There are **8 standard volumes**: XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, and 4XL,\
and **2 special "flowered" volumes**: 5XL and 6XL, offering rarer reward potential.
Transformation & Rewards

* $CATKN *(Event)*
* Honey Pots (Yellow, Blue, Red or Purple, sizes XS to L)
**Transformation Time**\

**Transformation Costs**\
Once the countdown is over, a small amount of $CATKN (a base cost) is required to collect the rewards.
