About Cat Simulator

Cat Simulator is the quieter half of what we make. There is no timer to beat and nothing to fall off: you adopt a kitten, and the game is about looking after it — food, water, a bath when it needs one, a nap, and a bit of play so it does not get bored.

It is our newest game and still early in its release cycle, which is worth knowing before you install: the App Store version is at 0.1.60 and the feature set is still growing. The Android version arrived on Google Play in August 2026, so that listing is newer still.

How Cat Simulator plays

The kitten has a small set of needs shown as meters. Feeding, washing and playing top them up, and each activity is a short tap-based mini-game rather than a menu. Between activities you can dress the kitten and decorate its room with items you unlock as you keep visiting.

Sessions are meant to be short. There is no energy system that punishes you for closing the app, and nothing decays fast enough to make a day away feel like a penalty.

What you can do

  • Adopt and raise a kitten with feeding, washing, sleeping and play routines
  • Short tap-based mini-games rather than menu management
  • Outfits and accessories to unlock
  • A room you can decorate as you progress
  • Designed for short daily visits rather than long sessions

Devices and platforms

iPhone, iPad and iPod touch · Android phones and tablets. Pet care works offline. Some features need a connection.

Getting started

Deal with whichever meter is lowest first — the kitten reacts to being hungry or dirty more than to being under-played. After that, play is what unlocks most of the early rewards, so it is worth a couple of minutes even when nothing is flashing.

Frequently asked questions

Is Cat Simulator on Android?+

Yes. The Android version went live on Google Play in August 2026, under the same title — Cat Simulator - My Virtual Pet — and the same publisher, Brainytrainee Ltd. The listing is new, so Google Play does not display a rating for it yet. Install it from Google Play only; there is no official APK anywhere else.

Is Cat Simulator free?+

It is free to download and the core care loop is free to play. There is also an auto-renewing premium subscription — a free three-day trial that becomes $9.99 a week unless you cancel — covering daily coins, premium content, a daily treat and double coins. See the monetisation table on this page.

What do you actually do in Cat Simulator?+

You look after a kitten: feeding, washing, letting it sleep and playing with it, with each activity handled as a short mini-game. As you keep visiting you unlock outfits for the kitten and items for its room.

Which devices does it run on?+

iPhone, iPad and iPod touch running iOS 15.0 or later. The current release is in English.

What age rating does Cat Simulator have?+

Apple rates it 4+ on the App Store. In terms of content: there is no open chat, nothing scary and nothing that can be failed — the game is care and dress-up. Purchases go through Apple's own system and can be restricted with Screen Time; our guidance for parents explains how.
