How is the theme implemented?
The game's theme is based on laziness: the man is greedy and covetous, wanting the cat to fetch him food, yet he ultimately ends up having to go get it himself—and with great difficulty.

I must confess, I am thoroughly confused about what I just played
wow tbh I don't really get the game that much. why is the cat begging for food when he can just grab it himself?
As the game's name—"The Fat Man and the Cat"—suggests, the man is extremely fat and lazy; he is so heavy he cannot even stand on his own two feet. However, he is dreaming, and strange things always happen in dreams.
