The monetization in this game is generally well-received, with players appreciating the non-intrusive nature of ads, which are optional and primarily offer rewards. While there are in-app purchases available, they are not necessary for progression, allowing players to enjoy the game without feeling pressured to spend money. Overall, the game strikes a balance between monetization and user experience, with minimal ads and fair microtransactions.
βIt's not very difficult to earn in-game currency and as far as I can tell, in-game purchases are not crucial to progression, and not very expensive besides.β
βThe in-app purchases are totally optional and you don't really miss anything by avoiding them.β
βWhile in-app purchases are an option, you don't need them to play and not using them doesn't make the game any less fun.β
βThen somehow you started implementing sudden ads in the middle of the game, which is the most annoying thing developers can do.β
βYou can't collect bonus content by watching ads because the ads make the game crash before they load.β
βNow the full page ads and commercials have taken over.β

While some players find the game enjoyable despite these bugs, the overall consensus indicates that the stability problems significantly hinder the experience, making it frustrating and at times nearly unplayable. Developers are urged to address these glitches to enhance the game's performance.
βHowever, it's a lovely little game that runs great on Wi-Fi (I don't use data, so I only play at home) and serves as a very cute little time-filler.β
βNo glitches whatsoever.β
βI've lowered my review because with all its other positive attributes, this game is sadly rendered almost unplayable due to near constant freezing, glitches, and just absolutely garbage controls.β
βI want to love this game but it freezes way too often that it gets frustrating instead of relaxing, making it almost unplayable.β
βGame freezes and crashes daily.β

The gameplay is characterized by its simplicity and cuteness, making it enjoyable for short bursts, but many players find it repetitive and lacking depth over time. While the mechanics are easy to understand and the graphics are appealing, the core activities often boil down to minimal interactions, leading to a sense of monotony, especially at higher levels. Overall, the game is best suited for casual play, but players express a desire for more engaging content and improvements to enhance the experience.
βAdorable graphics, gameplay that keeps you entertained... it's not like most games of this kind where you find yourself having to wait very long to be able to progress further, this game always has something for you to do.β
βThe cats are adorable and the gameplay manages to not be overly demanding while also still being engaging, so whether you have a few hours to play or just a few minutes you'll be able to enjoy it.β
βSimple, relaxing gameplay, adorable kitties, and excellent customer service make this an easy 5πβ
βThe game doesn't offer much in terms of gameplay.β
βIt gets repetitive over time; the main gameplay consists of checking in for a few minutes every couple of hours to open boxes and pair cats with customers.β
βGameplay is extremely boring.β

βThe artwork and animation is captured so well and the overall style of the game and music is very peaceful and relaxing.β
βLove the jazzy background music, which adds to the relaxation element of the game.β
βHopefully there's more music to come; listening to it for hours can get very dull.β
βIt's a great game; however, since this new update, every time I've opened the game to play, it will freeze and the music will carry on playing in the background if I leave the app, so I then have to remove the app from recently used to stop the music.β
βGame lags a lot; it kicks me out when I give a customer a cat or I open a basket, and once that happens, it plays the music in the background of my phone.β

βI love the fact that each cat has a unique story; it makes you feel really attached to them.β
βI adore that each cat has their own little story, and that there are different personalities.β
βI'm not big into games that have no story, so for me it wouldn't be much fun anyway.β
βGameplay is lame, repetitive and there's virtually no story.β
βI was hoping for a storyline and helping characters adopt cats, but there is really no story or anything to it.β

βπ»πΈπ Edit: Recently encountered a hilarious glitch... sometimes, two of the cats will try to sleep on the same bed at the same time, and if they're positioned right, it looks like they're mating πππ Please do not fix this, it doesn't cause any problems and I think it's so funny πΉπΉπΉβ

Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and time-consuming, especially as they progress to higher levels where tasks take longer to complete. While some appreciate the cute artwork and non-intrusive ads, many express frustration over the repetitive nature of grinding for collectibles and the pressure to spend real money for faster progress. Overall, the grinding can detract from the enjoyment, making the game feel more like a chore than a fun experience.
βThe higher you get, the longer everything takes. It's definitely a downside; I ended up deleting the butterfly one because it got tedious. The bird one and fish one are as well, and the cat cafe seems to be getting there quicker than the others.β
βAfter a while, it gets tedious and excruciatingly hard to obtain the cats during the special events without paying for additional items.β
βIt begins to feel like a 9-5 minimum wage job, grinding for worthless collectibles, or simply use real cash for buy-to-win loot.β

βThe cats are adorable, and the overall atmosphere of the game is relaxing.β
βMy little sister (age 8) and I really like this game; all the cats are cute, and it doesn't have that 'pay to win' atmosphere.β
βI usually don't have the patience for time-gate games that nickel and dime you, but there's such a chilled-out atmosphere in this game that I see no reason to be pressured to rush.β
βThis makes the game a bit stressful and takes away from the relaxing and cute atmosphere it tries to cultivate.β
