Ofc! Glad to be of help! :D

It took me a week of playing this game to realise you can also change the colors of the little icons at the top of the screen using the brush tool. Omg... this game has so many little details hidden around. It's made with so much love. Thank you for this

I love this game. Does the NY in I <3 NY stand for New Yolk? [egg laugh emoji]

Hi! I had almost no strays ever show and when they did it was only 1 at a time. I placed all my food and toys outside and I started getting more. The beds dont seem to affect the odds, but if you put food and toys outside they will spawn more. Still, I don't know if you can get more than 4 at a time, but you should have a steady influx of new strays this way. I also think the more cats you adopt, the more stuff you need to get in new strays, so that's something to keep in mind as you adopt more Kittytoys

UPDATE: I found these helpful tips right on the creator's profile here on Itch.io!

Since you're here... have some super secret gamer tips for KittyToy!

• Kitties lose happiness if any of their needs are empty, but as long as all their needs are met, their happiness increases slowly over time.
• You can pet kitties with your cursor, which (aside from melting your heart) increases their happiness.
• Sleeping in beds (but not boxes), playing with yarn balls, and eating KittyYumz or tuna fill kitty happiness directly.
• Cats only play with balls if they see them moving, but if they're bored enough, they'll play with the other toys without prompting.
• Leaving out more food affects the rate at which new kitties arrive, whereas more toys (and also scratch posts) will increase the limit of how many kitties can be present at once.
  • The more expensive the food, the more of an effect it has on kitty visit rate (but yummier foods are more enticing to kitties, even if they aren't very hungry, so the food goes fast!)
  • Balloons are only worth half a toy, while scratch posts (including couches and cat grass) are worth two toys.
  • There is a hard cap on the limit of visiting kitties (toys), but there is not a cap on the rate (food). There are diminishing returns on both after a point though.
• Adopting kitties is an investment. As long as you keep them happy, they regularly give you the full 10 kittycoins, without having to raise happiness from scratch as you have to do with stray kitties. The only downside is not getting to enjoy the variety of visiting kitties!ª
