A kids' RPG with horses?

Someone's been listening to Fear the Boot...

I haven't, actually - I'm bucking the market indicators!

Did they have the same idea?

Blue Rose is a romantic fantasy rpg that included sentient animals as playable races, included were the statistics for a sentient horse.

Blue Rose was the precursor to the True20 system. If you are familiar with True20 there are only a couple of minor differences between the two systems.

Or you could take another tack- run a game with a system you're comfortable with and just excise the stuff you don't want to use all that often. As the GM, you'd control the amount of icky stuff, after all.

(Umbran) proposed that you could run a campaign in which the players PCs are all animals that we would normally consider to be supporting NPCs- familiars, animal companions, special mounts, etc.

One of their number is "The Annointed One" and they have all been called to gather around these humanoids in order to achieve their goals. Essentially, the humans become the companions.

He's still young, and doesn't know it yet, but the kitten is actually The Golden Cat, a prophesied cat hero who has his own quest, and will save the world for all catkind. There will be a string of events throughout the campaign that the party will thoroughly misunderstand, where the cat's adventures impinge upon the human world.

Just like a human hero, along the way he'll pick up his own companions that start showing up and hanging around (these may include any mounts or Animal Companions the PCs may have - they think they have Human Companions...). You get the idea. One always talks about how the PCs are not the only adventuring party in the game world, right? Well, in a magical world, why do they all have to be human?

Read Tad Williams' Tailchaser's Song, or Gabriel King's The Wild Road and The Golden Cat for references.

Just substitute horses for kitties!

I reccomend TOON the Cartoon RPG by SJ Games
Its fast, easy and you can make it as goofy or easy going as you want, and your players can do almost anything they want.

They interviewed someone who was involved with the CCG a while ago, and it's been an occasional recurring joke since then.
