Patrols usually consist of a small group of cats exploring a particular area of the territory. By sending your cats on patrol, they have a chance to pick up useful items or find a new friend! There is always a chance they'll run into trouble with a new enemy and get injured, however.
A maximum of three (3) cats may participate in one patrol at a time.
All of the cats participating in the patrol must belong to the same group.
Cats with the following statuses may not participate in patrols: pregnant, elder, deceased or legacy.
Cats must be of adolescent or adult age to participate.
Minimum Requirements:
Art: halfbody (content aware) with a simple BG.
Lit: 500 words.
!! By including more cats, your chances of a successful patrol with better rewards are increased.

Each patrol comes with its own challenges and possible rewards. Some are super helpful for grinding runes, while others have a higher chance of finding cats or other items.
There are various types of patrols you can send cats on. They all have varying injury and illness risks, and certain items can only be found on their corresponding patrol type.
When patrols are uneventful, nothing is brought back.
