Game-Inspired Cat Carriers

'Stray' Launches a Limited Edition Backpack Ahead of the Game's Release

— July 18, 2022 — Lifestyle
The upcoming video game ‘Stray’ follows the journey of an orange tabby cat as it seeks to explore beautiful, uncharted territories. The creators of the adventure game have tapped pet accessory brand Travel Cat for a limited edition cat carrier backpack, leash, and matching harness. The backpack adopts the vibrant color palette of the game, boasting a black base with pink, yellow, and blue accents that references its cyberpunk aesthetic. The backpack also features a window for your cat to sight-see through from its seat, three breathing holes, and a supported weight of 25 pounds. The harness and leash arrive in a classic black shade with an added reflective strip around it to make your cat visible in the darkest of nights.


The Stray x Travel Cat merchandise for your furry companion is available for preorder on the Travel Cat website. 'Stray' will launch on July 19 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC.
