Released on July 19, Stray has quickly become a small summer phenomenon since it features a little cat who must find his way in a city with a cyberpunk atmosphere. Very quickly, Internet users shared their best videos, sometimes with their real pet cat staring at the television screen. This great interest in our felines has not failed to attract the attention of the SPA, which wishes to take advantage of the success of the game in order to raise awareness about the abandonment, but also the adoption of cats. Especially during this summer vacation period when the French hold the sad record for the number of abandonments. The SPA therefore had fun creating mods in order to be able to embody 5 stray cats (Pastelle, Doc, P'tite Shrimp, Zoya and Câline) truly present in shelters and which were modeled in the game. give visibility and promote their rapid adoption, but also a way to highlight all cats waiting for a better life. 
When we saw the success of the Stray game, we immediately thought that this enthusiasm should be put at the service of the SPA and the thousands of abandoned cats waiting for a family. By modeling these five cats, all five of whom are in an emergency situation, we offer them unprecedented visibility and through them, we highlight the SPA's fight for adoption and against abandonment.
This summer has been particularly difficult for our teams as they have had to deal with the saturation of our 63 refuges and SPA houses. They have cared for more than 10 cats who are now waiting for a new family. What better than a successful game to highlight them? We are proud to present five cats that we have taken in and we hope that they will become ambassadors for the thousands of abandoned cats in our shelters. Beyond knowing them in a virtual world, we hope that players will push the doors of our refuges to establish a real contact with them and become responsible adopters in order to offer them a new life.
Developed by the young French studio BlueTwelve (they are based in Montpellier), Stray not only won over the press with an average of 83% on Metacritic, but also the players who gave it an average of 8.2/10 in user rating. We hope that the developers are preparing additional content, the game being a bit short (between 4 and 6 hours of play), and that other mods will be added to those of the SPA.
