Spooky season is back until November 5! Pick your Dockitty, name it, and now you can pet it too.
Life is hard. Work is stressful. Your Dock has a cat now, and somehow, that fixes everything.
Dockitty is a delightful throwback to the golden age of desktop pets: animated, charming, and completely non-intrusive. Choose your cat, give it a name, and watch it bring unexpected joy to your workday.
WHAT MAKES DOCKITTY SPECIAL
* Pure, Simple Joy: Not a productivity tool. Not a distraction. Just a cozy companion that makes you smile.
* Lives in Your Dock: Unlike other desktop pets, your cat IS the app icon. Always visible, never in the way.
* Gorgeous Pixel Art: Each cat was drawn frame by frame, by hand, one pixel at a time.
* Actually Fun to Interact With: Drag and drop files to feed it. Give your cat a bath. Right-click to watch it sit, sleep, run, jump, attack, or dramatically die. Watch it react to everything.
* Walking Mode: Let your cat escape the Dock and roam freely. Follow the mouse, haunt the Dock edges, explore anywhere. Try Window Napper and watch your cat wander toward the tops of your app windows and settle in for a nap.
* Squad Mode: Create your own cat squad! Add as many cats as you want, then release them all to walk together. The more, the merrier.
* Seasonal Collections: New themed cats for Halloween, Christmas, and more. Keep your Dock fresh year-round.

Complete Disappointment: Greedy Microtransactions
AlexD22
The app itself is fine, but the developers' greed completely ruins the experience. Charging an extra $9.99 just to unlock three Halloween-themed cats is an absolute rip-off and an insult to users.I understand in-app purchases when they add meaningful features or substantial content, but charging that much for just three seasonal cosmetics is absurd. Instead of rewarding or engaging their community with fun seasonal events, they choose to cash-grab at every opportunity.I cannot recommend supporting these kinds of predatory pricing practices. I hope the developers rethink their monetization strategy, because pricing models like this will only drive users away.
Developer Response
Thanks for the feedback, and I'm sorry the pricing came across as a cash grab. I think there may be a mix-up, though: the Halloween cats are $2.99, not $9.99. The $9.99 is probably the Classic Pack, which unlocks 10+ cats.Two cats are free, and buying more is completely optional. It's just a way to support my work if you enjoy the app. I want it to stay a light, fun little app, so there's no pressure at all. Hope you'll keep enjoying it!
Oh, just so wonderful.
i like it but it's still bad
My boy is a total joy to have around my MacBook. He greets me in the Morning, in the Evening, and in the midst of Night. No matter the time, he is joyful to see you return. He walks around my screen, sleeps, bathes..Lovely lad, just so lovely. And he’s free. Here’s a tip, rename his file.
