Toro (トロ), full name Toro Inoue (井上トロ, Inoue Toro), also known as the Sony Cat, is a fictional character created by Sony Interactive Entertainment. He is an anthropomorphized cat who behaves like a human in an attempt to become a human.
Toro is an anthropomorphized white Japanese bobtail cat of a chibi design style. Toro is characterized by his big, trapezoid-shaped head, a rectangular-shaped body, and its vast variety of face expressions. Toro's family name originated from the sushi chef that adopted him after he got abandoned.
Toro appears in the PlayStation 3 title Mainichi Issho ("Everyday Together"), a talk show-like game where Toro delivers daily news together with Kuro, his black cat neighbor. Players answer trivia questions to win in-game money (Myale) and prizes such as decorations for Toro's in-game apartment; an online IQ test versus game is also available. Mainichi Issho was available free of charge download on the Japanese PlayStation. A sequel, Weekly Toro Station, was released in November 2009 as a replacement for Issho.
Toro is the main character of the free downloadable PlayStation Vita game Toro's Friend Network, in which the player must help him make friends so that he can save Kuro who has been kidnapped.
Toro stared in Toro Puzzle, released for Android and iOS in Japan, in 2019, and later released in North America in 2020 as Toro and Friends: Onsen Town.
