New Launch Date: June 14th | Community Alpha Test signups now live!
Hello all,
Heist Kitty will be launching on June 14th!
For those of you that just can't wait to get your paws on the game, we're launching a Community Alpha Test (C.A.T) - register now to guarantee a spot as places are limited!
Head to the storepage, scroll down and request access:
Community Alpha Test (C.A.T)
If selected for this playtest, you will receive temporary access to the whole of the game (there may be some mice bugs present - and we'd like your help to find and catch them). This will be a singleplayer and multiplayer (online) test, so invite your feline friends to play!
We kindly ask that you join our Discord to report any issues you find with the game, or just to chat to us about what you liked and didn't like! We're really keen to work with our community and have some extra content updates planned post-launch, so we'd love to hear some feedback from you.
If Discord isn't your thing, we're also active on the Steam Discussion forums so feel free to leave some feedback on there.
The test will launch on 15th May and will last just over 2 weeks, ending on 30th May when access to the game will be removed. There won't be too much longer to wait until launch though!
We have just finished the new Cat Creator feature. We've had so much fun making cats we thought we would release it as a demo for you to try! 😺
Adjust the body style, fur pattern and colours of your cat to completely customise it: Once you've created your own cat, there's a small demo world so you can see your kitty in action and meet some of our feline friends.
We'd really love to see the new furry friends you make so post them in our Discord server, in the Steam discussion forums or tag us on Twitter / Facebook!
Here's Spartacus (AKA Mr Sparkles), our British Shorthair!

Meow! The Heist Kitty Team
Welcome to Heist Kitty: Cats Go a Stray!
Hello all,
We're happy to announce a brand new name for our game - Heist Kitty: Cats Go a Stray! This name change comes with some exciting news: we have signed on with indie publisher Excalibur Games.
This partnership will allow us to reach more players, but don't worry! The heart of our game will remain true to our vision - in fact, with support from the publisher, we're able to expand the scope of the project in some ways too! We'll have more to share about Heist Kitty soon, so keep an eye out for Steam announcements.
Upcoming Alpha Tests
You may notice that the Steam demo for Heist Kitty: Cats Go a Stray has been removed. However, we would still love for you to play early and help us shape the game as we move towards our launch next year, which is why we will be running alpha tests in the coming months!
For a chance to participate in future alphas, chat with us and the Excalibur team directly, and meet other players, join our new Heist Kitty Discord:
We updated the demo by making some changes to the layout of the apartment you start in at the beginning of the game. We also fixed several bugs in the game. Enjoy!
Grand Theft Gato Demo now available
Our Grand Theft Gato demo is now available. Be a cat that gets to drive cars, scale buildings, steals, gets into back-alley fights, shoot out of cannons, or upholds the cat laws. Kitty City of Vice is an open world waiting to be explored. Bring some friends or go solo. Which side will you choose after playing the demo? Purrlice? Meowfia?
