Curious, I wonder why the cats insist on buying property.

Wish there was a version which had more health. They heal and have far too little health sadly :( But adorable mod all the same.

So, would this work in a world with Reactive World, UWE and the like?

@mok I've noticed the same thing in the hub, the cats seem to own the stationhouse. Also noticed this in the hidden village, half the houses are empty except for cats. I'm wondering if this is possibly an incompatabilty with CATO/Reactive world and their patches that change the towns?

Two things other than i love this mod and it inspired me to make my personal use mod to make the cats very very very hard to kill. I am very happy it exists and thank you.

Second thing: i also have the issue where the station house in Hub is just... empty, save for a few cats [2-5] that do not move. None of the cats spawned in various places actually move around unless something attacks them.
They also have never appeared in animal trader shops. So the only way i've been able to run around with a cat is to start with a pack of them and look sadly at the ones i can't interact with in the world that i would love to recruit.
I can't even use tame beasties, because even without my mod in the background making them stronger, its very difficult to not just outright kill one.

Is there a way to get them that I have missed?

I loaded it up in the FCS and reuploaded it after a cleanup. So, a lot of the times random little updates they patch in without telling anyone breaks things and to fix it is just a simple load into FCS, cleanup, resave, so this might have fixed previous issues if any.

Hmm, probably a conflict then of some sort Biohazard. I have no idea why though. And Kai, it sounds like the cats literally somehow bought the house.. Which I don't even see how that can happen.

I noticed that the Stationhouse in The Hub becomes an empty building with cats inside when this mod is installed, and it can’t be purchased anymore. I’m not sure if this is intended, but I wanted to ask in case it’s a bug or a conflict with other mods.

I apologize if my previous comment came off as rude, that was not my intention. I do not know how mods work, all I know is that I was playing the game fine with my other mods, exited out of the game to go search for a cat mod, installed this one, imported, got back into my game, and then my characters were not following correctly. I don't know if this mod conflicts with another mod of mine, or if something else was amiss. It just seemed the most logical conclusion to assume the mod I just added was the one that caused the issue. I started a new game with all of the old mods except this one and the following issue was gone.
Teirdalin  [author] Sep 30, 2025 @ 8:18am 
Considering this mod literally changes nothing related to AI.

Yeah I solved the issue by not doing anything, good bug report.
BIOHAZARD1933 Sep 28, 2025 @ 6:51pm 
After adding this mod, my people and animals stopped following correctly. Instead of 'staying close', they'd run about 50 ft away and never get any closer, following from that distance. I removed the mod, the problem persisted. I removed all mods, and even then the problem persisted. I booted up a save I made before adding any mod, a pure vanilla save, and the issue was gone. I did not have any issues prior to adding this mod. I was playing perfectly fine just a minute before I went and looked for a cat mod, added this one, got back into the game, imported, and suddenly the whole follow mechanic was dysfunctional. Really hope this could be fixed as I would love to have some cats running around!

Hi! I was looking for a mod that adds cats — this one is perfect. I just wish there was a starting option where it's a cat and its owner together, but just one cat. Thank you
Teirdalin  [author] Aug 25, 2025 @ 12:44pm 
Oh, right. Pushed a fix, thanks for catching that.
kaigostory Aug 23, 2025 @ 3:03pm

Pode Aug 13, 2025 @ 7:06pm 
Kittens please? All I ever see are adult cats and I want to train them up from kittens like I do bonedogs.
Teirdalin  [author] Aug 12, 2025 @ 8:17pm 
Added white cats.
kaigostory Jun 12, 2025 @ 7:02am 
I want to get a white cat soon, so I changed my orange cat to a white cat. ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ

I love my kitties, always play with them. Would love it you update the mod and add more cat variants like calico, orange, grey, etc.

Has visual conflict with Xenoblade 2: Pneuma mod, turns backpack ugly on pneuma.

@Teirdalin
Hello, Thanks for this great mod. I have spent many hours enjoying it, and shed some salty RP tears when I have lost more than one of my beloved kitties. Therefore, I have made a submod to make the super cats from this Mod tougher, stronger. and more sneaky. In my mind they are more like tiny Kenshi Panthers of justice. My goal for this balance was "a good bit more likely to survive" instead of "murders all in it's path."

I also made a mod called "Comically Large Cats" which is about... well really big versions of these cats, which do in fact murder all in their path.

This mod is still required so I hope you are ok with this and get a kick out of it:

If any issues please let me know.
Teirdalin  [author] Jan 9, 2025 @ 4:27pm 
I want to say probably not.
entfekra Jan 8, 2025 @ 8:01pm 
Do you need to start a new game to get kitties to spawn?

Incompatible with Cat Sneak for VRoid (3378013446).

After peeking in FCS still no clue why.
catmanmlio Mar 29, 2024 @ 6:17pm 
Teirdalin, it was very sneaky of you to add a bunch of cats to Mad Cat-Lon!
Pode Mar 29, 2024 @ 7:28am 
Any chance you'll set some to spawn as kittens? I've only ever found adult cats.
Teirdalin  [author] Mar 29, 2024 @ 2:40am 
Have you seen a cat shrug off a hit from a psychopath wielding a giant sword?
VaporWolf93 Mar 22, 2024 @ 6:19pm 
are the cats supposed to have only like 15 hp on their limbs?
WOLFTEETH Mar 12, 2024 @ 10:45pm 
I beg of you, plz add more cat skins. This mod is wonderful.
catmanmlio Mar 7, 2024 @ 2:27pm 
Caution. This Makes Mad Cat-Lon slightly harder. he has 7-8 cats plus his 100 something guards.
Abstract Incognito Dec 6, 2023 @ 8:34pm 
Awesome mod! Please add a Tortoiseshell cat coat!
MLmarcie Nov 1, 2023 @ 5:43pm 
OoHHH !!... I want a panther too !! :)
Astrobuni Oct 1, 2023 @ 5:10pm 
I literally gasped in delight. Thank you
freedhumanity Aug 23, 2023 @ 11:58am 
Totally made a panther for my personal use with your help haha. This is awesome.
Q Jul 25, 2023 @ 11:47pm 
I love them... please more kinds of cats. They should walk around towns like other animals do (Family Dogs for ex)
dolamaro May 12, 2023 @ 9:17pm 
awesome!
Marido May 7, 2023 @ 6:17am 
My cat's just keep dying, they should start with 50 dodge and have a 1.2 xp multiplier in dodge
Pode Mar 28, 2023 @ 8:43am 
I'm trying to ask if there are cats available of less than age 90 that will level up via growth mechanics like the pups/teens/adults/elders of other animal species or if cats are all adults.
Teirdalin  [author] Mar 27, 2023 @ 7:42pm 
I assume kittens are just tiny cats.
CrumbleCat Mar 26, 2023 @ 12:53pm 
Oh I read that completely wrong. :special: I can't recall if there are kittens.
Pode Mar 26, 2023 @ 12:14pm 
I know they grow up, that's why I want to buy a kitten and train it early so the aging boosts the gains. But all I see are adults and like 2 elders, no kittens or teens
CrumbleCat Mar 26, 2023 @ 12:58am 
Guy below me: They will eventually grow up. It takes loik 40 days maybe.
Pode Mar 25, 2023 @ 5:15pm 
Are there only adult cats for sale or have I just been unlucky so far?
