About Cattails | Become a Cat!

Cattails lets you live as a feral cat in an open‑world setting where you hunt, fight, explore, and socialize. The game blends animal simulation with light RPG elements and requires you to keep food on hand.

You can join one of three colonies, court a partner from sixteen candidates, raise kittens, dig for treasure in caves, and customize your cat’s coat, eyes, accessories, and personal den.

01 / THE GUIDE

Cat Colonies

Three distinct colonies are spread across the map, each populated by resident cats. You may become friends or enemies with these residents, influencing the colony’s social landscape.

Battles can be fought to secure your colony's land claims.

  • Observe resident reactions before deciding to engage in conflict.
  • Note visual differences between colonies to choose a preferred setting.

02 / THE GUIDE

Hunting and Survival

The open world contains mice, squirrels, rabbits, and other prey you can hunt for food. Keeping a food supply prevents hunger.

Seasons change throughout the year, bringing new treasures to find in the wild as you hunt and explore.

  • Track which prey appear most often in each season.
  • Combine hunting with exploration to discover new food sources.

03 / THE GUIDE

Romance and Raising Kittens

Sixteen eligible cats can be courted, dated, and married. After marriage you can raise a litter of kittens.

Kittens may accompany you on adventures, allowing you to train them through shared journeys.

  • Listen for dialogue cues from potential partners.
  • Consider how many kittens you want to bring when planning trips.

04 / THE GUIDE

Cave Exploration

Dark caverns hide treasures and present dangerous encounters. Digging into these areas can yield riches but also requires combat readiness.

Cave runs are separate from surface activities, offering a distinct challenge that tests your cat’s fighting abilities.

  • Enter a cave only after ensuring your cat has sufficient health.
  • Compare the difficulty of different caves before choosing a target.

05 / THE GUIDE

Customization and Den

Hundreds of coat and eye color options let you personalize your cat’s appearance, while accessories add further flair. Your personal den can also be upgraded.

Seasonal festivals let you compete to win prizes.

  • Experiment with color combos to create a unique appearance.
  • Try different den upgrades to see how they change the space.
