A few of the words

POUNCE
A cat compresses its whole body before a pounce, that signature crouch lowers the center of gravity and coils the hind legs like a spring ready to release.Find this word in the grid to read its note.
YARN
The looping, unpredictable movement of a rolling yarn ball mimics the erratic scurry of prey, which is exactly why cats find it so irresistible.Find this word in the grid to read its note.
SCRATCH
Scratching isn't just sharpening claws, cats have scent glands in their paw pads, so every scratch on the post or the rug is also a personal calling card.Find this word in the grid to read its note.
FEATHER
Feather wands became a staple of cat toy design because the light, fluttery movement closely imitates the flight pattern of a bird, triggering a cat's deepest hunting instincts.Find this word in the grid to read its note.

Cat at Play: a free large-print word search

Cat at Play, a free, large-print word search full of pounces, feathers, and the joyful chaos of a frisky feline on the rug.

About Cat at Play

A cat at play is pure, unscripted theater, the slow creeping crouch, the tail tip twitching with barely-contained energy, and then the sudden explosive pounce across the rug. A dangled feather or a rolling ball of yarn can hold a cat's attention for what feels like hours, each swipe and leap a reminder of the skilled hunter underneath the soft fur. Even the oldest house cat can be coaxed into a game, eyes wide and whiskers forward, completely alive in the moment.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last. The trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft colour on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.Relaxed, Classic or Challenging set those directions and how much the word list helps, never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
