'''Cats''' are major entities appearing in ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', more precisely in the addition ''Bowser's Fury''. They can be seen on most of the various islands composing [[Lake Lapcat]], an archipelago dedicated to them. They exist in five different colors: green, magenta, blue, black, and {{wp|Calico cat|calico}}, each of them representing the different colors of the ''{{wp|Maneki-neko}}'' (lucky cat), as well as the former four matching the [[Cat Mario|Cat form]] colors of the playable characters in ''Super Mario 3D World'' other than [[Mario]]: respectively [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Peach]] (although using a deeper shade of pink similar to [[Toadette]]'s cat form), [[Toad]], and [[Rosalina]].

This article is about a subject in an upcoming or recently released game. When the game is released, or more information about this subject is found, this article may need major rewriting.
This notice should be removed after a month has passed since the game was first released.

Template:Species-infobox Kittens are species that appear in the Bowser's Fury. They can be seen on most of the various islands composing Lake Lapcat, an archipelago dedicated to them. They exist in five different colors: green, magenta, blue, black, and calico, each of them representing the different colors of the Maneki-neko (lucky cat), as well as the former four matching the Cat form colors of the playable characters in Super Mario 3D World other than Mario: respectively Luigi, Peach (although using a deeper shade of pink similar to Toadette's Cat form), Toad, and Rosalina.

Kittens are friendly and sometimes caress Mario (only in his Cat form), or relax and groom themselves. In addition, they can be picked up and carried by Mario. While they are carried, they will continuously scratch in front of them, destroying Brick Blocks and activating ? Blocks similar to Cat Mario's scratch. If Mario approaches them in any other form, they become frightened and try to avoid him. If a kitten is thrown into water or lava, they respawn at their original location.

Although the plain-colored kittens serve no purpose in terms of completing objectives in the game, the calico kittens are actually missing offspring of calico cat parents that need to be returned to them to obtain Cat Shines. There are nine calico kittens in Lake Lapcat that Mario must return to their parents located in their respective regions: one near the Lakeside Giga Bell, three near the Ruins Giga Bell, and five near the Wasteland Giga Bell. Some are located close by while others require Mario to carry a kitten a great distance back to its parent.

While Fury Bowser is active, the kittens as well as the calico cat parents turn into dark versions of themselves. In this state, they are black with red eyes and ears, have spiked fur on their heads and backs, and have a red aura emanating from them. When Mario comes near one of them, it will dash towards him and damage him upon contact.
