Um, what? This feels like coming in at the end of a conversation. Did you accidentally delete some of your explanatory text?

To answer your final comment - bool is a type that can only take one of two values: true and false.

Well here's a simple way to test if the Critter is still alive or dead, if it's dead then the program will display 'Game Over' and exit.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class Critter
{
public:
	Critter(int hunger = 0 , int boredom = 0);
	void talk();
	void eat(int food = 4);
	void play(int fun = 4);
	void getcurrentstats();
private:
	bool DeadorAlive;
	int m_Hunger;
	int m_Boredom;
	void passtime (int time = 1);
	int getmood() const;
};
void Critter::getcurrentstats()
{
	cout<<"My hunger level is " <<m_Hunger;
	cout<<"\nand my boredom level is " <<m_Boredom<<endl;
	if ( m_Hunger > 15 && m_Boredom > 15 )
	{
		DeadorAlive = true;
	}
	if ( DeadorAlive == true )
	{
		cout<<"You have failed to take care of your Critter.\n";
		cout<<"Game over"<<endl;
		exit(0);
	}
}
Critter::Critter(int hunger, int boredom):
	m_Hunger(hunger) , m_Boredom(boredom)
{
}
int Critter::getmood() const
{
	return (m_Hunger + m_Boredom);
}
void Critter::passtime(int time)
{
	m_Hunger += time;
	m_Boredom += time;
}
void Critter::talk()
{
	cout<<"Hi! I'm a Critter and i'm feeling ";
	int mood = getmood();
	if ( mood > 15 )
	{
		cout<<"Mad!\n";
	}
	if ( mood > 10 )
	{
		cout<<"Frustrated\n";
	}
	if ( mood > 5 )
	{
		cout<<"okay\n";
	}
	else
	{
		cout<<"Happy!\n";
	}
	passtime();
	if ( m_Hunger > 15 && m_Boredom > 15 )
	{
		DeadorAlive = true;
	}
	if ( DeadorAlive == true )
	{
		cout<<"You have failed to take care of your Critter.\n";
		cout<<"Game over"<<endl;
		exit(0);
	}
}
void Critter::eat(int hunger)
{
	cout<<"Num num num\n";
	m_Hunger -= hunger;
	if ( m_Hunger < 0 )
	{
		m_Hunger = 0;
	}
	passtime();
	if ( m_Hunger > 15 && m_Boredom > 15 )
	{
		DeadorAlive = true;
	}
	if ( DeadorAlive == true )
	{
		cout<<"You have failed to take care of your Critter.\n";
		cout<<"Game over"<<endl;
		exit(0);
	}
}
void Critter::play(int fun)
{
	cout<<"Wheeeeee\n";
	m_Boredom -= fun;
	if ( m_Boredom < 0 )
	{
		m_Boredom = 0;
	}
	passtime();
	if ( m_Hunger > 15 && m_Boredom > 15 )
	{
		DeadorAlive = true;
	}
	if ( DeadorAlive == true )
	{
		cout<<"You have failed to take care of your Critter.\n";
		cout<<"Game over"<<endl;
		exit(0);
	}
}
int main()
{
	Critter Crit;
	Crit.talk();
	cout<<"\nCritter Caretaker";
	cout<<"\n-----------------\n\n";
	int choice;
	do
	{
		cout<<"0 - Quit\n";
		cout<<"1 - Listen to your Critter\n";
		cout<<"2 - Feed your Critter\n";
		cout<<"3 - Play with your Critter\n";
		cout<<"4 - Show Critter's current stats\n";

		cout<<"\nChoice: ";
		cin>>choice;
		switch (choice)
		{
		case 0:
			cout<<"Thank you for playing\n";
			break;
		case 1:
			Crit.talk();
			break;
		case 2:

			break;

	}while ( choice != 0 );
	return 0;
