Guys, guys, guys, we're all arguing over nothing. The best cat in the game is clearly Killer Cat.

I mean, for a justifiable price, you get the same stats as Basic Cat but with a faster recharge speed. This means that, with enough cash, they make for an incredible meatshield and are thus crucial to gameplay in harder stages.Combined with the combo with Basic Cat, this adds a combo that provides more cash, thus making Killer Cat even easier to use.

Everyone complains about it being the "most expensive cat in the game", but really, its Chapter 1 cost is only 5000, whereas most Chapter 3 Ubers cost much more, so this makes it very useful in Chapter 1 because of its relatively cheap cost and very useful in Chapter 3 due to Ubers being much too expensive. I imagine it's very useful in Chapter 2 as well.

It's also very cheap to upgrade, meaning you can use it early on in the game without grinding to use it, allowing it to serve as a replacement to ridiculously expensive and ultimately useless Ubers. It's also faster than many very slow Ubers, so even if you save up the stupid amount of cash needed to use an Uber, the Killer Cat is still better.

Also, Killer Cat's admittedly somewhat high cost just goes to show how much of a tank it truly is. You know it has to be good when Bahamut Cat can't even compare to it's cost. I mean, there is a reason why so much effort and thought went into its design.

Killer Cat doesn't even have any +levels! You don't have to grind for cat tickets just for him to reach his True Form! Bear in mind also that the True Form of Killer Cat is also much more powerful than the Level 1 Basic Cat (don't even bother checking the stats, they're inaccurate anyway), making him a much more effective meatshield over Basic Cat when fully upgraded (remember that he is also very cheap to upgrade, so he can still be used early game).

Basic Cat is famously a well-rounded cat, so with the fastest recharge speed in the game, quality implied to be even better that Bahamut Cat, overall much better stats than Basic Cat (who, remember, is one of the staples of the whole game), cheap upgrades without grinding, hugely better than most Ubers and so on, the relatively costly price is well worth it.
