“As a cat-lover, I would like to just sit down and pet the cat in house mode, instead of story mode.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game enjoyable initially, but it quickly becomes tedious due to the constant need to manage cat care, particularly with frequent litter box cleaning. Many suggest that allowing players to adjust the frequency of these tasks could enhance the experience.
“The game is fun for about an hour and then just gets tedious taking care of the cats.”
“It would be nice if players could adjust the frequency of the poop. Cleaning the litter tray becomes somehow tedious because they are always pooping.”
