’›[/h3]

[h3]The big day is almost here - July 23rd, 2025. The moment we've all been waiting for… the release of Animal Shelter 2! πŸŽ‰πŸΎ[/h3]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2658510/Animal_Shelter_2/

As you may remember, not long ago we posted a quiz to determine the winning team in the epic showdown: Dog Team VS Cat Team 🐢🐱

And finally… we have the answer to the question we have all been asking: Which team is bigger? πŸ€”
Without further ado… the winner is: Cat Team! 🐱🎊

This team received a whopping 66.1% of all your votes!

Which means… Animal Shelter 2 will be full of paws, purrs, and feline vibes galore! 😻✨






[h3]But of course - even though the Cats won this round - true animal lovers never choose just one side πŸ’[/h3]

We love them all: every wagging tail, every curious whisker, every animal soul πŸ€— 🐾

We can't wait to welcome you to the shelter tomorrow to rescue, to care, and to fall in love all over again. πŸ’•




See you tomorrow!
Animal Shelter 2 Team
