Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cat Journey at none against Nekosan's 5. Cat Journey also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). Nekosan's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
