My kitties get upset when I give them a new yard to play in. It takes them a few days to start giving me gold fish again. Silver fish I get all the time.
This is a pretty cute app game that you folks may love. It's called "Neko Atsume" which roughly translates to Cat Collect, but in English, it's called Kitty Collector, or Neko Atsume: Kitty Collector. The goal of the game is to put toys and food in your yard to lure cats, and you can take pictures of them with the camera to catalog them in your cat book. Special cats, called 'rare cats' show up when their favorite toys or food are in your yard. However, getting the cats to show up and catching them to take a picture, is not the 'end game'. Once a cat shows up enough times, they start trust and love you more, eventually enough to give you a Memento. Each cat, even rare cats give mementoes, it's just a matter of making your yard appealing and comfortable enough and for long enough, that they will give you one.
It's pretty cute, the cats have super cute poses, and many objects and toys have multiple poses for multiple cats. It's not a game you have to brood over or grind through, and it doesn't constantly connect to the internet, or really at all unless you make a transaction. It's just a game you check in the morning or evening or whenever you happen to look at your device. It sure has brought me loads of amusement!
I don't want to overload you folks with screenshots, but here's a few cute ones. Let me know if you play it already or plan to! I'd love to know what you think of it!

You put out carrots items and food, and the rare cats will come. Like the pyramid to get the Pharoah cat, or the baseball is to get "Joe demeowgio". I Googled the app, it's very popular. Lots of info.
