# Background of Project

With the rise of the pet economy, pets have become the most important companions in people's lives and cherished members of their families. In the 1990s, electronic pets gained popularity, even though they could only offer simple growth and interaction. People treasured these small handheld virtual pets.

In 2016, the film "Zootopia" emerged and captivated audiences. The story depicted a "modern animal metropolis where each species has its own habitat, including the Sahara Square with desert climate and the frigid Tundratown. It's like a melting pot, where animals live together in harmony—whether elephants or mice, and with effort, they can all make a mark." The film "Ready Player One" also showcased the boundless possibilities of future technological experiences.

These developments have filled us with excitement. With the advancement of technology, artificial intelligence and blockchain have been evolving rapidly. Through their combination, the scenarios depicted in movies are not impossible to achieve. Both in terms of technology and imagination, they bring new possibilities and directions for the development of the virtual pet industry.

We aspire to provide players with a completely different virtual pet gaming experience. The pet cats in "Catopia" will eventually enter a smart city, where they will have their own lives, jobs, and companions. As their owner—you—you will witness all of this unfold. Their lives and their owners will be inseparable, tightly connected together.
