They are a furry, catlike variant of a [[Goomba]] that mirror [[Cat Mario]] as an enemy form.
==History==
===''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''===
Cat Goombas attack by jumping, then diving down, in the same way that Cat Mario can. Like Mario, they meow when doing this. They can be defeated with any attack, and sometimes drop a [[Super Bell]] when defeated.

In [[Lake Lapcat]] in ''[[Bowser's Fury]]'', there are brown Cat Goombas,<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|author=Nintendo of America|date=February 2, 2021|url=x.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1356708999979274240|title=Think you can spot an enemy without cat ears in Bowser's Fury? Think again! From Cat Goomba & Cat Piranha Plant to Cat Koopa Troopa and even Cat Conkdor. These enemies are unique to #SuperMario3DWorld + #BowsersFury!|publisher=Twitter|accessdate=July 7, 2024|archive=web.archive.org/web/20210507054331/https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1356708999979274240}}</ref> but like the other enemies, their cat appearance is only an aesthetic difference and they do not gain any new abilities. As such, these Cat Goombas behave like regular Goombas (i.e. chasing the player as soon as they spot them).

===''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''===
With [[Super Bell Hill]] making an appearance in the [[Wii U]] version of ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', Cat Goombas return as well, acting the same as in their previous appearance.

===LEGO ''Super Mario''===
A Cat Goomba appears in the Cat Peach Suit and Frozen Tower [[LEGO Super Mario|LEGO ''Super Mario'']] expansion set, which released on August 1, 2022. Two Cat Goombas also appear in Character Pack Series 6, which was released in 2023.
