Just an open world survival game, only you're a cat, dealing with regular cat problems. You have to hunt, avoid larger animals, compete with other cats, figure out which humans are dangerous and which will give you treats, judiciously spray things to maintain your territory, maybe mate and reproduce (your sex and fertility status are basically difficulty settings), etc.

You start out as a housecat going on a spring vacation with your family, and that's the tutorial section. Then your humans accidentally leave you behind at their country vacation home, and then the difficulty is just the passing of seasons. See if you can survive winter and see your humans again next spring.

I think if someone went all out with making some sort of bizarre simulator game like this, people would play it. Like, don't even try to make it fun or add a story or anything, just make it as real as you can.

I mean, maybe try to make it a little fun

Lol, I suppose that's fair.

But people play lawn mowing simulator, power washing simulator, and truck simulator mostly for the realism.

Power Washing sim because its satisfying, dont own it myself but watched a buddy play for a good few hours

I have played a lot of powerwash simulator. It is very satisfying. Not quite as much as real powerwashing though.
