Skunk.

Coquette / Stereotypical feminine vibes (pink, cutesy, dresses or skirts, ribbons/bows, long hair)

Accessories: nerdy round glasses, ribbons/bows, lace, jewelry, flowers

I'm cool with non genetically accurate markings/coats. And dog markings/coats on cat characters, etc.

Any shade of brown from beige or tan to dark brown (especially paired with light pink, light blue, or lavender)

Neapolitan (brown + pink + cream/white)

Pinks

Purples

Pastels 

Pastel galaxy or pastel rainbow

Silver/light gray

Silver + Gold/Tan

Black and maroon

Black and purple

Undesired/Dislikes:

Orange/ginger/red cats, especially orange tabbies. There are some orange cats that catch my eye but you can assume most of the time I am not into orange kitties. I do like torties but can be picky about them.

Chocolate golden, blue golden, lilac golden… etc.

Feral characters with fully solid colored faces/heads. For example, a cat with a full white face but markings on the body. I want their face to have some distinguishing markings so that if I draw a headshot they’re not just any white cat. Or if they have a solid colored face, I would want them to have unique eyes or face scars or something.

Spiky fur.

Horror, gore, uncanny, multiple eyes, extra limbs, drool, heavy scarring, etc.

Robots.

Nurse/Doctor aesthetic.

Characters with object heads.

Webcore. Vaporwave.

Super simple designs that are just one solid color without white markings or darker/lighter points.

Lykoi, Sphynx, other hairless cats or dogs. Don’t worry. I love them irl and think they’re cute. I just prefer my characters to be the opposite of hairless XD

Reptiles or insect characters. Again I like them irl I’m just not sure what to do with them as characters. Though I may consider snakes.

Chow chow, Shar pei, most terriers.

Major eye strain colors.

Orange and green together.

Yellow and red together.

Bright yellow and bright green together.
