Plot
The story in Cats and the Other Lives focuses on the fate of the Mason family who, due to an unfortunate event - the death of their grandfather Bernard - gather at the family estate to say goodbye to him.

Taking on the role of Aspen the cat, we gradually learn the secrets of the family, delving into the history of several generations.
