CursorCat actually chases your cursor
This cute cat chases your visitor's mouse cursor all around
Drop this into any site and a little cat appears, chasing your visitor's mouse around the screen with realistic inertia. It walks, runs, sprints, stalks, pounces, swats, climbs, and finally catches the cursor when it slows down — then settles into idle poses and takes a little walk on its own when nobody's moving the mouse. What's included: The widget (cat-laser.js + cat-laser.css), plug-and-play The full cat sprite sheet, pre-built and ready to use Full source code, fully commented
I’ve always loved subtle, interactive elements on websites, but most cursor-following scripts felt clunky, robotic, or choppy. So I decided to build a custom physics engine for a cat that follows your cursor with smooth, realistic movement and natural acceleration/deceleration

Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Orlando, creator of cursorcat.
I’ve always loved subtle, interactive elements on websites, but most cursor-following scripts felt clunky, robotic, or choppy. So I decided to build a custom physics engine for a cat that follows your cursor with smooth, realistic movement and natural acceleration/deceleration
