	~~Players achieve this by matching the toys the~~ cat ~~requires by positioning their four left most~~ toys. ~~You can see~~ the toys ~~each cat requires by looking~~ in ~~the~~ positions 1 to 4 at the bottom of each cat card. There is, by default a player preference setting that highlights a cat when the toys it requires are in the correct positions. Advanced players will most likely feel they don't require this assistance and turn this preference off.		Each cat is attracted to different toys, and in a different order. Each cat card lists the toys that attract them, and in specific positions, 1 to 4.

	~~There is a second player preference designed to help new players that will highlight cats and~~ toys ~~that have a toy~~ in the ~~correct~~ position. ~~This activated by hovering over a toy~~. ~~This preference is also turned on by default~~.		Play happens simultaneously. Players place their four toys in order. You can exchange the position of two toy cards by clicking on them both. With the selection finalised hit the confirm button. When both players are ready, selections are revealed.

	~~Red~~, ~~yellow~~ and ~~blue cats have two toys whilst black and white cats have three toys making them harder to attract and worth more points~~.		Toys in each position are compared to one another. The stronger toy eliminates the weaker toy. Relative strength of the toys are on the reference card on the bottom left, and also on each toy card. For example, a mouse is weaker than yarn, but is stronger than the feather. It is not affected by the laser pointer, catnip, or scratching post.

	~~You can exchange the position of two toy cards by clicking on them both.~~		Each cat is then checked to see if it has been attracted by a player. The player attracting a cat takes it to their scoring pile. If a cat is attracted by both players it is discarded and replaced by a new cat from the deck.

	~~With the selection finalised hit the confirm button.~~

	Then your opponent's corresponding toy is compared to yours - if one is weaker it is eliminated from this round. The relative strength of the toys in given in the reference card bottom left. So, for example, if your toy in position 1 is a mouse, it is weaker than yarn and stronger than the feather. It has no effect or is not effected by the laser pointer, catnip or scratching post.

	Each cat is then checked to see if it has been attracted by a player. If a cat is attracted by both players it is discarded and replaced by a new cat from the deck.

	If no cat is attracted for two successive rounds, each player must select a cat to be discarded and replaced.		If no cat is attracted for two successive rounds, each player must select a cat to be discarded and replaced.
