Fun board game as you race around the World, learning fascinating facts along the way. Great for children to learn about different countries and capitals whilst playing.

The Classic Game Made Purrfect!

Yes, it’s Monopoly for Cat lovers! All the excitement of the famous board game with a witty twist, a feline frenzy of fun! Rather than properties in Monopoly, collect cat breeds, from a Manx to a Siamese and the more expensive Persian (very Park Lane), with each cat card filled with fun facts. Choose your favourite playing piece, from a ball of yarn to a sardine tin and set off, collecting litter boxes and trading them in for fish bones (of course). But try to avoid the cat-astrophe squares – you might be fined for chasing mice or have to pay dog tax to get past the bulldog. Definitely don’t fall in the water and be out for three turns – nobody likes a soggy moggie! The perfect gift to leave any cat lover feline good!
