Nekopara (Japanese: ネコぱら), is a series of adult visual novels developed by NEKO WORKs and published by Sekai Project. The series is set in a world where humans live alongside catgirls, known as 'Nekos'.

The first game in the series, Nekopara Vol. 1, was released in December 2014. The series has gained popularity for its cute catgirl characters and lighthearted storylines, leading to adaptations in other media, such as anime and manga.
