I wouldn't have thought so since I doubt any others know what the source code looked like to begin with. Plus, even if it was possible to mimic and/or find the source code within the game, I think the staff would prefer not to find it as they don't have the game-owner's permission, even if they do have control over the rest of the game and site. Had Kovu given them permission before his departure, then maybe there would have been updates and such, but since he left and took the source code with him, I think everyone just took that as Kovu didn't want the game changed any further and so the game was left in its current state.
Not that the game's state is terrible, it just lacks some updates that some people may find a great addition to the game, such as custom paw size as the topic suggests. The game isn't in ruins without it though, so in my eyes, all is good and well. c: ~ I think we should just be grateful that Kovu didn't take the entire game down before he left.
