I've been stuck at level 14 for months because of the ridiculous requirements. I only have 600 of the required 1,400 boosters and ping-ponger has not stopped since i got on this level and its still at 11 out of 13. Everything is so expensive i get halted at certain cat levels because i cannot afford what treats they want. All this in addition to the loss of the flavor text makes me want to walk away. It's been over a year so it seems like you will not be making these changes, its a shame because i did really like this game.
