Cat Shine

Cat Shines are the main collectible appearing in the Bowser's Fury mode of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. They boast a shiny, crimson appearance, shaped like a cat's head, complete with golden facial features, whiskers, and ear canals; surrounding this is a series of golden triangles of varying widths, loosely resembling the outer edges of a Shine Sprite. Cat Shines are often accompanied by a vibrant glow that makes them easy to spot.
One hundred of these collectibles are scattered all throughout Lake Lapcat, with sixty-five being found on its islands, and the remaining thirty-five hidden within the lake itself. Mario and Bowser Jr. must collect five of them in order to awaken a Giga Bell's power, with the number increasing as the player progresses through the game.[1] The animation that Mario performs when collecting the Cat Shines resembles the one done upon collecting a non-story-related Power Moon in Super Mario Odyssey. Collecting a Cat Shine as Small Mario turns Mario into Super Mario.
