Pros
Very unique cat personalities

The Beach is usually in their territory, it has unique, rare items

Not really anything special (other than the beach) but not really anything bad about this colony

Cons
Nothing, really. Like I said, nothing special or super unique but nothing bad.

A lot of the areas in their territory look and feel exactly the same

Colony Overview
Pretty basic colony with nothing outstanding about it. The prey is average and the most common is Mouse and Bird. It has a leafy, green, forest setting.

Pros
Great, fairly unique cats

Unique marshland territory

Snake Lily, a poison plant, only grows in the wetlands and is worth a LOT

Fireflies come out one hour earlier, and there's a lot of them, greatly increasing your chances of catching a rare one

Oracle, the guard, can predict the weather accurately! Not super useful but cool

If you play at night or somewhere dark, this one has the darkest colored territory and will be easier on the eyes than the other colonies

This colony has the most turtles, and turtle shells are a rare item that is worth a lot

Cons
Farthest from the sacred temple (not a problem with the temple warp skill), it's kind of a pain to walk there though

Shopkeeper, Savannah, leaves at 1 in the afternoon. They return at 4 in the evening, no other colony's shopkeeper leaves! When Savannah is gone, you cannot buy or sell anything or look at shop items.

The territory can be difficult and frustrating to navigate with large lakes you have to walk around (unless you are a high level swimmer)

Colony Overview
The most unique colony and my personal favorite. Snake Lily plant grows exclusively in their territory, and the main prey is Frog, Fish, and Crow. They are in a lush wetlands setting.

Pros
Cats give the best gifts here ( You can get 2 or even 3 Bluejays or Cardinals often in one day)

Good territory layout, with mountains, forests, and rivers

Best colony for herbs (Forest is second place, Mystic last place)

Cons
Cats can be very boring, repeating themselves over a few days much more than in any other colony

The colony's Central doesn't (to me) give off that Cattails feel, meaning match with the more forest-y music

The Central has weird banners that just don't fit, again, with the game's theme

Not many fireflies

The waterfall in the colony's central is super annoying, constant rushing water noise

Colony Overview
The one I recommend the least. The territory is very easy to navigate. The Central needs some improvement and the cats are quite boring. The prey is average and is mostly Mouse and Rabbit. They live in a mountain setting with rocky highlands and evergreen forests, plus some large, open fields.
