Do NOT Take This Cat Home

I found this in the yandere tag and downloaded it. I am happy that I did because this is one of the best VNS I have read. For a title like this, I found myself crying reading the last ending.
Looking forward to your next project! :)

Spoilers:

Istg i didn't expect this game to make me cry. It looks like just another creepy horror game and is, granted a creepy horror game but the overall story and theme make it a REALLY good metaphor for an abusive relationship. Near the end where it's looking at you after you've defeated it and says "i love you" only to switch up immediately after you tell it that you don't believe it hit hard. 10/10 would recommend this game

Great game! I loved the art style and story! Turning my love for cats against me was an evil thing to do xD 
I would've loved seeing more than one "true" or "good" ending with the adorable kitty, but I love stories that play with your heartstrings... It makes them more memorable. Great work, I hope you'll release another great story like this one!

This game is so cool, finished it minute ago

This game is cool.... (just finished it 3 minutes ago, i'm so emotionally drained, but it is really cool! it's just much more dark then i thought, hahaha--)

You know, making a game where the monster is a small, adorable kitten this genuinely unnerving is a hell of a feat. Good job!

SPOILERS!!! SPOILERS WEE-OO-WEE-OO

This game... oogh... this game was amazing. i was NOT expecting this from a free game i found randomly on itch. it had a lot of hard work into it, and some times i actually felt scared/fearful of the "cat". probably the ending that got my hairs to go up the most would probably be the mystery food ending, ooogh... okay, but back on track, i just finished the game, and my mind is blown. i almost cried when getting my final ending. this is soooo much more than just a silly little horror game with a cat. i thought the mc was very cool too, i was very suprised when i would get little tidbits of lore from getting certain amounts of endings (in a good way!). its actually kinda connects to me too, because i also am friends with a little stray black cat who ALSO has big yellow eyes (but i guess, that cat isn't an all consuming evil creature). theres plenty more i could say about this game, but im not really that good at ranting haha- really, i got more than i asked for from this game, in a good way. 8.5/10. really, really good. (this sounds so weird, im really just some random guy online who really liked a certain game.)

Found this by pure random but Slay The Princess is one of my favourite Steam games ever! This is just as good.

Can you add it to Android please?

good game

I TOOK THE CAT HOME...I'm still hiding ever since I made this video...send help

这是我玩过的最好的视觉小说之一！^o^

I wasn't expecting a good game, but it gave me AN INCREDIBLE experience. Such an amazing game and in love with the end.

Congratulations

I ADORED it very much 

10/10

I love this game so much like omg i would very much let a silly monster that looks like a kitty cat do all that. love the cotton-head ending it's oddly sweet ^^

sorry for spelling) Ok so i made a fanfiction, so basically in this fanfiction the cat is not evil and is corrupted and controlled by another pet, A P U P P Y ive prepared ending dialouge as well this will start at the end of do not take this cat home without further ado lets start. Cat <please.. ill be good!> ( do not take this cat home?) (Take this cat home) you<TAKES THE CAT HOME> Cat<... Thank you for your love i have been freed.. i will be able to give you information about the corruption you can now only talk to me by a RITUAL tho i love you...> you<!!!???? what!> (you ponder over the black cat seems like the corruption(BLACK STRIPES) are coming out of the cat (apperantly its name is shadow).) i got this idea because pixieliminal stated the cat TRULY loves us so im thinking the cat is magical and im thinking someones possessing them CONTROLLING him, btw I can't draw but I made a comic-style drawing of this. 

this is giving creepy cat in like the best way!!1!!1!!

I thought it's gonna be a short gameplay, but no! I found myself played it the entite time till I fill all the ending. It's such a phenomenal game, I actually feel bad about "IT" but MC was right

Yeah I have personal life (I need about hour to complete it all Xd)

I'm at 32 endings out of 40 and I.... I feel oddly uncomfortable (The game is great tho keep going, 10/10)

I absolutely adore this game to pieces!! Every route was fun to read through and although tbh 40 endings are quite a lot, I'm very happy to see how well it was wrapped up in the true ending. It was very subtle but the tiny snippets of the MC's life, personality, and the way they think I LOVEDD every part of it ESP because when they get too relatable and with the way it was portrayed I really liked,, this game is one of those that I would give anything to play again for the first time thank you for such a wonderful game <33

everybody. this cats name was announced to be: Shadow

I absolutely loved this game. Played it for stream and we had so much fun making all sorts of different decisions and watching the story unfold. This game was so much more than I expected and I loved it. I've even suggested it to friends to play as well.

I remaked it here: Do NOT Take this cat home! on Scratch (mit.edu)

okay first of all did not expect any of this at all 
yeah I knew it was a scary game but it was more than that. I didn't realize how much I related to the player in the game. ngl I almost shed a tear at how much I just relate to them.
the cat is cute too there were times were I just wanted to keep it but anyway the game is just overall so much fun and so much more than a horror game.
I finished it all in like an hour or 2 and honestly got all the endings and was pretty proud that I did that
the actual ending of the game made me tear up joyfully also it was really cute.
would recommend this to anyone

I know I already wrote a review but I want to comment it here too!

The game was awesome! I had a blast playing it! Here are some of my honest opinions about this game: The game excels in its story writing, and some of the fourth-wall breaks got me a few times. The occasional moving pictures were done really well, but I would've loved it more if there was a Gallery button where you can see all the moving & non-moving pictures!

Some of my nitpicks are that around the ending sequence where you were chased by IT, I didn't like how tedious the process was to keep repicking the move left, move back and move right options since it's just trial and error until you get to the end. But maybe it was intentional since it's to show how much the cat will go just to pursue you though...

The mirror maze was something that has something similar going on but you could pick the difficulty so I had no problem with it!

All in all, the game was still fantastic and I really love the message at the end talking about the toxic and abusive relationship that happens in life, because that was something I didn't expect in this game and thought it's just the cat killing you in different ways :)

Hopefully you make more games soon! Be it cat-themed or not~

At first I wasnt sure where this was headed, until the end of the game. Ngl it made me cry a little. This was a really great game

I've played a lot of visual novels in my days and this is by far hands down one of the best ones I have ever played. The story was great and I just couldn't seem to stop playing until I finally got every ending done and now just stare at the final menu screen. Absolutely amazing, Highly recommend this visual novel!

The most underrated and yet scariest visual novel horror in this generation and we will never know that abomination of a cat's name and I love it ᵇᵘᵗ ˢᵉʳⁱᵒᵘˢˡʸ ᵗʰᵉ ᶜᵃᵗ'ˢ ⁿᵃᵐᵉ﹖ ʷᵉ'ˡˡ ⁿᵉᵛᵉʳ ᵏⁿᵒʷ
