General trophy information
- There are a total of 25 trophies to earn in Stray - 1 platinum trophy (only available on PS4 and PS5), 7 gold trophies, 9 silver trophies and 8 bronze trophies.
- Some trophies can be missed, because they can force you to e.g. successfully sneak through enemy territory or avoid eliminating monsters.Fortunately, there is an option to replay stages in the game, which is especially useful for finding collectibles you've missed. When the option is available, you can also pause the game and restart at a checkpoint (e.g. right after you are detected).
- One of the trophies is requires a speedrun - completing the game in a maximum of 2 hours. It is best to leave this type of achievements for next playthroughs in order to first get to know the game and all the dangers and puzzles.
- Several trophies are related to collectibles, incl. B-12 robot memories and badges.The collectibles you've obtained aren't saved immediately - you have to reach a checkpoint first. Keep this in mind when replaying chapters, because the game might not count a specific action if you haven't reached a new checkpoint.
All Done
- How to unlock: Unlock all trophies.
- Trophy type: platinum
- Comment: Platinum in Stray can be obtained on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
A Little Chatty
- How to unlock: Meow 100 times.
- Trophy type: silver
- Comment: By default, you can meow by pressing Circle (on the PS4/PS5 pad). There are no limits on meowing, which allows you to unlock the trophy early in the game.
Cat-a-Pult
- How to unlock: Jump up 500 times.
- Trophy type: silver
- Comment: You should get this achievement during normal gameplay. Jumping is needed to reach higher and lower ledges and platforms. You can't jump "on demand", but that's not a problem, because climbing is one of the key aspects of the game.
Productive Day
- How to unlock: Sleep for more than an hour.
- Trophy type: silver
- Comment: In the game, you can find places to sleep, for example the one pictured above in Clementine's apartment during Chapter 10 (Midtown). It's best to leave the game for an hour (without closing it) to get this achievement.
Boom Chat Kalaka
- How to unlock: Dunk the basketball.
- Trophy type: bronze
- Comment: You can find the basketball in the slums (stages 4 and 6) near the location of the Guardian. Your task is to push the ball into the bottom hole pictured in the screenshot above, but make sure to push it at the right angle. It's easy to make a mistake here. You can't push the ball back to the top, so you'll have to resort to loading your last save if you fail.
Can't Cat-ch Me
- How to unlock: Complete the first Zurk pursuit without being caught.
- Trophy type: gold
- Comment: This is one of the most challenging trophies, and it's tied to the Dead City chase from Chapter 2. You need to avoid the zurks without making a single mistake - run in a zigzag pattern to dodge the jumping monsters and remember exactly where the zurks will appear next to avoid running into them. In case you fail (i.e. a zurk grabs onto you), pause the game and load the previous checkpoint.
Sneakitty
- How to unlock: Go through Midtown without being detected by the Sentinels.
- Trophy type: silver
Comment: We've explained how to avoid the Sentinels in the walkthrough of chapter 10 - Midtown. As a reminder, you need to pay attention to the cones indicating the field of view of the enemy drones and sneak past them once they turn around or fly in the opposite direction. Use cover to make this easier. To get this achievement, you have to avoid the Sentinels a total of 3 times:
- While traversing the factory on the way to the location containing batteries.
- On the way to Clementine's apartment after visiting the factory.
- During the escape from Clementine's apartment - the achievement should unlock after you move away from the apartment block (pictured above).
If you are spotted, quickly pause the game and load the last checkpoint to try again.
No More Lives
- How to unlock: Die 9 times.
- Trophy type: bronze
- Comment: Beat the entire game first, as you'll almost certainly die several times. You can then select any stage with zurks or drones and die on purpose.
Scratch
- How to unlock: Scratch the vinyl in the club.
- Trophy type: bronze
- Comment: You will visit the nightclub in the last part of chapter 10 - Midtown. Take your time reaching the VIP area on the second floor. Explore the club's ground floor. On one of the tables, you will find a vinyl record that you have to grab with your muzzle.
Bring the record to the DJ booth. Place it in the device and press the interaction button to start scratching it.
Pacifist
- How to unlock: Complete the Sewers without killing any Zurks.
- Trophy type: gold
Comment: You will visit The Sewers in Chapter 8. To earn this trophy, you can't use the Defluxor, i.e. the UV lamp that allows you to kill zurks. Instead, you need to:
- opt to run as much as possible,
- avoid approaching eggs to prevent monsters from hatching from them
You will receive this achievement at the end of the final sewer escape scene.
I Am Speed
- How to unlock: Complete the game in less than 2 hours.
- Trophy type: gold
- Comment: It's best to leave this achievement for the second playthrough, so that you're already familiar with the stages, know the correct sequence of actions and can avoid roaming around larger locations, such as the slums or the city. You can also use our walkthrough to remind yourself of the required steps and pause the game to stop the timer.

Curiosity Killed the Cat
- How to unlock: Wear the paper bag.
- Trophy type: bronze
- Comment: Bags can be found in several locations in the game and the first one can be found in the slums. The one from the picture above can be found near the place where you encounter machines for the first time. You just need to interact with it to put it on, which will net you the achievement immediately. Putting on the bag won't kill your cat, it will simply drop it after a few seconds.
Cat-a-strophe
- How to unlock: Try to play mahjong with the robots.
- Trophy type: bronze
- Comment: You can get this trophy in Chapter 9 - Antvillage. On one of the lower levels of the village, you will find 2 mahjong machines. Jump on the round table to interrupt their game.
Cat's Best Friend
- How to unlock: Nuzzle up against 5 robots.
- Trophy type: silver
- Comment: The game lets you rub against certain machines - an interaction button icon will appear next to their lower limbs (Triangle on the PS4/PS5 pad). Take advantage of every such opportunity and you should get the trophy during the Midtown stage.
I Remember!

Territory
- How to unlock: Scratch in every chapter.
- Trophy type: silver
- Comment: Your cat can scratch various objects, e.g. carpets or wallpaper. These spots will display the interaction button icon (Triangle on PS4 and PS5) - then you have to press the buttons to move your front paws (L2 and R2). You only need to do this for a short moment. Make sure to investigate the smaller stages in greater detail, since you'll have fewer opportunities to scratch environmental objects.
