I bought this game for my niece to play while she was here. After installing it in my brand new Gateway, all that comes up is a box stating that it cannot initialize video mode.Take the $20.00 and donate it to your local animal shelter. You'll get a whole lot more satisfaction.
This game is a minus five stars!!!!!!!!

Gamemill Publishing is worthless they should have called this game "Kitty Mill". This game was a spur of the moment purchase we had no idea there was such a dark cloud hanging over it. My daughter loves cats and when she saw this game on the shelf she was so excited and could not wait to play it. Needless to say she was frustrated and disappointed.
If Gamemill Publishing had any ethics at all they would recall this pile of Kitty you-how-what and replace or refund customers money. They do not answer email and there is no phone number that I can find. How very convienient. Cowards.
We got the same error message about the video mode. On another computer it played for all of two minutes before it crashed. I am with the person who said if they could have given it a zero they would have I am giving it a - 5. Just to be clear how dispicable the makers of this game are. Shame on you GameMill I will never purchase anything from this company again and you guys owe me $20.00.
Calling it garbage is too kind!

I work with computers for a living and this is the worst piece of software that I have seen. It did not work out of the box at all. I looked up and found that there was a patch (the web site says version 1.6, but the patch itself says 1.8 when installing). I have tried this on three systems with no luck. On the HP 7955, it just locks up - no mouse to control it. On the other two systems, we could not change locations (as reported by others) and could only do two of the activities. I would expect this of alpha/beta software, but not of released software, especially after 8 published patches.
The web site is less than helpful - some of the pages are blank (like the support page).
Garbage, deseves no stars

As all the other reviewers say, this software is junk. The so-called upgrade to version 1.6 is an abomination.
The following is the text of a message I sent to Lost Sock, who is supposedly responsible for this trash getting into the marketplace. I doubt I will hear back:
Folks:
You have managed to sell software that is a complete abomination, in the name of Kitty Luv. My daughter has succeeded in wasting her own hard earned money on this piece of utter trash.
The first version spontaneously crashed (running on Window XP Pro with a high end Navidia video card.)Your so-called patch apparently changed the interface, and stopped the crashing, only because most of the options available to click on simply do not invoke anything. The only activity this "kitty" does autonomously is pee in its litter box and scratch the post. The mouse arrow does not change to a "hand" in order to facilitate any interaction with the virtual kitty. No ability to change location as well.
Whatever nitwit within your organization allowed this garbage into the market place should be summarily canned.
Corporately, you should be embarrassed. Take a look at various website reviews where this trash is up for sale, and you will get an eyeful of how much of a failure this product you are ripping people off with is. A pitiful example of "software" that does nothing but disappoint.
Have a nice Christmas...
Patch Fix Does not fix all - Don't buy Kitty Luv Software for the PC

Today is January 6th, 2007. I bought this game today at Target. Came home installed. Our computers are the latest and greatest. We installed the game. It crashed. The kitty never meowed. So, we went off to the website to get the update/patch. Installed it. The patch fixed a few things but overall this is not a game, and wouldn't keep the interest of my five year old. So the question is, who is this game for? Well, it would be for a younger person BUT you need the skills to read so if Mom/Dad is willing to sit with child while trying to navigate through the screens then I'd recommend this game only for a 2 or 3 year old. I am a software engineer and my husband is also a programmer for over 15 years with a degree in Computer Science. Our professional opinion is don't buy this game. We called Target and they will not take it back even after I explained that every game on their shelf (Kitty Luv that is) is defective. We lost $19.99 plus tax at the Loveland, CO Target. Even after explaining to the manager that the software is defective, she stuck to her guns and would not take it back unless I wanted the exact same thing. Why would I want the exact same defective piece of software? She didn't understand computer programming and thinks a different disk would be better. Ugggg. All the disks are bad I explained. The software is exactly the same on all disks!
So, for anyone reading this, you will be sorry if you purchase this game even if you get it cheaper than $20. I'm so mad. Where was the testers in this piece of software? How could you release such a game to the public without testing? The software developers on this game should be ashamed, rather not so much the developers but whomever the release team manager was. He should be fired. You have made the public mad. And I'm just one that has the taken time to write. I'm sure there are others who are not even aware of this forum.
DO NOT BUY THIS GAME

This is a TERRIBLE game, it's not even a game. All the "kitty" does is follow the mouse around. Sounds do not work properly, graphics are complete garbage and the game has bugs galore. If only I had seen the review here I would have saved $20. This game does not function and is worthless to you and your children.
Crashes!!

I came across this game in wal-mart and thought 'Awwww! A new cat game I can play!' and guess what.I couldn't play it! I installed it on my brand new computer and nothing!Half the time the game screen would freeze or turn black.The stupid cat kept geting stuck in the wall when it ran by it and it would even let me choose if I wanted a male or female,it MADE me pick male and the game totally sucked!DO NOT WASTE PERFECTLY GOOD MONEY ON THIS GARBAGE!

I bought this for my daughter for her birthday. She was so happy, just to be let down as it didnt work. Since I have dial up, was going to take me over 2 hours to download the patch. Forget this one. Good idea but how can you possible market something like this that doesnt work. Dont they try out thier items before the put them on the market. I'm one very angry mom.
I agree with the other reviews - DON'T BUY THIS GAME

My son purchased this game at Target with his birthday money and we got an error message.I haven't tried downloading the patches yet - and Target only allows replacement, not a refund.
I wish we had come here first to check the reviews.
