¶ Cat Types
Cat Bot uses a rarity-based system where cats are divided into different rarity tiers. Common cats appear more frequently, while rare and special cats have lower spawn chances. This system affects collection progress and achievements.
There are currently 22 cat types in total. Check the table below for reference (all numbers are rounded to the nearest hundredth):
If a cat type was never caught in a server before, it will show up as ??? (
), so if you don't see a cat type in your list, that is why.
(Clicking the underlined cat type name will provide more information of the cat type.)

¶ Bonus Cats
All cats have a small chance (around 6.5% on average, chance is higher for rarer cats) to be a bonus one. This modifier has a unique minigame which lasts 30 seconds tied to every type of cat, in which you get 3 more unboosted cats if you succeed (this includs the initial catcher plus the 3 late catchers).
These are the sentences (or {random_text}) Cat Bot can pick for its minigames:
- The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
- Cat Bot is a Discord bot about catching cats.
- The birch canoe slid on the smooth planks.
- Glue the sheet to the dark blue background.

¶ Custom Cats
These exclusive cats can only be obtained by supporters. Any cats outside of the above table are Custom cats, and will be placed after the eGirl cat in the inventory globally. These have no value and don't count towards the total number of cats. Only one type can be had at a time, and they can't be put in /trade or /gift.
The custom cat can be changed/added/removed using /customcat [SUPPORTER-ONLY]. To remove a cutsom cat from your inventory, name it "None".
