This one is ideal for cat lovers that are allergic to cats. Or if you simply can’t have cats in your apartment for one reason or another. It’s called the Dream Cat Smile (translation from japanese) and it’s a robo-cat. It’s 13 inches in height and weighs 4.5lbs, running on 3 batteries. It acts like a cat with the help of the 5 sensors hidden in different parts of its body, reacting when you touch it.

Yume Neko won’t chase mice but she’ll blink, move her mouth, her neck, rear up and lie down, all the time purring, meowing and - should you upset her by squeezing her tail - hissing. After a period of being left to her own devices, like most cats, she’ll fall asleep, briefly snoring before settling down into a low-power mode.
