How to play Cats
Cats is played on a 5×3 grid with 30 lines: matching symbols must land from left to right on an active payline.
- Set your bet with the stake control; the bet covers every line or way, so there is nothing else to configure.
- Spin, or use autoplay with a loss limit.
- Watch for scatters, which usually start the free spins round.
- Check the paytable in the game menu: it shows symbol values in coins or in dollars for your current bet.
Cats features and free spins
The main mechanics of Cats:
The free spins round is where Cats earns its max win, so the base game mostly keeps the balance ticking over between features.
Cats RTP
Cats has a default RTP of 94.93%. Over a very large number of spins, that means C$94.93 returned for every C$100 bet on average; any single session can be far above or below that.
Casinos choose which RTP version to run. Open the game's information or help screen before you play: the RTP is listed there, and it is the figure that applies at that casino.
At 94.93%, Cats returns less than the typical 96% of modern slots.
Volatility and max win
Cats has medium volatility: a balance of regular small wins and occasional bigger features, which makes it a steady choice for longer sessions.

The free Cats demo on this page loads from IGT's own server and uses the same maths as the real-money game, with play credits instead of cash. It is the easiest way to see how often the features land before you deposit. See all free slots with demos.
