Eternal Youth

Eternal Youth locks your cat into its kitten form permanently. Kittens in Mewgenics have different stat scaling, smaller sprites, and unique interactions compared to adult cats. This disorder prevents the cat from ever growing up, which affects its base stats, equipment interactions, and possibly its available abilities. The flavor text "You are a kitten... forever!" captures the essence of this unusual condition.

Eternal Youth is heritable and can be passed to offspring through breeding. It can also appear through events or be applied with a Disorder Syringe from the Organ Grinder. This is one of the more lore-interesting disorders in the game, as it permanently alters the cat's life cycle. Since kittens may have different stat distributions or size-based interactions (such as being harder to hit or fitting through smaller spaces), the disorder could provide unexpected tactical advantages depending on how the game handles kitten-specific mechanics.

The strategic value of Eternal Youth depends heavily on what mechanical differences exist between kittens and adults. If kittens have reduced stats but better evasion or unique abilities, this disorder could be part of an unconventional dodge-focused build. If the kitten form is purely cosmetic with no stat impact, then Eternal Youth is essentially a neutral disorder that does not help or hurt, making it a reasonable slot-filler to block worse disorders. Experiment with it to determine the exact gameplay implications before deciding whether to keep or replace it.
