Common Sense
Mon Jan 17 2022 HgsFourDrgsThese reviews are extremely critical for a developer who’s been super consistent. I won’t lie CatLife is a waste for the many reasons other reviews have listed. But the trend seems to be going against the developer as whole. I’ve been playing BitLife since it was first released and it’s crazy how quick and attentive the people who made the game were. I probably emailed about three different ideas and had them all in the game within a 4 month span. It’s slowed down now, which makes sense since you can practically do everything in BitLife. The developers of BitLife are the most in touch game makers I’ve ever come across. And I can’t be mad that they’re trying to make some money for their hard work. CatLife in my opinion was a flop, just felt unneeded and not so much my interest. But that definitely doesn’t change my opinion on the developers themselves. I can confidently say that they will continue to create and add fun things as well as listen to their fans, because they’ve already proven this the last couple years.
Amazing but small detail
Tue Aug 02 2022 KittyQueenXCatI’ve been playing all three versions of BitLife, and they’re a great time-killer when you’re bored, especially for those of us with a creative mind and knack for storytelling. This text-based game really satisfies my journalistic mindset, adding onto the fact that it captures another liking of mine- animals. Overall the game is fun, keeps me hooked and coming back for more. There’s just one thing that disappointed me and that’s the fact that the big cats are included, yet I never get to play as any. I get that the developers want to use mostly domestic animals, but what about the larger of the feline class? Lion, leopard, jaguar, mountain lion- all just side characters in this endless tale. I would be much happier if there was an option to play as one- even if it’s a randomly spawned life. The savannah cat is by far the closest thing to these wild cats, and even so, as someone who doesn’t pay to play, it’s very rare to spawn into the life of one. Whether you choose to add unlocking the big cats from completing certain achievements or whatnot, i’d be pleased if you included them in the game.
Suggestions
Tue Sep 20 2022 Necrite12Hello! The first I will say is that this game is not too logical, but I do have a few suggestions that would I think would make the ga,e more interesting and seem less repetitive. 1. When burglars come, maybe one of the options can be like- get help (If there are other animals in the residence) because sometimes not only one cat or dog can attack somebody and make them go away, I was playing this about an hour ago and I mauled their throat, and THEY HIT ME WITH A FRYING PAN!! Then my owner yelled out me and sent me to a shelter, I think he would notice me LIMPING if I got hit in the thigh with a pan. Back to the logic, this game is not the most logical. Sometimes when you submit to other animals, the logic isn’t always too great, like you’d carry around an umbrella to protect them from the hot sun, etc. I get that that makes it a little more fun, but it’d be cool if it were more logical. I also wish there were more options to do like in BitLife, because I feel like it’s a little bit boring sometimes.
Lag and Ads
Thu Jun 30 2022 Horrible, terrible, very bad.Before in BitLife I was completely fine with the amount of ads. Usually if a game has too many ads I stop playing, with BitLife whenever an ad popped up before I would think “oh wow it’s been awhile since the last ad ya sure I’ll watch this” but now I get an ad every like 6 actions. Sometimes the ads don’t load fully and I’m sitting there for a full minute waiting for a 10 second ad to load just so I can skip and close it. Because of the amount of ads I get overall it really discourages me from watching ads to do free actions like learn tricks. If there weren’t so many regular ads I would be much more likely to actually watch ads to do actions.
Now onto the lag, because it takes so long to load an ad just to skip and close it, it makes my actions in the game happen about 5 seconds after I actually click on the action, I had to restart my phone earlier because I played maybe 20 minutes of the game.
I used to LOVE BitLife but that one also started to have too many ads, even if I turned off my wifi and didn’t allow the app to access my data. I wish I could enjoy the game again without subpar games being shoved down my throat every 3 minutes.
realistic on ppl’s bad treatment towards cats
Mon Oct 03 2022 ssangyiThe game is fun. I’ve tried all of the games from this developer but I especially enjoy how adventurous cats naturally are. However it really shows how misunderstood they are. Babies and children harass them and they’re supposed to put up with mistreatment. The minute they hiss or act aggressively they are taken to the vet. People really are cruel to cats it’s a shame. I know this is a game but jeez humans could never have an ounce of restraint the way cats have to have in order to not be put down, odd given that cats are the actual animal not humans.
But it really is a bit difficult to have an happy ending. The minute you hiss at anyone or go a few days without doing something cute the owners turn on you, better hope you don’t have some cat hater who secretly abuses you behind his wife’s back lol you’d be sent to the shelter. And the STEET LIFE IS TOUGH, I don’t ever want to play on that mode.
Huge fan of BitLife, but this is a disappointment
Sat Jan 22 2022 Colt45websterThis is a tiny bit scammy. It’s just DogLife, full stop. Only get one of the apps if you’re interested. I only downloaded to fulfill the challenge on BitLife, which brings we to my main concern. It’s been SUCH a long time since there was a major update to the main app, and it makes me upset that they’ve probably been putting all their effort into these apps (that are literally the exact same). It’s a bit of a slap in the face when you see the BitLife app icon change, so you get hopeful for a new major or even minor update, but instead it’s the “CatLife” challenge. With the effort they put into putting CatLife on the App Store, they could’ve even made DogLife into AnimalLife or PetLife and made reptiles or small mammals playable! But instead they made a cash cow decision and just reuploaded DogLife under a different name. I used to play BitLife CONSTANTLY. I got premium AND god mode. But now it’s getting repetitive because there aren’t any new updates! Not even minor ones! I get that coding and app making is hard, and I admire what you all do, but please, actually put thought into what your fans want. I hope the BitLife team sees this and takes what I wrote into consideration ❤️
Good, but a few suggestions.
Mon Mar 13 2023 person192746452First suggestion. You know how other cats/dogs can do more than one attack, and you can only do one? I was thinking maybe you could add more than one if they bought Top Cat, or it could be for free. Second suggestion. So, I was thinking maybe you could add something to become a human, like a cat, or dog owner. If you added this then maybe you could go to like one of the shelters, and adopt a cat and/or dog. Third and last suggestion. I think it would be nice if there was something you could buy where you could always be the alpha because I feel like it’s annoying when there is always the alpha of the household if there is another pet. They always attack you, and steal your food or bed. P.S: You don’t have to add these to the game, but I think it would be nice. (Please add at least one, and if you read this, tysm!)
Real life update If you like BitLife or DogLife then this is the game for you
Sat Apr 23 2022 ThatgirlgeniusHowever since I got my new IPhone 13 promax after everything said it transferred from my previous phone I bought too cat so I could unlock all the everything and customize my characters and what not. I’ve tried everything and it’s not letting it get restored. But BitLife and DogLife have so what’s up with that? I feel a way about that. Please fix that.
Its a continuation of BitLife expect now you get to be the cat or the dog. And I just love that not only does BitLife have one. And that’s specifically just for like people and maintaining their whole lives and relationships but CatLife and DogLife give you the opportunity to do the same thing just as the pet. And not only do people have one (BitLife) but dogs have one (DogLife) and cats (CatLife) has one too and it’s like equal representation and even at the simplest level that’s good to see. Thank you guys for creating this I love these type of games.

Sat Jan 15 2022 K-1-2😘Hi Developers!
Let me just start by saying that your games are incredible. Bitlife is incredible! As you can guess I was SO psyched when I heard about Doglife! I literally downloaded it the day it came out! But as you can imagine, I was confused when the “Cat Life” challenge was released. I obviously downloaded that as soon as I knew about it, and to be honest I was kind of disappointed. Obviously I’m not a developer of these games so it’s not fair for me to offer un-backed criticism. That being said, I know that Cat Life is not receiving the best views. I believe that people are confused why you would release a whole new game just for cats when being a cat is an option in Dog Life. My suggestion is to turn “Dog Life” into “Pet Life” and give people a variety of pets to play as. That way you only have to focus on two games and you can bring them up to their full potential. I’m sorry for such a long review! Despite all of this I want to say thank you, your community supports you, and we appreciate you and all the work you put in your games!
Thank you, Kailea
SUPER Disappointed.
Sat Nov 26 2022 Review-???I had gotten this game a while ago, and I purchased Top Cat for $5. Then, a few months later I had deleted it. Now, I re-downloaded it, but when I clicked ‘Restore earlier purchases’, it didn’t work!! Even though it said that they were restored! So then, I just sucked it up and decided to buy the game pass again. After, it said that I’d already purchased it and asked me if I’d like it for free. Obviously, I said yes because I didn’t actually WANT to pay another five dollars! It said that the purchase was successful. But when I made my cat, it said that I didn’t have the game pass! I re-tried it a few times, but it still didn’t work. I was planning on just clicking ‘No’ and buying the game pass all over again. But when I got to the question, it only said ‘Cancel’ and ‘Ok’!! Cancel meaning cancel the entire transaction. So now, I can’t even buy Top Cat anymore.
LONG STORY SHORT:
The ‘restore purchases’ button didn’t work AND neither did buying the game pass ‘Top Cat’ again, so I can’t even get the game pass.
