According to the video, here are five realistic details about the cats in Stray:
- Cats are naturally curious and playful animals.
- They usually sleep between 12 and 18 hours a day but those who live outside don’t get that because they have to be alert to danger.
- Cats that are homeless or allowed to roam outdoors can get injured or get lost.
- Scratching is a normal, instinctive cat behavior and should not be punished.
- Cats that are released outdoors are more likely to contract life-threatening parasites.
The life of a stray cat
PETA said in the video’s description: “For a game about a homeless cat roaming a cyber world full of robots, Stray was rated highest by PETA for its accuracy.”
The organization has previously taken down several video games such as Far Cry 6 and Mario to depict animals in ways that might promote cruelty towards them. For example, Far Cry 6’s cockfights and Mario’s Tanooki suit have been criticized by the organization.
