When this overlay template fits

Creators adding an animated pet overlay to OBS, Streamlabs, TikTok LIVE Studio, PRISM Live Studio, or XSplit.

Stream layouts where the mascot should stay visible between alerts instead of appearing once and disappearing.

Corner placement, chat-side placement, intermission scenes, and cozy mascot reactions.

Layout sample

OBS layout notes

Source size

720 × 900 or 800 × 1000: Use a 4:5 Browser Source so the pet, reactions, and speech bubble have enough vertical space.

Background

Transparent: Keep the source transparent so the pet sits naturally over the live scene.

Placement

Bottom corner or beside chat: Avoid covering gameplay, facecam, subtitles, or important alert widgets.

Trigger rules

Suggested event mapping

Follow

Clap or wave

A low-intensity reaction works well for frequent viewer arrivals.

Gift, Bits, or subscription

Heart or cheer

Use a warmer reaction for support moments that deserve a visible thank-you.

Raid or high-value gift

Dance or surprise

Reserve the biggest motion for moments that should pull attention.
