Cat Cursor Widget

New release ยท plug-and-play widget

A cat that actually chases your cursor.

Drop it into any website and a little cat appears โ€” walking, running, pouncing, and catching your visitor's mouse with real inertia. It's an actual physics-driven state machine, not a canned GIF.

What's included

Everything you need to ship it today โ€” plus the tool to make it your own.

The widget, plug-and-play

cat-laser.js + cat-laser.css. Drop it in, call one function.

Pre-built sprite sheet

The full cat sprite sheet, ready to use out of the box โ€” no design work needed.

Live tuning demo

A demo page with sliders for size, chase speed, and friction โ€” tune it, then copy your values.

Bonus

Make your own character

The exact tool (video2sprites.js) used to build this sprite sheet from video โ€” turn your own pet, mascot, or logo into a cursor companion.

Full source, fully commented

No build step, no minified black box. Read it, tweak it, own it.

Commercial license

Use it on client work. One license per end product โ€” see the included terms.

Not a GIF. A real physics engine.

The cat above on this page is running the actual product logic: a damped spring pulls it toward the cursor, and a state machine decides whether it should be idling, trotting, sprinting, or pouncing โ€” based on real distance and speed, every frame.

  • Physics-based chase

    A real damped spring, not a canned CSS animation.

  • 9-state animation machine

    Picks the right pose from cursor speed and distance.

  • Frame-accurate walk cycles

    Driven by distance traveled, not a timer โ€” no foot-sliding at any speed.

  • Auto-mirroring

    Faces the direction it's actually moving, every time.

Frequently asked questions

Does this work with WordPress / Shopify / Webflow?

Yes โ€” it's plain HTML/CSS/JS with no build tools needed. Paste the script tags into your theme's footer or a custom HTML block.

Will it slow down my site?

No. It's a single small JS file with zero external dependencies, and it pauses itself completely when the browser tab isn't visible.

Can I make it a different animal or character?

Yes โ€” the package includes the exact tool used to build the cat's sprite sheet from video clips. Full walkthrough included in the download.

Can I use it on a client's site?

Yes, one license per end product/client โ€” see the included license file for the exact terms.
