Cute and fun!
Did a blind playthrough, took me one completed run (58/58 cats saved!) to realize I could throw cats, haha.
Thought the cat counter was bugged at first, before realizing some cats were kittens and not throwable.
Ended the second run with 36/58 cats, and 22/24 enemies defeated, totaling 58. Looks like there are two adult cats too few for full completion.
