[Example - not part of the hunt!]


Hobby Zone has seen an influx in black cats for spooky week! Can you find all the hidden black cats and unscramble their secret message? Each clue will lead you to a different black cat, note these cats may appear in the original thread or in a post on the first page of a thread. Each black cat will have a letter toward the final two word phrase! Find all the cats, unscramble the phrase, and fill out *this form*!


You can ask for a hint, but don't spoil others’ fun!

We'll share the locations when our treasure hunt is done!

Find them all quickly or simply peruse.

So without further ado, here come the clues!


The first cat can’t be missed, where you’ll find a member list,

It doesn’t want to miss events, better get a Tag with a twist.


~🖤~


You found number one, but the job’s just begun!

The next one is found in a thread about some villains we find fun!


~🖤~


Now you’re up to two, how clever of you!

The next may be found in a thread discovering pics of things that grew!


~🖤~


You’ve found three, thankfully not in a tree!

The next cat is found in a thread about favourite poetry?


~🖤~


Okay that makes four, how many more?

The next could be hiding in a thread with cats galore!


~🖤~


So you found cat five, you’ve really got drive.

Search the thread about a day for dance, where our next cat will thrive.


~🖤~


That makes six, the next one knows tricks!

You can find them in a thread about playing with yarn and a pair of sticks?


~🖤~


Number seven is found, how does that sound?

The next cat is in a lazy day thread just lying around.


~🖤~


And now number eight, you’re doing so great!

Our next cat is reading about how mental health is something to celebrate!


~🖤~


So here’s number nine, feline quite fine.

Ten is learning why colouring is great even if outside the line.


~🖤~


Okay that’s ten, the next is seeking zen!

They can be found looking through hobby journals again.


~🖤~


Eleven cats now, all I can say is wow!

Another looks for pasta, though do not ask me how!


~🖤~


Twelve wrapped up, time to fill your cup!

The final cat is found simply by looking up.

This letter may be on the nose, or somewhere near to that.

The final feline is not quite the same, but it’s still a special cat.

When you find this letter, which would be rather nice.

Please just keep in mind you’ll need to use it twice!!


~🖤~



Good luck with your search! Our spooky week of fun is just beginning so keep coming back for more!
