In {{OoS}}, a Cat named '''Mittens''' plays a part in the {{Term|OoS|Trading Quest|link}},<ref>{{Cite Book|quote='''Mittens'''|book=A&A|page=209}}</ref> where [[Link]] must lure her down from a [[Tree]] with a [[Fish]]. In return, Link will get the [[Megaphone]] from [[Ojī|her owner]].

In {{TMC}}, Cats will attack Link while he is in [[Minish Link|Minish form]]. They are most prevalent around [[Hyrule Town]].

In {{TP}}, in order to buy the [[Slingshot]] from [[Sera's Sundries]], Link must catch a [[fish]] for {{Term|TPHD|Sera|link}}'s Cat. This is due to the Cat running away after being scolded for eating a fish intended for the family's dinner. Sera's Cat is named after the young hero. Other notable Cats include [[Jovani]]'s Cat, [[Gengle]], who is the leader of a group of Cats in [[Hyrule Castle Town]], and [[Louise]], [[Telma]]'s Cat, who assists Link while he is in [[Wolf Link|wolf form]] at a number of points in the game, namely during [[Midna]]'s desperate hour.

In the [[Hidden Village]], twenty Cats return to the village after Link defeats the [[Bulblin]]s occupying it. The [[Cucco]] who looks after the Cats, referred to as the "Cucco Leader," asks Wolf Link to [[Cat Chat|entertain the Cats]] in exchange for a [[Piece of Heart]] by speaking to each one of them. However, it warns him that the Cats are very forgetful and will need to be spoken to all over again if Link leaves the village.

The Cats in Castle Town and Impaz's house can be seen playing with balls which use the same model as the [[bomb]]s dropped by [[Bomskit]]s. Cats will also pounce and attack nearby Cuccos.

In {{SS}}, Cat-like creatures called Remlits roam [[Skyloft]]. At night, Remlits become aggressive enemies and will seek to harm Link. A particular Remlit named '''Mia''' belongs to [[Princess Zelda#Skyward Sword|Zelda]] and [[Gaepora]], her father. Link can help find the Cat at the beginning of the game.

In {{TFH}}, Cats are found in various places in [[Hytopia]]. Many appear in [[Madame Couture's]], but two are found outside, lounging on a bench and a roof, respectively. The Cat on the bench will meow when talked to without the [[Cheetah Costume]].<ref>{{Cite|Meowwww! Mew mew meow!|Cat|TFH}}</ref> It is to this Cat that the [[Beret Boy]] will read Volume 6 of the [[Drablands Diary]].<ref>{{Cite|Mimi lent me a book! I was so happy, I read it to a cat.|Beret Boy|TFH}}</ref> Apparently the Cat enjoyed listening to it.<ref>{{Cite|The cat liked it! Do you want to hear it too?|Beret Boy|TFH}}</ref> When Link looks in the [[Mirror]] in [[Madame Couture]]'s [[Madame Couture's|Shop]], he can see a Cat sitting behind him near the rack of clothes. Strangely, however, it can only be seen in this Mirror, and cannot be approached. If Link wears the Cheetah Costume, he is able to understand the language of Cats.<ref>{{Cite|Perhaps if I wore a catlike outfit, I could understand their ways! Hmm...|Bearded Baron|TFH}}</ref><ref>{{Cite Book|quote= This feline ensemble won't give you nine lives, but it will turn your walking speed into running speed. Plus, it lets you talk to the cats around town! Now you can get the juiciest feline gossip and pass it around faster than anyone can keep up. Jackpot!|book= Tri Force Heroes Collector's Edition Official Player's Guide|publisher= Prima Games|page= 227}}</ref>

Cats that sit outside on the bench west of Madame Couture's will tell Link that the [[Street Merchant]] adjusts his prices whenever he is in a good mood,<ref>{{Cite|Oh! Hello, meow! I'm a cat! You've probably noticed that already, meow. The human princess always knew just how to make us cats purr purr purrr. Le sigh, meow. Hey! Since you're trying to help my best human, I'll give you some advice! The Street Merchant is super finicky, meow. When he's in a good mood, he'll pay more for the same item. It's easy to tell when he's in high spirits if you chat with him. Hope that helps, meow!|Cat|TFH}}</ref> offering double for buying Link's [[Material]]s. These Cats also emulate Madame Couture's habit of slipping into a mix of English and French. The Cat sitting on the couch facing the Dressing Room claims to be Madame Couture's guardian, as well as the guardian of the store owner's secrets, freely gossiping about Madame Couture's relationship with her sister, [[Lady Maud]].<ref>{{Cite|Welcome, stranger! Gimme some fish! Just kidding, nya ha. Wait a minute... Do you actually understand what I'm saying?! That's amazing, meow! I'm the guardian of this store. I keep things running smoothly and keep all of Madame's juicy secrets. Speaking of, did you know that Madame has a sister named Lady Maud? They used to get along purrfectly. But then The Lady got mad because nobody appreciated her style enough, so she decided to leave Hytopia. I doubt she'll ever return. I really hope she finds her place in the world and true happiness. And some fish too.|Cat|TFH}}</ref>
