Feline Mammary Hyperplasia (FMH)

To preface, if you do not support this suggestion please comment why. Just pressing the button does not give me any idea of what to change and is generally unhelpful.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
What is it?

a benign condition that causes one or more of a cat's mammary glands to enlarge. It's usually seen in younger cats, but can also affect cats of any age or gender if they are receiving progestogen medication. These cats can be mistaken for nursing cats, but the mammaries do not contain milk.

How severe is it?

FMH can range drastically in size, severity, and amount of mammaries swollen. My research and idea is based on a cat with 2-4 mammaries swollen, and for lack of a better way to describe it, an AA cup size on a cat.
(Note: please look up pictures at your own discretion. While most cases are benign, some are not and are very upsetting to see. The images Google shows are some of the most severe forms of this and are very upsetting to see for some.)

What cats does it appear in?

Young, sexually intact females, pregnant or pseudopregnant queens, and cats of either gender receiving progestogen medication

(Note to disregard mentions of progestogen as lions in the wild usually aren’t on progestogen medication lol. This will just affect female lions if it becomes an actual thing, which I doubt will happen.)

Why would you want this implemented?

Because one of my cats has it! :3 i’ve been thinking about mutation ideas for a bit and thought FMH would be interesting to see! (Note: My cat is perfectly healthy, this condition does not affect her movement or any other aspects of her life.)

Is this even a mutation?

By definition, FMH is not a mutation. Rather it is caused by hormonal stimulation, which can naturally occur in females.

Then why are you suggesting it?

Because it is a condition that affects cats and I think it’d be neat! FMH would be an AMP (Adult Mutation Present) and I think it would fit in well. That may just be my opinion, though. I’d love to see some more variations in AMPS as opposed to mostly mane mutations and I thought this could be a good one to throw in the mix!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
How would it work in game?

FMH would affect fertility, but would mostly just be for fun flavor texts! I think a pose would be fun, though I can’t draw so i’ll try and explain it best I can!

Jolly pose mixed with Nesting pose, lioness lying on her back tilted slightly to expose undercarriage, mammaries shown similarly to Nesting pose.

Flavor texts!

I would love any ideas for these as this mutation will be mostly flavor texts based!

“You see a cub walk up to [LIONESS] and ask if she’s given birth, and if so, can he play with the cubs? Hey, you’re not supposed to ask a lady that!”

“You ask [LIONESS] to come help you with something real quick. She smiles and pads over, her undercarriage swinging.”

“A nursing lioness remarks to [LIONESS] that they don’t know how she handles the extra weight all the time. Hah. Funny.”

“You see [LIONESS] lying down and grumbling as she picks brambles, grass, and other debris out of her underbelly. She complains that it hangs too low and gets all dirty, ruining her usually perfect fur, as she puts it.”

I would love some feedback and ideas for flavor texts!

Note: please look up pictures at your own discretion. While most cases are benign, some are not and are very upsetting to see. The images Google shows are some of the most severe forms of this and are very upsetting to see for some. Not only are these images upsetting, they are wildly inaccurate. If it is wanted I can search and provide some accurate and non disturbing examples.
