The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What players say

Players enjoy Pat the Cat as a low-pressure desktop companion, praising its many animations and the ability to customize the cat's look and behaviors. A recurring complaint is that the cat can only do one thing at a time, so you cannot pet it while it watches TV or wanders.
