RunCat 365 is a Windows desktop application that displays a cute running cat animation in the taskbar, with the cat's speed reflecting system resource usage like CPU load. It is written in C#/.NET and distributed via the Microsoft Store.

Use cases

  • show a fun cat animation in my windows taskbar
  • monitor cpu usage at a glance from the taskbar
  • customize the taskbar animation character
  • play a small endless runner game on windows
  • make my desktop more fun with a system tray pet

When to choose

  • you use Windows 10+ and want a lightweight, playful taskbar system indicator
  • you prefer installing apps from the Microsoft Store
  • you want a fun alternative to plain CPU usage graphs

When to avoid

  • you are on macOS or Linux - this is Windows-only
  • you need detailed system monitoring with metrics and alerts rather than a visual indicator
