Stray is not only critically acclaimed, but it is very popular with players and cat lovers.
Thanks to a selection of fans, quite a bit of money has been raised to help various shelters and rescues accommodate and treat the homeless cats in their care.
Speaking with PBS News Hour, Brendan Gepson of the Nebraska Humane Society said the shelter sold several game codes through its Twitter account. Selling for $5 each, the initial fundraiser raised about $8,000.
