Very Hungry Cat seeks to spark joy and compassion by feeding a virtual cat. In this interactive application a friendly feline towers over the viewer as they collect food in its bowl, waiting in anticipation for unprocessed food. Within its cultural and scientific layers, Very Hungry Cat explores themes of empathy and responsibility, encouraging viewers to reflect on how they treat animals.
