Sega RoboCat

Sega has had robotic cats and dogs out for a little while now, and it seems like the cat has been popular enough to spawn an updated version, called something that I guess translates into “Dream Cat Venus.” From the brief description in the UK’s Daily Mail, it looks to do a few basic cat-like things such as sleeping and purring when you touch it. It’ll also meow when it wants attention and yowl if you pull its tail. Seems just like a real cat to me, except you can use rechargeable batteries instead of paying for food over and over, so it’s actually better.

Dream Cat Venus will go on sale in July for somewhere around $150.

Do you have a video of Sega’s Dream Cat Venus? I would love to see it!
