Hailing from the marshes of the Mystic Colony, Krampy is ready to find true love! Don't let the mask (or the leeches!) scare you off, because underneath the mysterious exterior of this veteran doctor lies a caring heart.
A kindly healer from the Forest Colony, Doc is ready to consider settling down. Spend some time with this old cat and you just might find that you've got a lot in common!
A timid and shy cat, Luna spends the day taking care of patients in the Mountain Domain. But running a clinic is lonesome work, and perhaps even a cat with such a cold temperament can have a change of heart?
Galen is a wisened stranger from the distant northern lands. If you are powerful enough to run your very own colony, you may find that this cat will be drawn to a den that's well-stocked with herbs.
A new system has been added to Cattails: Tasks! Complete tasks to receive rewards and Task Tokens, which may be exchanged for prizes. Your colony calls on brave cats like you to scout, forage, hunt, explore, and more!
Each day, a new task will appear. You'll have until midnight to complete it. Participating in the tasks is completely optional, but we think you'll be interested in many of the new rewards!
If you've created your own colony, you'll find the Task Board added as a Structure option in the Build Menu.
Three new Active Skills have been added to the game! You can unlock these powerful new abilities by participating in daily tasks.
Shield: Become invulnerable to all damage for a few seconds and charge into battle!
Pinecone Toss: Quickly hurl a pinecone at your enemies for a fast ranged attack!
Bug Bait: Summon a swarm of in-season bugs around you! (No effect in winter.)

In addition to these new features, we made a number of smaller changes. Here's the patch notes:
Added a 'skip tutorial' option if you make a new file on a computer that already has at least 1 other file

Additionally, today we're announcing what's next for Cattails on PC/Mac!
We've been working hard behind the scenes on two exciting changes to Cattails. The first, a Technical Update (v1.2), is available right now on PC and Mac. While there's not much new in the way of content, we've made a number of important structural changes that will pave the way for the future of Cattails. Here's the v1.2 patch notes:
4 new colors for your cat are available at various shops
Overhauled the entire code base to make changes that will make Cattails run much smoother on older machines
Miscellaneous quality of life and balancing changes
A host of bug fixes, including a major one regarding random enemy cat spawning. Now enemy territory should feel a bit more dangerous!
Essentially, the biggest change in the Technical Update is that we've "unlocked" the game speed from the computer's computational cycle. What that means is that if you're running Cattails on an older machine (or if you like to place thousands of items on the floor of your den ;) ) you should find that the game runs a lot smoother. This was a fairly involved process that required us to basically go back through each and every line of code in Cattails and make a lot of alterations. Phew, glad that's over with!
Looking ahead to the future, we have a small new content patch scheduled to come out before the end of the year. We think you'll really enjoy what we have in mind! Details coming soon.
It's an exciting time to be a cat! We hope you'll join in our excitement for the Nintendo Switch release, as well as look forward to the PC/Mac updates. Until next time,

In a cruel act of betrayal, the life I once knew is ripped away. I’m left a stranger in a strange land, forced to declare allegiance to a group of warriors with only blind faith to guide me. My new home, the forest, is out of alignment. Three clans fight for territory day in and day out. The guardians must be awoken. Restoring balance to the colonies rests on my shoulders alone.
I am a cat.
Cattails is the debut game from husband-and-wife team Falcon Development. It began as a hobby project in May of 2016 and proceeded to blow its Kickstarter goal out of the water a year later. The story of an abandoned house cat learning to live in the wild, it involves a rotation of seasons, hunting and gathering, raising kittens with your cat spouse, and, oh yes, fighting in the glorious cat colony war. It would be easy to declare Cattails to be "Stardew Valley but with cats". Sure, it has seasons and a central narrative about a single, hard-working outsider revitalizing a community. But that description misses the best part of Cattails. It isn’t "Stardew Valley but with cats". It’s "Risk but with cats".
Let slip the cats of war
Every morning, Ragnar Pawbrok (that’s me) wakes up in his den, has a good stretch, and assesses the battle lines for the day. The forest is divided into a grid, each square controlled by one of the three cat colonies. At the center is the Sacred Temple, neutral ground where all three clans meet at the end of every season for a ceasefire celebration. Battle rages in two sectors every day.
Ragnar Pawbrok is on the front lines without fail, fighting beside the other mountain cats to claim territory. Each section is a three-way tug between the colonies where daily battles decide whose influence prevails. Ragnar is spread thin most days, running from one end of the forest to the other to support his fighters. He hunts along the way, eating whatever birds, bunnies, and fish he can catch. By sundown, conflicts are resolved. The cats fight until one side is devestated. At midnight, the fighting breaks out again like clockwork and the battle lines are drawn anew.
More than once, I ve spent a whole day and night running about the map to secure land for the mountain cats.
Each day, I drag Ragnar back and forth across the map. The two sectors where fighting takes place for the day are sometimes adjacent, but often a long trot away. After winning the melees, the next task is boosting influence in sectors that are on the verge of being overturned. My diplomacy skill is the first protective measure; my handfuls of lavender are the second. It gives a very small boost to my clan in a section of the map, but I’ve begun growing my own supply of useful plants in the small four-plot garden that I added to my den.
Wars before chores
Cattails offers a familiar choice: how will you spend your time? You can hunt, gather, make friends, visit the mines, or fight against other factions. Most of those activities play out how I’d anticipated. Taking and controlling territory in the forest, though, can quickly consume the entire day. More than once, I’ve spent a whole day and night running about the map to secure land for the mountain cats. Fortunately, cats don’t mind staying up all night, so passing out on the way back to the den isn’t a concern.
Fighting other cats yields coins and experience that can be spent on character and stat upgrades. Coins ("mews") are used to buy food and supplies at what passes for a cat store or on upgrading the den. Experience is spent on either one of four attributes (hunting, fighting, swimming, and foraging) or active skills. To satisfy my warlike tendencies, Ragnar’s experience went first to upgrading his fighting ability and then to unlocking useful skills. The diplomacy skill, for example, increases the influence of my colony in whatever sector of the map I’m standing in.
Under my steady paw, there will be only one cat clan.
The greatest sense of accomplishment I’ve had in Cattails hasn’t come from marrying my cat partner (Robin) or helping awaken the ancient obelisks beneath the Sacred Shrine. Ragnar Pawbrok springs out of his den every morning for the glory of battle. Nothing feels better than taking on three enemy cats at once and laughing cruelly to myself with the knowledge that they’re outmatched, even though they have me outnumbered.
Ragnar is a terror on the battlefield. His health is superior. The damage he deals with his claws is unrivaled. He can call in allies with one skill and heal them with another. After the (imagined) carnage, he uses his diplomatic abilities to fully secure the area for the mountain clan, stomping out the last vestiges of his foes.
This is how I have spent every day in Cattails thus far. Despite the adorable cat portraits and upbeat soundtrack, I’m completely immersed in the Viking cat-conqueror narrative that I’ve invented. I’m obsessed with dominating the forest. Bring balance to the factions? I think not. Under my steady paw, there will be only one cat clan. The forest will be unified under the banner of the mountain cats.
Cattails admirably follows in the pawprints of other charming seasonal life sims, but it has earned a more permanent place in my memory thanks to the way it allowed me to imagine a decade-long war campaign fronted by Ragnar the fluffy-tailed Viking.
