Remodeling is key
Expanding your yard is only part of the process. You'll also want to spend the big bucks remodeling your landscape. Different landscapes seem to draw cats in more often. I found that the Zen Garden is the most lucrative for attracting cats to every possible spot in the yard. I recommend spending your next 140 gold fish on the Zen Garden.
Cats are also inquisitive by nature. So, it is beneficial to have a couple of remodels in your pocket. You may start seeing a common cat that hadn't come around in a while if you change the landscape.
Wait until there are no cats in your yard before you set a remodel. Otherwise, everyone in the yard will disappear and you'll only receive one silver fish from each of them.
Your first remodel will only cost 180 gold fish, but after that, remodeling goes up to 280, so choose wisely.
Note: The remodeling store is held in a different spot than the Goodies. Tap Menu, Other, and then Remodel.
