The name of the game is Six Cats Under. It can be played online, and it’s rather quick to play.

Backstory: you’re the ghost of a recently deceased crazy cat lady. Your job is to free your cats from your home, because now you can’t feed them, and you don’t want them to starve.

All cats have their own personalities and names. For example Baroness is grumpy, Fredrick only cares about food, Mr. Spock likes to scratch furniture, etc. (Source: click on the cat and the ghost will say it.) This is relevant for gameplay because you need to make her cats interact in a certain way to open the door.

I’ll provide the solution of the puzzle in the comments, but please try the game before using it. Otherwise you’ll lose all those nice tidbits of narration from the ghost.

    Small hints, if you don't want the full solution

    Work left to right.
    Geoffrey (black cat) will do most of the work.
    The TV has three channels. Baroness likes one, Geoffrey is afraid of another.
    Fredrick is too lazy to “scout” the air. Make sure that the delicious smell goes towards him.

    Solution to the puzzle
    1. Go to the left and click on the cuckoo. Geoffrey (the black cat) will wake up. Pumpkin (the orange one) will scold him because she’s grumpy.
    2. Click on the toilet. Geoffrey will get curious and open the door.
    3. Click on the toilet paper roll. Geoffrey will play with it a bit.
    4. Click on the toilet again. Geoffrey will rush past Pumpkin.
    5. Click on the window. A fly will come in.
    6. Click on the lamp. It’ll light on, attracting the fly. Geoffrey will try to catch it, dropping the wool on the floor.
    7. Click on the fan. It’ll turn left.
    8. Click on the fan’s plug. It’ll turn on. Catnip will fall down, and Mr. Spock (the white cat) will scratch the TV control out of the sofa.
    9. Click on the TV. It’ll turn on.
    10. Click on the TV control, twice. It’ll be the cake channel. Baroness (the grey cat) will stare at it, so she doesn’t scold Geoffrey.
    11. Click on the blue wool. Geoffrey will play with it.
    12. Click on the mouse toy. It’ll squick and Geoffrey will play with it.
    13. Click on the bird dishrag. Geoffrey will drop it in the sink.
    14. Click on faucet. It’ll flood the sink.
    15. Click on the TV control twice. The TV will stream the lion channel.
    16. Click on the mouse toy again. Geoffrey will try to play with it again, fall on the sink, get scared. Usually he’d run past the TV, but he’s also afraid of the lion.
    17. Click on the heart decoration immediately above the fish food. It’ll fall down and open the fish food package.
    18. Click on the fish food package. Some will fall in the aquarium. Geoffrey will play with the fish, that’ll fall on the pan.
    19. Click on the stove buttons. It’ll fry the goldfish (poor Goldie), and it’ll smell good (if you’re a cat).
    20. Click on the fan. It’ll turn right, so the smell of frying fish will hit Fredrick (brown and white, sleeping on the fridge)'s nose, and he’ll get interested. He’ll hit the can, the can will make the fish drop on the door knob, Fredrick will try to get it and open the door.

    Congrats, the cats were saved!
