About the game
Play as one of 4 quirky, competitive cat ladies. Build your deck by collecting cards from the market Use your cards to get the only thing that makes you truly happy... more cats! The lady with the most cats wins the game! There are two types of currency in the game, coins and hearts. On a players turn, they use their hand of cards to play actions, buy cards with coins or adopt cats with accumulated hearts. Their newly purchased cards and cats are put into the players discard pile for use later. Once the pile of 29 cats has been depleted, the game ends immediately and the player with the most cats is the top cat lady!
