The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of ads that interrupt gameplay, often appearing even in menus and settings. Many players express frustration over the ineffectiveness of paid options to remove ads, with some reporting continued ad interruptions despite purchasing ad-free versions. Additionally, the high costs associated with in-app purchases and subscriptions are seen as exploitative, particularly for a game aimed at children, leading to accusations of it being a cash grab.

“I love this app because it has no ads and no problem by using this app.”
“It's so not laggy and almost no ads; it's great!”
“The free version of this game is flooded with ads to the point where doing anything is unusable, can't use the AR mode as advertised without paying, and the premium version of the game is so ridiculously expensive that you could take care of a real cat with the amount they're charging you.”
“We paid the subscription fee, but still, we're bombarded by ads!”
“My child accidentally installed this game from an advertisement and bought a weekly subscription for an exorbitant amount.”
