i had a funny nightmare, not sure if playing this game caused it.
But i had a nightmare of a calico cat who was in my bed frame looking through a hole, but on a different hole, there was 2 red glowing eyes and i stayed away, and for some reason people in my nightmare became possessed and tried to hurt me.
Just saying this so i can have something to comment lmao
i also have night terrors that like to stare at me all night long through my window, it peers at me like a greedy goblin, i now call him boggle because goobly boogly fungy mungy hahahah
i don't know what the hell is wrong with me, but i cant get this game out of my HEAD. Great job, 18,432/10.

I've really enjoyed all your commentary on the game these past few weeks! I appreciate you trying out the game and I'm even happier that you pushed through all the way the end. Thank you for all your kind words and encouragement. And once again, thank you for playing my game!
This is literally the best game I played in my LIFE! (not including the slight trauma that I got but I can bare with it) Tbh I'd take this cat [monster] home no matter what <3
Hey pixie! So I've been binging playthroughs of your game and, my cat shadows brother had died in a horrible tornado, what makes it worse is that I'm in a different country, my parents are babysitting them, it isn't in my parents control for life and death so I don't blame them for having my cat passing away, not their fault anyway, seeing your success in a game makes me smile, I see that anyone can succeed if they work hard, and I've also enjoyed your game sooo much, thanks for making such an amazing game, and making my day.
I'm so sorry to hear about Shadow's brother. The death of a beloved pet is never easy so I hope that you're able to find a little comfort in the memories you shared with him.
I really love this game and I'd like to play it again from the beginning, but I cant understand how to reset the progress:( Thanks in advance and thanks to the developer for this game<3
Absolutely! Search up Malwarebytes, SuperAntiSpyware, and Avast Antivirus download them all, run every file on your computer, Avast will scan the files, after that, any worms that have infect the video game file "do not take this cat home" will have been deleted
Hi! So, I tried to get the game, and I have an apple computer. It doesn't let me download it. I mean once I go to my files or what ever, it doesn't let me open it. Does anyone know how to fix it?
If you want to play again with a full reset, you'll have to delete ALL save/persistent data from TWO files -- one in the folder where you installed the game AND one in these platform-specific locations on your computer:
i finished it all in one day INSANE game (in a good way) when IT began to cry i couldn't help but feel really bad for it (maybe its a part of me too LOL) but i cant figure out one of the ending i think its the very last one yk when the game goes back to normal after everything all the endings are just the same and its saying i didnt get the final ones but i have saves from them am i just being stupid
Once you beat the game, the main menu has "..." as an option to return to the alley. If you choose to play again, it won't completely reset game, but it will bring you back to the point before you started endgame segments - so right before ending 36. That way people could replay the other endings without losing the ability to skip already seen dialogue/lines. It doesn't erase saves from when you played those final endings, but it removes them from the Endings menu.
my toxic trait is despite being aware that IT is meant to symbolize an abuser the way it begged mc to not leave towards the end made me REALLY NOT WANT TO LEAVE :((( Especially the way it got angry when mc tried to say that IT didnt love them…..my heart
awesome game, will replay until i probably memorize all the lines
OH MY GOODNESSS!! I didn't know what I was getting myself into when I downloaded the game. When I saw the title my first reaction was "why? I wanna take home the kitty D:" and then I was done for afterward. Played the game and realized why that was a horrible idea.. Loved making the same mistake of going back to take the kitty home LMAO. Overall loved the game, loved the concept, and loved how cutely deceiving the little fella was.
the most enjoyable hell ive ever experienced, the best game ive ever played, it took me and a friend 7 hours to complete, i work in 4 hours, its 3 am, i live an hour away. Thank you, please make everything you possibly can. ":)" -Friend
I understand that feeling. Fantastical as the story is, these kinds situations in real life leave people with very complicated feelings in the aftermath.
Ahh, this game made me cry so much. The final ending hit really close to home for me, but not in a bad way! In fact I think it healed me just a bit :') This was a terrifying and interesting game to play, I had a lot of fun getting all the endings <3 Thank you for creating such a wonderful game.
I cant play it help it says 'this computer is using software rendering its graphics drivers may be out of date or not operating correctly." when i try to run it everytime

Nyaa... Nyaa.... ah a a wow
Anyway, this is great game.
Thank you so much!
i had a funny nightmare, not sure if playing this game caused it.
But i had a nightmare of a calico cat who was in my bed frame looking through a hole, but on a different hole, there was 2 red glowing eyes and i stayed away, and for some reason people in my nightmare became possessed and tried to hurt me.
Just saying this so i can have something to comment lmao
i also have night terrors that like to stare at me all night long through my window, it peers at me like a greedy goblin, i now call him boggle because goobly boogly fungy mungy hahahah
That sounds terrifying! Maybe that calico cat was trying to protect you? That'd be nice, haha!
I'm so upset that I messed up my recordings on this. The cat is adorable, of course I took it home even if it does kill me. :3
*boo womp SFX* :(
>:(
*boo womp SFX* >:)
I'm glad you still enjoyed game!
I finished the game, my favorite ending that didn't include the N/A ending was the plush ending :) I like cats.
kibdy kabt
#getafather is all i'm gonna say.
The plush endings were both fun, played into my fears of dolls coming alive! Cats are great <3
I just realized you reply to every single comment. Please tell me you are working on a new game, I'd love to see more from you.
i hope they do too
I try to! I hope to make a new game sometime soon!
i don't know what the hell is wrong with me, but i cant get this game out of my HEAD. Great job, 18,432/10.

I learned what happens when I take the cat home... I only got 2 endings so far but MAN is this mad interesting!
Thank you so much for trying out the game! I hope you enjoy the rest of the game and its story!
Definitely enjoyed the game and am highly considering going back to finishing it! Keep up the good work!
I've really enjoyed all your commentary on the game these past few weeks! I appreciate you trying out the game and I'm even happier that you pushed through all the way the end. Thank you for all your kind words and encouragement. And once again, thank you for playing my game!

Splendid!
ITThe cat will be very pleased! (=OwO=)im still gonna take the cat home idc, i lovve cats even if they can murder me
Haha! The cat lover's dilemma: evil cat = cat(?) = ♥(???)
Btw, I'm using it to teach english to my sister!
That's awesome! I'm glad the game could be helpful in that way!
Best game ever! Gives me Lovecraft and Coraline vibes all of the time. Great storylines and ending(s)!
Those were among many inspirations for the game, so that's quite the compliment! Thank you very much!
This is literally the best game I played in my LIFE! (not including the slight trauma that I got but I can bare with it) Tbh I'd take this cat [monster] home no matter what <3

PLEASE HELP
I really love this game and I'd like to play it again from the beginning, but I cant understand how to reset the progress:(
Thanks in advance and thanks to the developer for this game<3
What's ur os?
Windows 11
Alright, first press the windows key.
Now type %APPDATA% and press enter.
Now, select the folder that says "renpy" and open.
Then delete the folder that looks something like "do not take this cat home".
Then reopen the game, tell me if the game doesnt restart.
It didn't work:(
NVM, IT DID. OH DUDE, THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH AGAIN💞👍
yw :|)
just beat the game. I LOVE IT
Thank you very much!
This game is so so so good. I usually don't post comment anything but i really enjoyed playing this, and even cried lol.
Thank you so much! I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the game!
Here to talk to past self. It won't let me because it says it may not be free from Malware. Does anyone know how to get rid of that Malware warning??
Absolutely! Search up Malwarebytes, SuperAntiSpyware, and Avast Antivirus download them all, run every file on your computer, Avast will scan the files, after that, any worms that have infect the video game file "do not take this cat home" will have been deleted
Hi! So, I tried to get the game, and I have an apple computer. It doesn't let me download it. I mean once I go to my files or what ever, it doesn't let me open it. Does anyone know how to fix it?
Unzip the file
How do you restart the game completely? the game was completly amazing but I really wanna play it all over again like compleatly is their a way to?
Thank you very much for playing!
If you want to play again with a full reset, you'll have to delete ALL save/persistent data from TWO files -- one in the folder where you installed the game AND one in these platform-specific locations on your computer:
## Windows: %APPDATA\RenPy\<config.save_directory>
## Macintosh: $HOME/Library/RenPy/<config.save_directory>
## Linux: $HOME/.renpy/<config.save_directory>

as a perrrfeshonal cat lover i would infact bring IT home 9/9 lives
I think IT would be purr-fectly happy with that! OwO
10/10! I’m really impressed with the game narrative. Although I feel bad for the cat, a part of me don’t because of what he did.
Thank you very much!
I understand that feeling. Fantastical as the story is, these kinds situations in real life leave people with very complicated feelings in the aftermath.
OKAY but consider: it's just a little guy tho
A wee little guy? My one weakness!! D:
wee wittle fella
VERY GOOD 10/10, I really feel bad for the cat, it was REALLY a part of us
Thank you so much!
Ahh, this game made me cry so much. The final ending hit really close to home for me, but not in a bad way! In fact I think it healed me just a bit :') This was a terrifying and interesting game to play, I had a lot of fun getting all the endings <3 Thank you for creating such a wonderful game.
Thank you very much! I'm always happy to hear that the game and its story resonates with people in a positive way!
Your reaction gameplays are always fun to watch! I'm glad you're enjoying the game so far!
Thanks for making an incredible game!
I cant play it help it says 'this computer is using software rendering its graphics drivers may be out of date or not operating correctly." when i try to run it everytime
You might have to update your computer's video or graphics driver. Hope that helps!
This is from far the best game I've ever played on this plataform
10/10!!!
Thank you so much! That's very kind of you to say!
tbh chilling with "IT" would be such a vibe
it would not take long for you to be Taken
LINUX RUN HOW-TO
For Linux Mint/any "flavor" of Ubuntu
Firstly, download and extract game (duh) to downloads folder
Secondly, open terminal (Ctrl + Alt + T)
Now type in "cd ~/Downloads/DoNOTTakeThisCatHome-1.0-pc" (without the quotes.)
Then type "chmod +x DoNOTTakeThisCatHome.sh" (This makes the shell file executable.)
Finally, to execute, type "./DoNOTTakeThisCatHome.sh" ( you may also type "./DoNOT" and press tab.)
Reply if there is any trouble!
I appreciate you posting this! Thank you!
yw :)
