General
What is Cat's Time? ›
Cat's Time is an iOS/iPadOS application featuring a collection of interactive games designed to catch a cat's attention — bugs, fish, a laser dot, mice, and other moving on-screen elements. Prop your device up in front of your cat and let their hunting instincts take over.
Is Cat's Time a subscription? ›
No. Cat's Time is a one-time purchase from the App Store. There are no subscriptions, no recurring in-app purchases, and no recurring charges. Once purchased, all games and features are unlocked permanently.
Does Cat's Time require an internet connection? ›
No. All games run entirely on your device. No internet connection is required to play — ever.
Does Cat's Time collect any data? ›
Cat's Time collects zero data — no analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting, no usage tracking of any kind.
That said, the app is distributed through the App Store, which is operated by Apple. Apple may collect certain data as part of their platform — purchase records, download statistics, and so on. That is outside our control and governed entirely by Apple's Privacy Policy.
See our Privacy Policy for the full details on what we do and do not collect.
Does Cat's Time require an account? ›
No. Cat's Time does not require account creation or sign-in of any kind. Your purchase is verified automatically through your Apple ID via the App Store.
Using Cat's Time
How do I start a game? ›
Open the app, choose a game from the game menu (bugs, fish, laser dot, mice, and more), and prop up your device where your cat can see and reach the screen comfortably.
Can I adjust the speed and size of the on-screen elements? ›
Yes. Each game includes settings for speed, size, and behavior, so you can tune the experience to match your cat's energy level and play style.
Are all games available right away? ›
Yes. Cat's Time is a one-time purchase — once you buy the app, every game in the collection is unlocked immediately with no restrictions, timers, or additional purchases required.
My cat isn't interested in the games. Is that normal? ›
Yes — every cat has different instincts and preferences. Some cats respond immediately to fast-moving elements like the laser dot, while others prefer slower movement like fish or bugs. Try a few different games and adjust the speed and size settings to see what engages your cat best.
Is it safe for my cat to interact with my device's screen? ›
Supervise your cat during play sessions and place your device securely to avoid drops or scratches. We are not responsible for any device damage resulting from cat interaction — see our Terms of Service for details.

Can I restore my purchase on a new device? ›
Yes. Use the "Restore Purchases" option in the app's settings while signed in with the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
How do I request a refund? ›
