    Definitely think the screaming voice he hears at night is his own conscience regretting him leaving his home. When he tells it to shut up, he’s come to the conclusion he needs to return home.

    This is one of my favorite videos on CZcams that I find myself constantly coming back to. For me the part that brings me comfort is that the cat can go and have an adventure, his family still loves him and are looking for him. And when he decides to go back home, they accept him back no questions asked. I think everyone wishes they had someone, a family to run to when things get too hard.

    "Cat City is a movie about a cat who runs away from home to start a new life in the city. The cat is trying to live on his own, but his life away from home isn’t what he imagined it would be. Despite his initial success, he becomes disillusioned by the whole ordeal rather than finding fulfillment or happiness. He becomes depressed due to lack of sleep and the repetitive nature of his life, and he turns to alcohol to cope with the stress. It all goes downhill from there. I wanted to portray a world where a character’s experience in the physical world is a reflection of their emotional turmoil. In a way, it parallels my own experience of growing up and leaving home to pursue what I thought was my dream, and then slowly realizing it wasn’t what I thought it would be."

    The story is basically, the adult life when you move out of home. The depiction is clear, too lazy to explain but. You want something, then work. Living alone, having fun at night. But the city life is noisy, unpeaceful. An everyday repeat, occasionally there's something new, but otherwise it's just a repeated cycle in that life. Girl finding the cat is your first home before you grown out, your parents or loved ones, theyre missing you everyday. City life as an adult is fun, you could do everything you want as long as you can, but some things just get tiring, especially when everytime it's like that, unless it's your passion. I don't have anything against barbers, but clearly, some jobs you work on is not really want you want or your passion in your life, some of us are just forced on circumstances.

    another update: guys I know you're worried for the cat but as many commenters have already guessed, I doubt he's actually gonna come back. When he did, he was visibly frail and a bit grey. He's an old cat, and as many have said, he might've just came back to say his last goodbye.

    So my (personal) interpretation of this is that its about what it's like to be a young person living on your own for the first time, being an "adult", and subsequently growing up from the hardships of that experience and eventually returning home again (maybe only temporarily, to learn from his mistakes and work towards adulthood more slowly).
    The music/tone of the first parts is really fast-paced, the colors warm and bright, which effectively give everything a "hectic but exciting" vibe. He gets a job really quickly to a manager who seems genuinely cool with letting him on the team (he's probably thinking, dang, it was that easy!). Of course that same manager who let him on so casually also dropped him equally as casually - there's a lot to be said about being young and stumbling across a lot of really good luck, and a lot of really bad luck too (sometimes both in one). It's equal parts incredibly easy to survive and incredibly difficult.
    The kid screaming feels like a representation of immaturity. There's stress bubbling up at pretending to be an adult before actually feeling like one -- on top of financial stress, genuine risk of failure, etc. It's hard to come to grips with when you're experiencing freedom for the first time and it's something you desperately value. He ignores it.
    I think it's also important to note that the yelling only happens at night when he's not working or drinking (aka, when there's nothing actively occupying him). The stress of adulthood and functioning as an adult despite not being one is completely burning him out; as much as he denies its existence ("it's not my problem"), he's really just denying the fact that he's still a young person. He wants to make this whole 'living on his own despite being a fuckin cat' thing work.
    In the end everything falls apart, but it's not actually the end of the road. He loses his apartment, his job, his morale to an extent-- but he's able to pack up and head back home.
    And home isn't bright and exciting, it's blue and muted, calm and maybe dreary. His caregiver sees him, he's admitting to his failures by showing himself to her at all, and they embrace. She accepts him back because she loves him, and I think there's a bittersweet peace to that. It's night but for the first time there's no screaming, because that very basic vulnerability was shared and received affectionately.
    A big part of growing up is knowing when you're not yet grown up (and clearly, telling that stressed voice to "shut up" didn't stop the bad things from happening).
    I think lastly, the creator of this animation is clearly an artist. Going to a big city with very little in your name and running away from the suburbs is pretty typical of any art student (speaking from personal experience), as is being broke/working odd jobs/etc.I think the subject matter in that sense is probably pretty familiar to her, her colleagues, and a lot of people in her life in general. Everyone wants to "make it" and is terrified of failure/getting "found out" and exposed as a child masquerading as a functioning adult, even though it's through that admittance that one becomes an adult in the first place.
    But that's just my take! Could be totally off. I love these animations because I feel like the best way to understand them is to get a grasp on the feelings it gives you before anything else.

      lili barrow HEY YOU! COMMENTER PERSON! THIS WAS A BEAUTIFULLY SAD ANALYSIS AND I LOVE IT!
      I was thinking along the same exact lines for the general plot but fell short on how the screaming girl came into play. My original thought process was the cat’s exposure to real life is represented through the screaming girl.
      The cat was likely shielded where it grew up with its owner, or at least hasn’t been able to be a REAL adult under her care. The cat lacked real life experience but despite his lack of knowledge on the real world, it moves out. It oozes confidence in its new lifestyle choice as well (considering he bought an apartment with no job, and that just proves more that he doesn’t understand the real world and could have very possibly been shielded)
      Due to its little experience with real life application, it’s discovers how life is often hard and upsetting as it goes. This is where it falls into a depression that leads into an addiction to dull out the stress and realizations that come from a shield from life being removed.
      I loved your analysis a whole lot, I would type more but I have to wake up in 3 hours for an internship interview but rather I’m watching this video for the fifth time
