About the Game

Your grandmother left you her farm, and the cats that came with it. It was a haven once. Now the fences are broken, the cat house is falling apart, and the residents are hungry. Time to bring the place back to life.

Cats Are Money is a cozy idle game about caring for cats, not just running a farm. Feed them, pet them, clean up after them, and they reward you with fur. Neglect them and they grow sad, stop producing, and eventually fall ill. Every cat here is a pet, not a number.

Over 150 unique cats are waiting to be found, each with its own look and personality. Track down the rarest breeds from every corner of the world and build the collection you always wanted.

Your cats need food and attention every single day. Keep them fed and loved and the fur keeps coming. Ignore them and they will let you know: first the sad face, then the empty basket, then the illness.

Turn your residents into fashion icons. Buy outfits, hats and accessories, then dress up every cat exactly the way you like.

Expand across the map by buying new farm locations around the world. Every region adds territory and unlocks cat breeds you will not find anywhere else.

Sweep up the trash, fix what is broken and keep the place running. Upgrade your farm and unlock new amenities to produce more fur and give your cats a better home.
