01 / THE GUIDE
Cafe Setting and Mystery Hook
A Cat’s Paw is described as a popular cat café where the coffee is good and the staff are friendly and cute. This establishes the everyday environment that players will spend most of their time in.
The narrative hook appears when Avery discovers a strange book in the basement with unreadable letters, suggesting a secret beneath the routine. The description encourages players to balance regular café duties with curiosity about the book.
- Notice any visual details in the café that could relate to the basement book.
- Listen for dialogue that mentions the basement or the mysterious book.

Key Coworkers
Avery interacts with three named coworkers: Mason, the brusque but devoted cook; Reese, a fashion‑obsessed waiter who knows more than he says; and Graves, the enigmatic boss with strange eyes. Each is given a brief personality note.
The description invites players to consider which coworker they favor, implying that personal preference may shape how the café’s daily routine feels.
- Compare Mason’s devotion with Reese’s fashion focus to decide which dynamic you enjoy.
- Observe how Graves’ enigmatic presence is presented in conversations.

Steam Achievements
Hustle Cat includes Steam Achievements, which can be earned for completing in‑game actions. They are listed in the Steam client and are tied to the single‑player experience.
Achievements serve as optional milestones that can guide players toward exploring particular aspects of the café without altering the core story.
- Open the achievement list early to set personal goals.
- Use achievements as a checklist for hidden or less obvious content.

Steam Cloud Save
The game supports Steam Cloud, meaning save data can be synchronized through Steam’s cloud service.
Steam Cloud provides save synchronization through Steam’s cloud service.
- After a session, confirm that the cloud icon shows synchronization.
- Test the cloud by relaunching the game after a session.
