***Do NOT Take This Cat Home***

It's your day off, but the weather is really bringing you down.

Among other things. 

But... you're drawn to the distant sound of something calling out to you...

You follow it to a dark, lonely alley. And at the back of the alley, in a cardboard box...


...is a cat.

A very cute cat.

What will you do?

Will you selfishly ignore it and go enjoy your day off?

Will you befriend it only to abandon it anyway?

Or...

...Will you take it home with you? Surely you will, right?

Right. Who could say no to  that face~?

I absolutely loved this game! I was expecting a fun little game to pass the time, and instead got a life-changing masterpiece. I loved it, and almost cried at the final ending :')

I streamed this game for a little bit, it was the second game I played and I think I got one of the endings.

this game is peak cinema and im making a video essay about it.

(+7)

i want you to know I'm loading this with the explicit goal to take that cat home

Deleted 4 days ago

Oh no.

39??!!

i'm actually ASTONISHED as to how this game is free to play ! seeing it in the psychological horror tag had me super confused because ... its js a cute kitty, but playing the game made me so hooked in the story and it was genuinely such an amazing metaphor all the way till the end. such an amazing game, and the cutest yet fascinating graphics <3

(+1)

This is honestly such an amazing game. An amazing story, a very interesting concept, and a very cute and satisfying ending. I was blown away by the entire game and it's truly like finding gold dug deep into the ground. Amazing game, totally would play again for the first time if I could :3

I've played it and thought it was incredible. The designs are very well done and the story is very interesting. Plus, it's great to see that the game is already available in Portuguese (BR) and Italian! That's awesome.

Spanish would also be a great addition. If you need it, I can take care of the translation.

Adorei esse jogo e gostei como ele quebra a ยจquarta paredeยจcom o nosso personagem e adoraria agradecer o George Ribeiro por ter traduzido esse jogo para o portuguรชs. Que bom que o noso personagem nรฃo ficou traumatizado com gatos depois do que ele sofreu por causa daquilo que nรฃo podemos chamar de gato.

Occasionally you see those games on itch.io that are like, "What?? WHAT?? IT CAN BE FREE??? NO! I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THIS! IT'S TOO HIGH-QUALITY! THIS NEEDS TO ACTUALLY COST MONEY!!!!"

This, right here, is one of those games. Play this game.

(If this is confusing, no, I'm not hating. I'm saying it's a really good game.)

(+1)

how do you reset the game files to start fresh?

I think they posted a guide on the download page?

I found it thank you!

I remain a cat person.

"Hi there! Iโ€™m a huge fan of this genre and your game looks amazing. Iโ€™d love to help you bring it to the Spanish-speaking community with a native translation. Please feel free to contact me at [damiantranslations@outlook.com] so we can talk about working together. Cheers!"

i knew i was a dog person

Am playing currectly right now and wow its a good horror game :0- I love the twists

Hi!
In march of this year I commented to say how much I loved the nuance and layers of this game and that I was starting a creative writing course and really hoped to write something that captured me like this does.
I'm still working on the second part of that, but I have written a review for how deeply touched I was by this game to go in my school's magazine.
If you're interested in seeing it, let me know!
(i saw on blue sky that you're struggling w social media and mental health, immensely relatable, as someone who is entirely off social media for that reason. hope you're well or getting there all the same)

(+1)

Super fun the different paths kept me playing and wanting to know more. I never knew how an ending would play out!


(+2)

really loved it ) dont usually play games with so many endings but  if they are with cats ...

Hey I'm back here! I have an idea.

What about making an ending "0 lives left"? You remember the one where we kill it and get the message what it has still 8 lives? What will happen if we kill it on the same ending 8 times more? I think that would be a cool thing.

(+1)

They should make merchandise of this beauty!!! By the way, I loved the game

 "I've already played it 10 times and I never get tired of it."

I usually don't really play games that have multiple endings, but I can't pass up on a cute kitty!! Really entertaining and creative game.

Loving it so far. Let's hope people want me to play it more because it's definitely my kinda game lol.
