IGN rated the game a 6.5 of 10 saying There's one last reason the title can't score higher than it does, though, and it's not the too-frequent need to feed mentioned above – it's game-ending crashes.[5] PALGN rated the game a 7 of 10 saying "Purr Pals is a great alternative to Nintendogs and is a game that is a lot of fun for kitten lovers".[7]
Jinny Gudmundsen from The Star Press rated the game a 2.5 of 5 saying "Video game offers cute but flawed simulation for cat lovers".[6]
The highest-rated review comes from Nintendo Gamer who rated the game a 77 of 100 saying "Not entirely convincing, and far less smooth than Nintendo's unnamed dog-related game. But it's well put-together feline fun with minigames".[3]
