Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2018s world is packed with deep, interesting characters to interact with, and that doesn\u2019t stop with the humaniods. The spell Speak with Animals (or a potion that grants its effects) is all but essential, as many of the Sword Coast\u2019s animals have plenty to say. This ranges from wholesome interactions with Scratch to fittingly smug cats to darker revelations about the world, such as what happened to the Owlbear cub\u2019s older brother. It\u2019s not just human players who love interacting with these creatures, though, as some have shared pictures and stories of their real-life pets getting really excited over certain characters. Cats love Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s animals and villains As Reddit user Dwanye_Dirac_Johnson shared, their cat was \u201chalf asleep on my lap\u201d until the cat Malta appeared. Seeing her clearly got the real feline\u2019s attention as an image of the cat getting slow to the monitor to stare at Malta shows. Players are understandably delighted by the picture. \u201cLarian really put love interests for EVERYONE in this game,\u201d said one commenter. Others discussed their own cats\u2019 reactions to Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 and its animals. \u201cMy cat gets excited seeing Scratch EVERY SINGLE TIME!\u201d shared a user, along with a picture of their pet trying to get as close as possible to the screen. It\u2019s not just the game\u2019s animals that are getting cats excited. As another player shared, \u201cMy cat for whatever reason is obsessed with Orin. Whenever she\u2019s on the TV she\u2019ll go up and start slapping the screen with her paws lol.\u201d That story prompted the original poster to note, \u201cIt makes sense, all cats crave violence,\u201d and another to claim, \u201cAll cats are bhaal spawn.\u201d Considering how brutal of a villain Orin is, it\u2019s no surprise she would appeal to that part of cat life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players charmed by cats reacting to in-game animals Larian StudiosAfter a Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player shared an image of their cat reacting to an in-game feline, others are sharing how their own pets react to the game.
