Title: Bored Kitty [v0.2.1]
Description: Your cat is bored. Like, really bored. It’s up to you to fix it.
Bored Kitty is a relaxing yet chaotic interaction simulator where your only goal is to keep your feline friend entertained. In this latest stable build (v0.2.1), the stakes are low, but the cuteness is high. Shake toys, jingle keys, and dodge the occasional swipe of apathy.

Version 0.2.1 removes the background music entirely. Instead, you get sporadic, un-mastered audio clips: the distant sound of a can opener (which the cat will not react to), the crinkle of a plastic bag (no reaction), and—if you leave the app running for over 4 hours—a single, perfectly articulated human sigh.
Winning is a loaded term. There is no end screen. There is no "you tamed the cat" achievement. According to the developer, the game ends when one of two things happens:
A new mid-game upgrade has been added: The Cardboard Box (Lv. 1) . For 500 AP, you place a box in the room. Instead of playing with it, the cat will sit next to the box, staring at the wall. Interestingly, this doubles your passive tail-twitch rate. The logic? The cat is ignoring the box so thoroughly that its ambient boredom resets. It’s the game’s first true "non-interaction multiplier." bored kitty %5Bv0.2.1%5D
"I left this running on my second monitor during a Zoom call. My boss asked why I looked sad. I said 'My cat is ignoring a cardboard box.' He understood." – CrankyDave
"Version 0.2.1 finally fixed the tail physics. The twitch looks authentically annoyed now. 10/10, would feel inadequate again." – LaserPointerVictim
"I accidentally clicked the cat instead of the dot. It meowed in a flat tone. I haven't slept since." – SleepySam
v0.2.1 focuses on polish: smoother animations, input fixes, memory improvements, and accessibility additions. Best for: Itch
