Shimeji Whiskbyte – Interactive Browser Pet

Shimeji Whiskbyte puts an interactive browser pet on everyday web pages for people who want a small cat companion while they work, study, or read. This virtual pet is one animated tabby with care needs, moods, and games you can play directly on the page. ✨ WHAT IT DOES • Keep a browser cat nearby as it walks, runs, sits, stretches, grooms, and sleeps. • Pet your companion, make it purr, double-click to jump, or drag and release it to throw it. • Play ten interactions together, including high fives, nose boops, tickling, cuddling, peekaboo, laser chase, and fetch. Each game has a hint explaining what to do next. • Feed your cat, give it water, use the litter box, and help it rest. Five care bars show food, water, energy, litter, and fun. • Name your cat and choose its gender. Move the food bowl, water bowl, litter box, and bed to make room on the page. • Open controls from the toolbar or the panel on the page. Hide the pet across pages until you enable it again. 🚀 HOW TO USE 1. Install the extension and follow the welcome page to get started. 2. Pin the extension to the toolbar and open or reload an ordinary website. 3. Use the page panel for care and actions. Expand Together to start a game, or right-click the cat for its action menu. 🎯 WHO IT'S FOR People who enjoy a shimeji companion while reading or browsing. Cat lovers who want short, playful breaks between tasks. Students and people working at a computer who enjoy looking after a virtual companion. 🔒 PRIVACY Pet settings and care state stay in local extension storage on your device. There are no accounts, advertising, analytics, or telemetry in the extension. All character images and code are packaged locally. Pointer games use cursor movement. The Listen interaction responds to typing rhythm while active; typed text is never read, saved, or sent. The extension does not collect page content or browsing history. ❓ FAQ Where does the shimeji appear? On ordinary HTTP and HTTPS web pages. Chrome internal pages, the Chrome Web Store, and other protected pages do not allow the pet to appear. Can I use the controls with a keyboard? Yes. Tab reaches controls. With the cat focused, Enter pets it, Space makes it jump, and Shift+F10 opens its menu. Escape closes the menu or page panel. Will a long break empty every care bar? Care decay during an absence is limited, and sleep restores energy. Automatic care also helps when needs run low. The extension has no in-app purchases or paid feature gates in the current version.
