The cats
Drawn by hand, one cat at a time
One Meow has 15 cats so far, each drawn in ink by Jane Kott. You collect them by writing: each cat comes with something you do, from your first line to a whole year of them.

How collecting works
When you do the thing a cat asks, it joins your cat shelf with a small celebration. Open the shelf any time to see who you've met and what the next cat needs. Missing a day never takes a cat away.
The cats also keep you company around the app: one for each mood and one on the On this day card.
