THE GAME SCREEN

the game screen is SALEM'S "home." you will him move around the screen

and go about his daily routine, and get up to all sorts of tricks!

press the LEFT/RIGHT keys to select the different ICONS around the

outside of the screen. these icons represent all of the different activities that

allow you to interact with SALEM.

HOW TO PLAY

just like a real pet, SALEM needs you in order to grow up happy and healthy.

at various times, he will require a certain kind of attention from you. SALEM

will make noise and the ALERT will light up.

now you've got to figure out what SALEM needs! if SALEM is hungry,

feed him. if SALEM is lonely, play with him. if SALEM is dirty, clean him.

there are many different ways for you to interact with SALEM. the trick

is to figure out what he needs from you! use the LEFT/RIGHT keys to move

to the activity you want, then press ENTER. here are the activities:

FEED [

when you select this activity, you will be given a

choice of foods for SALEM. use the LEFT or RIGHT

key to select either healthy food or treats. every kind

of pet likes different kinds of food. SALEM needs

healthy cat food to grow, and ice cream to stay happy

(even a cat still needs his ice cream fix!)

you can see how hungry SALEM is by checking
his HUNGER

on the SCORE screen

.

a

100 means SALEM has a full tummy-- and

a

0 means SALEM is famished! if SALEM has a

100 he may refuse

to eat. if he has a

0 may refuse to do anything else until you feed him!

SALEM will always eat treats, even when he is full! ice cream tastes so

good, it's impossible to say no! but be careful, too many treats will make

SALEM fat. (and no one wants to be a fat cat!)

SLEEP

select this icon to turn out the light when SALEM

wants to sleep. he likes to take naps during the

day. (and who doesn't?) if you turn out the light

for him, he will happily go to sleep. at night, being

a true party animal, SALEM will be very tired,

and just fall asleep right on the floor. if you want

him to have good dreams, turn out the light at

night, too.

sometimes it's hard to tell when SALEM needs to

sleep. if you try everything else-- feeding, playing,

or cleaning-- and SALEM still seems upset, maybe

it's time for a little nap.

PLAY

to keep SALEM healthy and happy, you should play

with him often. when you select this activity, SALEM

will play a game with you. he likes to play with a

ball of yarn. it's an easy game to play. just press

your buttons in the direction of the ball and SALEM

will try to catch the ball of yarn!

DOCTOR]

if SALEM'S health drops, you can always try a

visit to the doctor. but be careful! there's only so

much the doctor can do (especially for a cat who

used to be a warlock), he does not like to go. we

recommend no more than one trip to the doctor

each day.

CLEANING

to keep SALEM clean, you need to brush him.

select CLEANING to brush him with a cool display

of magic powers!

SCORE

choose this icon to check on SALEM'S progress.

use the LEFT/RIGHT keys to display screens

showing SALEM'S AGE and WEIGHT, HEALTH

and HAPPINESS

, HUNGER

and

DISCIPLINE , and TOTAL SCORE.

SALEM'S AGE increases by 1 every day. what seems

like a day to you is actually one complete year to

your SALEM GIGA PET! a GIGA PET reaches

adult age at about 5 days, and old age at 14 days.

a GIGA PET more than 14 days old is very old

indeed!

SALEM'S WEIGHT will vary depending on his

age, diet, and exercise. too many treats and too much

INTRODUCTION

"if you think school can be tough, imagine being turned into a cat."

many years ago in a fantastic kingdom far away, an evil wizard terrorized

the land. the ruler of this kingdom, PRINCE GIGA, was good and kind,

and with the help of the small creatures of the land he banished the terrible

wizard. but the wizard enacted a horrible curse, imprisoning all of the small

creatures in tiny jeweled pods and scattering them across the universe.

the witches' council, to whom all witches and warlocks must answer, was

inspired by this curse and put the same curse on one of SABRINA'S uncles

and turned him into a cat! now SALEM the cat, lives in the same house

with SABRINA and SABRINA'S two aunts, the spellman sisters, zelda

and hilda. SABRINA can't understand why if she's a witch, she has to go

to school? try explaining to SALEM why if he's a warlock, he has to be

a tuna-loving, collar-wearing cat!! oh, well, who said life was always fair?

certainly not anyone from the witches' council! only by being healthy and happy

can SALEM have his curse lifted. can you help?

CONGRATULATIONS!

you are the proud new owner of a GIGA PET, the take-it-anywhere interactive

pet! and he's not just any pet, he's SALEM, the pet you share with SABRINA,

the teenage witch. like SABRINA, you can take SALEM with you, whether

it's out for a burger and fries, or just to hang out. SALEM needs lots

of attention to grow up healthy and happy. the healthier and happier he is,

the higher your score will be! these instructions will help you on your way.
