Cats are a species in the Animal Crossing series who appear both as villagers and as special characters. All of them have pointed ears and slender tails. In the real world, cats are a domesticated animal commonly kept as house pets, much like dogs.
There are currently twenty-six cat villagers and four special cat characters; this makes cats the most abundant species, not counting the bears added with the bear cubs, which equals thirty-four villagers.
Out of the cat villagers, eleven are male and fifteen are female, making the cat species predominantly female. Of these, six are peppy, five are snooty, four are lazy, four are jocks, three are normal, two are cranky, one is smug, and one is big sister. Out of the cat villagers, only Meow and Pierre have not reappeared after Doubutsu no Mori e+, and additionally, Felyne is missing from Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Monique, Stinky, and Tabby also haven't appeared in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp.
Out of all the villagers that made their debut in Doubutsu no Mori, the cat is the only species to not have any cut villagers reappear in the Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo update.
Although cats are not the only species to appear simultaneously as both villagers and special characters, the two types share an identical base model, while others, such as the special dog characters, tend to have completely different designs from their normal villager counterparts.
