Cat O' 9 Tails

A Cat-O-9-Tails is a bizzare blue cat encountered in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest.

Cat-O-9-Tails are fairly rare enemies, only encountered in a few of Donkey Kong Country 2's levels. If a Cat-O-Nine-Tails spots either Diddy or Dixie Kong it will attampt to spin into them and whip them with it's tails. The Kongs must avoid this attack and wait for a Cat-O-9-Tails to collapse from dizziness, it will then become vulnerable to being jumped on the head.

Interestingly if the Kongs jump into a Cat-O-Nine-Tails from above while it is spinning they will end up being flung into the air.
