A Cat o' 9 tails (also spelled Cat-O'-9-Tails[1][2] and Cat O' 9 Tails) is a blue cat with many tails and an enemy which only appears in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. Its name is derived from the whip called "cat o' nine tails," although Cat o' 9 tails only appears to have seven tails.
Description
Cat o' 9 tails are uncommon enemies and only appear in three levels: Mudhole Marsh, Screech's Sprint, and Fiery Furnace. If a Cat o' 9 tails notices Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong, it starts to rapidly twirl and move around, attempting to whip both Kongs with its tails. Cat o' 9 tails are invulnerable to attack while they spin around, and after a while the Cat o' 9 tails collapses from dizziness. During this phase, the Kongs can defeat the Cat o' 9 tails by jumping on its head or using their frontal attacks on it.
The Kongs must generally avoid a Cat o' 9 tails while it spins around, else they get caught in its tails, and after a seconds, the Cat o' 9 tails flings them upward. While this allows the Kongs to collect out-of-reach items, this may also cause them to fall into a nearby enemy, hazard, or abyss.
