Catz

This game is helpful for a younger person wanting a cat. It's campy fun for an older person as well.

The player character is either a grade school boy or girl(you choose).

Positive points:

-It shows what must be done day to day in caring for a "low maintenance" pet; such as a cat.
-There are many breeds to own as you progress in the game.

Negative points:

-You can only keep your pet 14 game days.
-There are no "extras" such as games.
-No accessories like collars, furniture, or music.
-There is also this annoying purple haired girl to check on your progress. She even threatens to take your cat away if you don't care for it. The parents in the game even are scared of this twerpy girl. My son termed her the Kitty Protection Services Polizei. This is the most annoying aspect of the game.

We bought this game for our 8 year old daughter for her birthday. She loves it. I like the fact that you have to do some reading. The only complaint she has is that you have to give up your cat after 14 days and pick a new one.(each day only takes a few minutes) During the 14 days you take care of your kitten by grooming it, playing with it, feeding it and cleaning up after it(sometimes it makes puddles on the floor or breaks a vase if you leave it alone for a couple of minutes.) Overall, if your child loves cats I would say that this game is worth it.

The O.K. catz.

The Catz game I just got for Game Boy Advance SP and it's not as good as dogs. Here are my reasons: 1.In Dogz you can choose the action you want to do (for example, to go to bed) but in this game you CAN'T!!!!!!!!! In the directions it says by 9:00 you can choose to go to bed but by 12:00 midnight it will always make you go to bed. But when I play you see the view of your cat and can't move the view to see something else! So, as result your character wakes up to late to feed the dog food and water. You only have time to give the dog one of them! Food OR water. It's your choice (for once!) Rediculous!!!!!!!!!!
2.You can't see your character!!! Only at night you'll see your character's purple hair in bed. (PURPLE HAIR?!) All your life is in the game is standing always in the same view as your cat, never knowing how your character looks and trying to feed comfort your cat FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!
3.You can't walk your cat!!!!!!!! It says you can but all you do is see your cat walk on the veranda?!
So, in conclusion, it's really boring.

AWSOME

monotonous repetition monotonous repetition monotontous repetition.
When you "play" with your pet, it swipes at the toy in exactly the same way every time- for about two seconds. There is no dynamic action in this game. Why a child or anyone else would find this entertaining is beyond me.
My five year old girl said it was "stupid" and doesn't bother to play it. This is nothing but a glorified Tamagotchi. Monotonous repetition of the same actions. Don't be fooled, its not like your child will be interacting with a cyber pet.

Well, I got this game intead of Pixel chix! I love it! I just wish it would go by normal days and time. I think by age 14, he will go. :( Poor Moon. I am only going to play with him once-a-day, or not save. :( It is still cool, my next aim is Dogz, then pocket puppys or whatever. I am collecting Virtual Pets and hand held Games.

not nearly as fun as pocket dogs

kids did not fight over this game like pocket dogs. in fact, i bought it to alleviate the fighting over pocket dogs and my girls like cats better than dogs but...they seemed to care less about the game and then "lost" it in the back seat of dad's car. when i asked them if they ever found it they said that they didn't care to because no one liked it!
girls are 7, 9 (and 3 years but she is not really a customer)

CUTE but not worth $30

I bought this game for my 6 year old daughter. She loves it, although if I knew it didn't have the mini games like the dogz game does, I woudn't have bought this one. She loves this one though, I guess that's all that counts, especially since she's so picky about video games. I also ordered Pocket Dogs which has a really good review. Wait till the price drops, or look into one that has the mini games as well.

Ups and DOWNS!

This game is OKAY, I guess. There are some ups and some DOWNS.
Some ups are:
When your cat is on a walk when you're at school it can get you some money
When your cat is on a walk when you're at school it can get a free snack
You can play with your cat when you're home from school. You can buy new snacks,toys, and food for your cat.
You get to name your cat.
You can unlock new cats.
It is fun.

Some DOWNS are:
There aren't any mini games
You can't stay up past midnight.
It's an absolutely horrifying type of horrible game.
I hate it.
A guy named Chris hates it.
A different guy named Chris LOVES it.
DOGZ is better.
It is stupid.
It stinks.
You can't take your cat on a walk.
This girl keeps on checking on you and threatening to take YOUR cat away.
Your parents actually think the girl's doing something good.
Your parents are actually afraid of the girl.
You only have it for 14 days in the game.

It's a great little game for the gameboy sp it would be great for a small child to learn to take care of a real cat before getting one. Or just as a game.
