Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A desktop pixel pet that wanders, sleeps, plays, uses a virtual litter box, and leaves you responsible for the cleanup.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-06 issue.

Field notes

PoopCat is presented as a macOS desktop companion rather than a browser game. Its central loop is unusually concrete: the cat enters a litter box, leaves waste, and requires the user to hold and move a shovel until the mess is removed. The page lists macOS 13 or later support for both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, a roughly 40 MB build, menu-bar controls, and several coat colors. A Windows edition is described as in preparation rather than available.
