Hardcore Gamer: Cats are awesome animals. Beloved by the internet and pet owners alike, an adorable little kitty is worth its weight in gold. After just hearing the name, some may believe My Little Kitties is some form of Nintendogs knock-off. Not in the least. Instead, this visual novel comes with quite the odd premise. In this world, the souls of cats have mysterious properties that allow them to transform from cat into human. Once a human, they have all the abilities that humans have – speaking, walking and the like.
Haru is a teenage boy who seems to attract animals. In his garden a mother cat passed away and Haru started to care for her kitten, Nuri. Bakenekos are cats that can shape shift into human form by using spiritual energy. Nuri happens to be a Bakeneko along with another slightly older kitten name Sora who also starts to live with Haru. Yura, who manages the existence of souls, takes a liking to Haru as well and spends a lot of time at his house. To complicate matters, she longs to have descendants with him.
Hardcore Gamer: My Little Kitties tells the story of a boy and what are known as “bakenekos.” Apparently, this is the term for a cat’s spirit which is so attached to this world that it sticks around. It seems now that this child’s life is filled with bakenekos.
