Den

Cattails

Wildwood Story

See: Building Styles for different Custom Colony den appearances

The Den is the player's home (NPCs have dens too, though the player cannot go inside of it). It serves as shelter and protects them from the weather's elements. Time and hunger freezes in the den, however skill cooldowns do not freeze. After joining a colony, the colony leader will give the player a den to inhabit. The player's den starts with a single room and can be expanded by Molby after they appear in Winter, Year 1.

After Molby's introduction, they will leave a bell in the player’s den that can be used to summon them for upgrades and managing decorations. If the player has fully upgraded the den, Molby cannot be summoned again. If the player creates a custom colony or moves to another colony, all of their expansions and items will stay intact. The player's kittens and mate (if they have them) will also move with the player.

Sleeping[]

The player cat can sleep in the den's bedroom. When the player sleeps and awakes the next day, they will heal 30 HP and earn 5 XP. The player will not earn XP or HP if they had slept recently. The time the player wakes up depends on what time they went to sleep.

Sleep between 3:00 PM to 6:55 PM: Wake-up at 6:00 AM.
