You combine matching kittens to create higher-tier cats that earn more tokens. Then you decorate the café so it runs smoothly and looks adorable. What you do in the game Your main loop: New kittens appear on your mat/floor. Drag two matching kittens together to merge them into a higher tier. Place cats onto cushions/perches to generate tokens. Use tokens for upgrades and décor. Complete visitor requests for extra rewards. It’s not frantic. The “puzzle” is keeping your floor organized so merges happen easily. Controls Desktop Click and drag cats to move Drag matching cats together to merge Click buttons for upgrades, shop, and requests Mobile Tap and drag cats Drag matches together to merge Tap menus for upgrades and décor How progress works You grow by: unlocking new cat tiers (new patterns and better token rates) expanding space (so the floor doesn’t jam) completing daily neighbor requests (which reward décor and boosts) Decor isn’t just pretty—it can give small passive bonuses. Cats, furniture bonuses, and storage Later tiers may prefer certain furniture: Sun-napper: better near a window Climber: happier near a tall cat tree Reading tooltips matters. Small boosts add up. Helpful items: Scratch post: speeds up token ticks Toy basket: increases chance of getting a cat you’re trying to match Hold shelf/storage: saves a rare cat until its partner arrives Tips to play better (specific café strategy) Make a “merge zone.” Reserve one corner where pairs sit close together. Keep your earning cats on cushions. Floor cats should mostly be “merge candidates.” Upgrade capacity early. Space is more valuable than fancy décor at the start. Store rare cats instead of blocking the floor. Use the hold shelf if you have it. Merge from biggest to smallest when cluttered. Big merges free space faster. Don’t chase one super-cat too soon. Two medium cats can help daily requests better than one stalled high-tier. Use visitor requests as your short-term plan. If it asks for tabbies, focus merges that lead there. Place preference cats correctly. Window cats near windows; climbers near tall furniture. Save token boosts for busy moments. Use speed items when you have many earning cats placed. Keep one empty cushion. It gives you flexibility when a new high-tier cat appears. Tip: Tidy first, then merge. Messy floors slow everything. If you keep losing track of pairs, group cats by tier in rows (tier 1 row, tier 2 row, etc.). Real moment: your café feels great… then you run out of space and everything jams. That’s your sign: upgrade space, not cosmetics. Upgrades and what to buy first Best early buys usually include: more floor/cushion space faster token tick items (like scratch posts) storage/hold shelf Then add décor boosts once your café runs without gridlock. Common problems & quick fixes Can’t merge a cat: It must be the exact same tier—check patterns carefully. Floor is too crowded: Pause merging plans, do big merges, and buy capacity. Lag: Close other tabs and refresh. No sound: Quiet mode or device volume may be on. Full screen issues: Exit and re-enter full screen; rotate mobile.
