This First Person Mod For Stray Lets You See Life Through A Cat's Eyes
Sometimes, it can be difficult getting into a cat’s head. Does that meow mean they’re hungry? Playful? Do they want cuddles, or does that adorably exposed belly fur just a clever ruse to rip a poor unsuspecting cat lover’s arm to tiny ribbons?

The Stray First Person Mod is exactly what it sounds like. Enabling this mod swaps Stray’s typical behind-the-back camera to one that sits squarely between the eyes of the game’s feline protagonist. Pad along the cyberpunk streets of robot city and see the world through the eyes of a cat.
You can download the mod over on NexusMods courtesy of creator Jessica Natalia. Installation is easy; just download the file and extract it into your game’s install folder. Jessica notes in the readme that the mod might even work on platforms other than PC.
The mod isn’t perfect, however. There’s a bug where the cat will appear on camera whenever you jump or run too fast, giving you a perfect view of the cat’s behind.
