'''Cats''' are an uncommon species in the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise. [[Francis]] seems very fond of cats as he has robotic versions of cats all over [[Fort Francis|his fort]] as maids, security and attacking. There are cat-related creatures such as [[Cat O' 9 Tails]], [[Galley Cat|Galley]], [[Pushy Cat|Pushy]], and [[Mellow Kitty|Mellow Kitties]], as well as Francis's robot cats, [[Gao]]s and [[Blitty|Blitties]]. Despite rarely appearing in games, there is a form based on cats in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' called [[Cat Mario]].
The '''cat''' is an item in the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] and PC releases of ''[[Mario's Time Machine]]''. [[Mario]] receives it from [[Julius Caesar]] after traveling back in time to [[Alexandria]] in the year 47 BC. In {{wp|ancient Egypt}}, cats were often revered, but since Julius Caesar is apparently allergic to them, he gives the one crawling around his feet to Mario. This cat can then be given to a nearby guard of [[Cleopatra]], who has been complaining about all of the rats that are scurrying around his area. Once the guard has the cat, he sets it loose on the rats while saying that he is going to worship it forever, and to show his thanks to Mario, he answers his various questions about Cleopatra.  


==History==

A humanoid cat named [[Spitz]] is a recurring character throughout the series with his dog partner, [[Dribble]], as taxi drivers. The [[Legendary Cat Dancers]] appear along with [[Jimmy T.]] in his story. Jimmy is walking when he sees a cat in the rain partly behind a trash can, he then gives it his umbrella, which causes the cat and a few others to follow him and dance with him at [[Club Sugar]]. Once its all over, every cat and Jimmy T. leave Club Sugar. Then after that, the cat with Jimmy's umbrella returns it to him. The Cat Dancers have dog counterparts who are called The [[Legendary Dog Dancers]] who go with [[Jimmy P.]]

In ancient Egypt, cats were often revered, but since Julius Caesar is apparently allergic to them, he gives the one crawling around his feet to Mario. This cat can then be given to a nearby guard of Cleopatra, who has been complaining about all of the rats that are scurrying around his area. Once the guard has the cat, he sets it loose on the rats while saying that he is going to worship it forever, and to show his thanks to Mario, he answers his various questions about Cleopatra.
