I have all of my cats pastured outside in a 3x3 square, yet there have been no kittens. What's up with that?

E:
Quite a few puppies, though.

Anyone have experience with the 'No Liason. How curious..' message?

I've googled a bit and it seems it comes only when no one in your civ is left alive is left to be liason or when the liason is killed enroute.

I've had it come for 3 years in a row now without ever seeing one since start. I don't think it could be the first of those reasons as my civ is quite healthy with 7 barons of sub-factions within my civ. A bit unlikey that a liason would be killed enroute 3 times in a row when the caravans seem to come well-manned and intact is it not? Even envoys to Leonidas would have had higher survival rate.

...
One of my Dwarfs have this odd dream. Have you ever seen such a dream? And how do I fullfill that dream?

Yeah, I've seen it before.  It's one of the dreams that can't be realized yet, unfortunately.  Not every dream can be fulfilled right now: mastering a skill and having a family are examples of dreams that can be realized now.

That doesn't answer my question. It's all OK.

Your issue is probably caused by the massive outstanding bug - i.e. that 25% of animals are reproductively unviable.

Which is in short caused by something like "your tomcats are interested only in other tomcats" thus no kittens.

No. As the wiki page clearly states, 20% of critters will not reproduce due to "commitment issues" (i.e. they are not willing to marry). Only 5% of critters will not reproduce because of their sexuality.

1)Will embarking near a Necromancer tower (or more) ensure the siege amount of the previous versions for, well... let's say 10 years. Are these sieges coming regularly? I heard that many times they are visiting only once, and never come back ever, is this true?

2)Will embarking in a world with ONLY goblin civilizations alive ensure the siege amount of the previous versions? (Of course, right in front of their towns)

Just had my first dwarf fall into a depression. What is a good way to bring them out of it, assuming it's possible?

There is currently a minor problem in that the veteran demons fighting in the corpse factory have failed to die in the 2 year battle and have become legendary unkillable gods of war. I may have misjudged this possible outcome.

Thankfully it seems though that female egglayers will still lay even if they have issues.

Quick question for quick reply, probably been ask before a thousand times: Is it planned to lead sieges one day? Like designate  dwarfs with siege weapons, war animals and supplies to attack another site?

My dorfs are not placing bones, tissues, etc in its respective piles. Are they sensitive to dead things or somethings?.
