TinyCat 8

They are the embodiment of ikigai
when it comes to the internet and libraries.
They can uplift your mood on the fly,
so long as their fur doesn't make you sneeze.

They're clever, quick, and can sleep all day,
they're magic and groomed to perfection
a reader's most fitting companion, they say,
and the key that unlocks this collection.

54 SandraArdnas : #8 is very simple, don't overthink.

Apparently, I'm way overthinking this because I cannot find it anywhere!

>6 DJMcLartyFamily: it's the animal you're certainly thinking of, now think of the common places you'd organize info related to one subject

Hi, I'm still stuck on #8. I think I know the correct animal, but I looked through so many categories already and still haven't found it. Can anyone offer up another hint? It's the only one I haven't gotten yet.

>7 SHstorytime: I've checked many places...and I still am missing it. Is there another hint you can offer that will lead me to the right page/section?

>6 DJMcLartyFamily: I have the same problem, also.

>9 CrissyAnnCroissette: Have another look at >1 humouress: and maybe read the post on General Strategies which is pinned at the top of the group page. It’s not always a book.

>12 humouress: Thank you, I know it isn't always a book. I've found all the others. I've already looked at the General Strategies posted above also. I feel foolish for still missing something; but thank you very much for trying to help me.
I guess I will just have to be satisfied with getting 9. It was a really fun and challenging hunt. I think it's only the 2nd one I've done.
Maybe next time I will do better . :-)

>13 CrissyAnnCroissette: It’s actually one of the easier answers (at least, I found it so).

>13 CrissyAnnCroissette: I did overthink as well so I tried to think simple and it worked. Think of the animal butadd "s" to make it plural and do atagsearch.

>15 tammyhennig: I had searched in that area several times before. I don't know why the tiny cat never came up. It might be due to my internet connection, because I had gone a few times in the same area for Clue 7 until the tiny cat appeared.
( I live in a rural area and recently switched my ISP, but I believe we need new wifi routers as well. )

I was driving myself crazy by searching tags reviews, lists, groups, posts , etc. The only other thing I think may have happened is perhaps I was on my page while searching tags instead of the Main Page search.
Duh me.
Anyway, thank you so much.

>14 humouress: I had searched in that area many times and never had a tiny cat come up on the page. I did use the plural form of the word. . I have been having issues with my internet connection as well.
I drove myself crazy searching so many areas.
I did have trouble with another clue ; I had to hit page refresh till that one came up.
The other thing that I think I may have done wrong is that I may have searched that category from my own page instead of the main one.
Anyway thanks again
& I am happy I finally found 10!!!

197 Charon07 : For #8, you’re looking for a tag page. It’s one plural word. It’s the species of animal most apt for this hunt.
