If I'm being honest, I can't even make it to the third level, The Flat, during my Stray playthrough. But apparently, when your every day is filled with meows, hisses, and jingly toys, you're a bit desensitized to cat sounds, because not a single one of them even blinks at the meowing ginger cat. I ask the person playing to press the circle on the DualSense controller (which makes the Stray cat meow as much as you'd like), hoping the kittens would react. I help them with some of the puzzles, absentmindedly rocking Charlie in my arms before I realize that this is the perfect opportunity to get a Cats Watching Stray moment. Realizing I want to pet more cats, I hand the controller to another person at the cafe, hoping they'll be better at paying attention to the game and I can play via osmosis. If both of my hands are occupied with a controller then they aren't getting pets, so they're quick to frustratingly meow or rub on me whenever I try to focus on Stray. This is Charlie, and he loves to sleep, falling into a REM cycle faster than Zazu did.Īll of these kittens clearly want attention.
An Annapurna rep hands me a DualSense controller, but I don't even get a chance to press start before another kitten quickly clambers my lap, dangling his back legs so far off of me I have to cup his little feet in one of my hands to keep him from falling off. After Zazu falls asleep in my lap, another cat cafe patron shakes a jingly toy and he wakes up with a start, bolting away before I even get a chance to say goodbye.
Meow Parlour always has a rotating cast of adoptable adult cats and kittens, but we've been blessed with an influx of the latter for this event – and they don't care that I'm there to play Stray for the first time, following the game's release on July 19 for PS5 and PC.
