Doesn't Work

Couldn't get it to stop crashing on either my maxed out gaming platform or my regular Dell home computer. The "patch" didn't have any effect.

Zero Stars Is A Massive Overrating

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I should have checked the other reviews here before I let my kids waste their allowance on a completely worthless game.

I loaded this worthless game onto two different, new, fully updated computers and could not get the game to run properly, if at all, even after several hours of work. On one machine it would not run at all, on the other it ran extremely poorly so I downloaded the patch which only made things worse, now it will not run at all.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME - IT IS A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY!!! I am an advanced computer user with 29 years of experience with software, hardware and programming and use computers all day everyday and I could not make it work and gave up.

I do not know how this company lives with itself taking money from little kids and reducing them to tears as my kids were (which explains the hours spent trying to get it to run) and I see from other postings here many other were as well.

I do not think I can really say enough bad about this worthless disk - OK, almost worthless as I guess one could play Frisbee with it.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't Put Up With This Junk

To all the people who bought this "game" and were frustrated and disappointed that it doesn't play correctly, even with the patch: Fight back!

"Caveat emptor" is a thing of the past; consumers today do not have to put up with this. Report the developers and publishers to the FTC, you can do it through their website. File a complaint with your state's attorney general. Look up the company's info on Verisign's WhoIs, or do a Google search on the company and anyone listed in the game's credits. You'd be amazed how much contact information can be found over the web, both home and work.

Call them up and continue calling them up until you get what you want, or work your way higher up the chain of command. You have to be relentless, don't let them off the hook. This is the only way to get through to greedy companies who sell non-functional garbage to make a buck.

FInally got it to work

My 6 yr. old daughter bought this game at WalMart with her own money. We brought it home and like everyone else, it crashed time after time. She was REALLY upset!

But after downloading the patch from [...], it now seems to be working fine. For those that have already downloaded the patch, you might go back and try again because it says this patch was released on Sept. 14. (i noticed all the reviews were prior to that date) I'm guessing they have very recently updated the patch.

That being said, I'm giving it three stars because my daughter is telling me five stars, but the game just doesn't look that much fun to me. I would say two stars at most....but she's not having it. So we have compromised on three stars. I actually think she's only saying five stars just because she's so darn relieved we finally got it to work!

She seems to enjoy it so far, but I'm thinking that it will probably get boring pretty fast. There isn't a lot to do except feed it, give it water, brush it, etc. Very repetative.

But I'm just glad we were able to get it to work! If you already have the game, go re-try the patch again!

Got this for my daughter. First it wouldnt work at all. It was missing drivers that I had to download off thier website. Then when I finally got the program "working" It was very bizarre. The cat ended up absorbed into a wall - strange. None of the activities worked the way you'd think they should. I ended up with my daughter in tears and throwing the program in the trash.

I bought the game for my daughter. I have been unable to even get the game running although I meet and or exceed the requirements. I downloaded the patches e.t.c that were available but still all I get is a message saying cannot initialize video mode. Daughter is very diappointed and hurt as to she was looking forward to being able to play this. Even though game does not work cannot even get refund since it has been opened. Not worth the hassle. (Update)-Have written the company for about the 6th time since buying, first 2 responses were to simply download the patches(which I had informed then I had already done) now I get no response at all.

Do not buy

The game crashes when you start it most of the time. It always crashes when you change rooms. The patch makes it worse. Tried on Nvidia, ATI and Intel graphics machines with full updates. Crashes no matter what.

BUYER BEWARE!!!

I bought this for my daughter for her birthday. It was a real disappointment from the beginning. Ok, so the graphics are not very good but she is seven and just wanted to feed and play with her new computer kitty. Everytime she changed rooms an error would pop up. So I went to the company website, downloaded and installed the needed patch and guess what. Now she can take her cat from one room to another but anytime she trys to play with the cat using one of the toys the cat immediately goes to the right of the screen, partially disappears in to the wall, and there is no way to get out of this glitch unless you quit and restart the game. If you are a parent looking for a cute game for you child this is not the one for you. The only thing this game has been good for so far is disappointing my daughter on her birthday!!!!

worse than bad

I would have given this zero stars if the program had that as an option. A really, really awful game. The graphic are awful, the game does not respond to the mouse. The hot spots to click on are vague and frustrating and often full areas of the graphics are missing and there is just a black square where the picture should go. I have written tech support clearly explaing the difficulites and have received no reply, not even and form email.I too am running this on a computer that exceeds the minimun requirements. Don't waste your money and until things improve I will not be purchasing any of Game Mills products, they are really poor quality. Find something else for your 20 bucks!!

DOES NOT WORK! Riddled with bugs!

I can not beleive this company even released this game. Someone must had to meet a deadline before it was complete. It doesn't work. There was no quality testing because it is riddled with bugs. And quite simply, it just does not work. You cant use the things you buy. It's just all very very odd. My daughter used a gift card to buy this - and I feel she got severely ripped off.
