You are a cat. You live in a house. You share this house with your pet Hoomin. You goal is to lavish this Hoomin with Affection while causing Mischief elsewhere in the house. The first cat to score 9 Mischief points wins the game!

Cantankerous Cats is a light weight, competitive card game centered around the feline propensity for mischief, cunning, and Schadenfreude. Players follow a basic Draw 3, Play 2 format with the ability to attack and interrupt other players. While a game with new players tends to be very polite and rigid; seasoned players will find a faster, brutal game that rewards clever use of hand management, probability, and cunning.

The game now features THREE ways to play: "Kitten" for families and party gamers | "Basic" for casual players | "Advanced" (formerly Standard) for tournament level play. All rules can be downloaded here on BGG or from the publisher's website.
