'''Calico cat parents''' are the parents of the calico [[kitten]]s found in [[Lake Lapcat]] in ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury#Bowser's Fury|Bowser's Fury]]''. Three different parents appear in the game, with one being found near each of the three [[Giga Bell]]s. When [[Mario]] first encounters one, it is shown crying, due to its kittens having gone missing. The parent by the Lakeside Giga Bell has one kitten, the parent by the Ruins Giga Bell has three, and the parent by the Wasteland Giga Bell has five. Similarly to the mission [[Li'l Penguin Lost]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', Mario must find the calico kittens within the parent's region and carry each one back to it. A counter over the parent's head signifies how many kittens are left to be returned. For each kitten other than the last that is returned to its parent, Mario earns three [[coin]]s, and after returning the last kitten, he earns a [[Cat Shine]] as a reward. From then on, the parent can be seen smiling and purring with its kittens instead of crying, but if Mario leaves the area and then comes back, the family will disappear, except for the one by the Wasteland Giga Bell. This, along with the fact that each calico cat parent is only unlocked after the previous one has been helped, might imply that they are all the same character.

Mother cats[1] are the parents of calico kittens in the Bowser's Fury campaign of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. Three different cats appear throughout Lake Lapcat, with one being found near each of the three Giga Bells. When Mario first encounters one, she is shown crying because her kittens have gone missing. The cat by the Lakeside Giga Bell has one kitten, the cat by the Ruins Giga Bell has three, and the cat by the Wasteland Giga Bell has five. Similarly to the mission "Li'l Penguin Lost" in Super Mario 64, Mario must find the calico kittens within the cat's region and carry each one back to her. A counter over the cat's head signifies how many kittens are left to be returned. For each kitten other than the last that is returned to its cat, Mario earns three coins, and after returning the last kitten, he earns a Cat Shine as a reward. Afterwards, the cat can be seen smiling and purring with her kittens instead of crying. If Mario leaves the area and returns, both the cat and her kittens will disappear, except for the group by the Wasteland Giga Bell, which will remain permanently. If Mario or Bowser Jr. attack a cat, she does not take damage, and confetti appears instead.

Like their kittens, cats become corrupted while Fury Bowser is active, and attack Mario if he approaches them.

The color scheme of the Calico Parafoil in Mario Kart Tour is similar to the colors of cats.
