This Mewgenics Tink Upgrades Guide shows you how to get information from Tink in Mewgenics. Mewgenics is not just about putting two strong cats in the same room and hoping for the best. The game hides a lot of useful systems that help you manage bloodlines, track families, and organize your growing house. If you learn how to use these tools properly, breeding becomes much more controlled and much less chaotic. This is where Tink comes into play.
Tink Upgrades Guide – Mewgenics
At the start of the game, many important details about your cats are hidden. Because of this, sending 10 kittens to Tink as early as possible is very important. To do this, select a cat and drag it into the garbage can on the left side of the screen. This will open the map, and then you can click on Tink’s location at the bottom right to send the cat there.
As you continue offering kittens to Tink, you unlock new information in stages. These upgrades reveal things like base stats, relationships, mood, libido, sexuality, and whether a cat is inbred.
All Tink Upgrades
Below are the rewards you receive from Tink and what each one unlocks.
- Information To Help Breed Cats
The first time you give cats to Tink, you unlock detailed breeding stats. After this, when you open a cat’s profile, you will see both base stats and bonus stats.
Base stats are the natural values, such as strength and dexterity. These are the only stats passed down to offspring. Bonus stats are temporary increases that only affect the current cat and do not carry over to kittens.
For breeding, base stats are far more important than bonus stats. On the info screen, you can clearly see the difference between modified numbers and true base numbers.
- A Way to Check a Cat’s Ancestry
After offering cats to Tink a second time, you unlock ancestry details. This allows you to see which cats are closely related. You can check this by looking at the smiley face icon on the cat’s information page. Reviewing a cat’s family tree helps you avoid breeding close relatives.
Breeding within the same family leads to inbreeding problems. Over time, this causes weaker kittens, worse stats, and a higher chance of birth defects. It’s best to avoid keeping closely related cats together if you plan to breed them.
- Gaydar
When you send cats to Tink for the third time, you unlock information about a cat’s sexuality and libido. This tells you whether a cat is straight, gay, or bisexual.
This detail appears as a heart-shaped icon on the cat’s profile. Sexual orientation is shown with small flags (for gay or bisexual), while heterosexual cats have no flag displayed.
Cats that are gay cannot produce kittens. Checking this information helps you understand which cats are compatible for breeding.
- Something to Help Organize Your Cats
On the fourth visit, Tink unlocks a feature that helps you organize your House. You can now click on cats and assign them different shapes.
This makes it easier to separate cats based on their traits, roles, or breeding plans. As your collection grows with new strays and kittens, managing them can become confusing. Using shapes helps you clearly identify which cats are meant for breeding and which are not.
- Understanding a Cat’s Personality
After the fifth offering, you gain access to personality and mood information. This tells you more about how your cat behaves.
You can view this by hovering over the smiley icon on the cat’s info page. It will show whether the cat is aggressive or calm. Aggressive cats are more likely to cause problems, especially if the room’s Comfort level is low.
- Understanding a Cat’s Relationship
The sixth time you send cats to Tink, you unlock relationship details. On the cat’s information page, near the inbreeding icon, you can see which cats they like or dislike.
Relationships play an important role in breeding. Cats that bond together are more likely to reproduce. However, if another cat interferes, it can create rivalry. Rivalries may lead to fights and disrupt your breeding plans.
- 25 Coins
When you offer cats to Tink for the seventh time, you no longer receive major new information. Instead, Tink rewards you with 25 coins. After this point, he promises to continue giving 25 coins each time you send him cats.
