The Hearthstone Team Has Borkers and Kittehs - January 2019
In an important update this afternoon, the Hearthstone team has released the January 2019 edition of the Hearthstone Pupdate.
Quote from BlizzardA lot of magic, machinations, and memeing go on behind closed doors at the Hearthstone development team. An assistant (or several) is often required. So without further ado, meet the good boys and girls of the Hearthstone development team!
Administrative
Kippen is Organized since he is on the Administrative team! If you need proof of that, just look at how neatly he keeps his tail tucked in when he’s lying down.
Production
Toby helps wrangle the team up and keep them in line so production moves like clockwork. He’s also really good at math.
Art
Mini Golden Retriever Harley helps with the art outsourcing when necessary. Otherwise, he is busy with the most important task of the day: napping.
Mishu brings a different perspective to things since she’s a cat, and that’s helpful for projects that she and Harley collaborate on. She also wants you to remember that out of all the cats in Hearthstone, she is Best Cat.
Business
Gary works on Hearthstone business things. Don’t let the fluff fool you—he is one shrewd businessdog.
Design
Leela lives far from the office and only comes in for special projects with the design team. Leela staunchly believes that there’s no such thing as a bad idea, which is why she continues to insist on a “Beg for Treats” emote option.
Engineering
When it comes to Hearthstone, this dog might lose a little, but he Wins-a-Ton. Keeping everyone company in the Engineering department, Winston’s latest project is discovering how to automate behind-the-ear scratches.
Business Intelligence
With the perfect name to match his shining disposition, Sunny brightens our days with his keen insights into all things business intelligence.
Quality Assurance
Nimbus can usually be found hard at work testing the game in the QA department. Gary and Nimbus have a long-standing friendly rivalry over who is the better cloud.
These are just some of the pets who support Hearthstone behind the scenes! Want to see more Hearthstone pupdates? Let us know on Twitter or Facebook!
Slow day, huh?
Who cares...
Where are Dex and Vey ?
2 cats and 7 dogs, really Blizzard? Have you heard about workplace diversity? #catlivesmatter
Forget cats, where are my birbs and sneks? :)
Would you settle for a ferret?
I want a sugar glider.
i want a rock to wind a piece of string around
Finally some good news!
Yes, because it costs so much to ask employees for a picture of their pet.

What has gone wrong in your life that you have to bash on people for posting about what matters to them? Oh and the individuals running hearthpwn are not blizzard developers. So you're bitching on the wrong website.
This should be like church and state... let one not interfere with the other... hearthstone is work, pets are private time... dont let one intervene with the other...
This post just seems like they are giving us the puppy eyes as they have nothing else to give us in game...
give us a new game mode, a new format, tournament mode etc etc... but no... they give us their pets...
We care about the game, not about your dogs... (sure some are cute, but thats just distractment)
I guess one of these dogs pissed in this guy's Cheerios.
You must be fun at parties.
We live in a society

Man, these puns are pretty RUFF!
tournament mode died for this.
If this is true, it was totally worth it!
Then it died for a noble cause.
