There is one ending and one SECRET. (I had intended two endings, but a secret fitted better instead).

Is there a point to all those smashable plant pots? I went out of my way quite a bit until i couldn't be bothered anymore. I dunno, I'm just one of those old school guys that expects collectibles inside stuff lol.

This looks awesomely innocent. I want to play this when I have the time and am not working on my own game.

It's a short and sweet game, a couple of minutes tops. Try it!

I finally got around to playing this properly and finished it. Cute game and ending, you should definatley do this up with some sharper graphics one day, and a few more innocent/pointless things to explore, gave it charm and interest.

Fantastic game, Andy! You've got more talent in your whole body than I have in my little finger. Haha!

Wow, very cool! It really did feel like I was a cat, haha. I was meowing while playing this. I also liked the little debris flying around, nice touch!

I really enjoyed Stray Whisker too, the concept is excellent and I found the experience very enjoyable. The art style and mood of the game is very different from conventional indie games, its very inspiring! Well done again Andy!!!!

I played through the game again to see the secret LOL. Getting past that dam dog with the "WINK WINK" was a right nightmare!!

Wow...

You just made my day with that game. Simple, but very enjoyable, and very moving, what with the unsaid storyline and all. I literally almost teared up at the end. Again, very very well done.

I really appreciate you sharing this game with us!

MeadowHare - I'm glad that the game struck a chord with you, I tried quite hard to give the game a lot of emotion and allow the player to have fun being a cat, so it's rewarding to see that you enjoyed it

Thank you for your feedback.
