When the heavily anticipated 'STRAY', a game about a cute orange cat in a post-apocalyptic world, came out, hoomans worldwide rejoiced and immediately jumped into the experience. So they traversed the ruin-scattered landscapes as a cute and cuddly kitty, but little did they realize the effect this game would have on their own kitties.

When these hooman gamers' fabulous felines laid eyes on this virtual cat hero, they were instantly enthralled, most of them immediately stopping what they were doing and staring intensely as the cat did all manners of kitty parkour, while other kitties tried their hardest to join this heroic kitty, getting as close to the screen as possible and meowing advice at it. Luckily, most of these adorable acts were documented in some form, and we have some here for you today. Enjoy!

'Go left! No that's right! Ugh just let me do it!' Due to the release of STRAY and the increased frustration of some cats at how terrible their hoomans are at playing a cat, there has been a noticeable increase in feline gamers.

This gamer kitty is playing Stray using a very unique method. He is baking biscuits on the humans legs, in order to control his actions via the controller. This is a very advanced technique, and is in no way fun at all.
