How to get a cat in Road to Vostok

Your journey from Finland to Russia in Road to Vostok doesn’t need to be a lonely march, and that can be ensured by finding a cat on the fourth day of your adventure. If you manage to survive the first three days, you’ll be tasked with finding a missing cat.

Let’s look at how you can rescue it and add it as your beloved companion.

How to complete the Missing Cat event in Road to Vostok

You have to survive the first three days, and you will be able to accept the quest. The cat can be found in the Outpost area, but for that, you’ll need to prepare carefully. The quest requires you to travel from the Village to the School, and then to the Outpost, and then again return via the same route. Since you’ll lose hydration and energy at all levels, you’ll need water and food.

Stick to the right side of the map, go past the lake, and you’ll find a road. Stick to the road, head right, and you’ll find the Transfer sign that takes you to the School area. Once you’re at the School, walk near the cover that will lead you to the bridge. This is a straight route, but there will be enemies around.

Reach the end of the bridge, and you’ll reach the Outpost area. The Outpost is extremely dangerous since it’s an open area, and you can get shot. There are three bunkers at this location: the first one is immediately on the right of the spawn point. The second one will be to the left of the Red Farmhouse. Finally, the third one is to the right of the Red Farmhouse.

Once again, keep to your right, and you’ll come across a small hill. There’s an entrance to an underground bunker that will lead you to the cat. Go inside a room on your left, and you’ll find a small well (look for the entrance hidden by wooden planks). You’ll find the black cat in a cardboard box. Interact with the well to rescue the cat.

The exact location of the cat could differ on your save. It can spawn in any of the three bunkers at the Outpost location. Once you rescue the cat, head back via the same route that you came from. Don’t die along the way, as you’ll need to restart the entire process.
