Strategy/Usage

Gold Cat's Cat Combo with the basic Cat, Rich and Poor, can be useful in some stages, mostly timed ones.

Though this cat is pretty useless late-game, it can be quite useful in the early game as a third meatshield.

Also, +30 easy User Rank is quite useful due to its incredibly low upgrading cost (Only 137,800 XP for level 30).

Despite everything, this unit can be particularly useful as a meatshield if, and only if, used well, since it is exactly like the basic Cat in speed: you can just meatshield this way: summon a Cat, when the recharge time of the cat is 50% send a Gold Cat, the basic Cat will be ready when the Gold Cat is at 50%, so you can send him and wait for the next Gold Cat, etc. This is an efficient way of meatshielding, since it is unlikely that enemies with fast attack speed like Teacher Bun Buns will kill two of them at the same time, while other meatshields often stack up with Macho Cats and can die while overlapped, leaving a gap in the line that may cause trouble in the long run.

Important: the fact that Cat and Gold Cat have the same speed means that if they are spammed normally (in very quick succession), both are always guaranteed to die from the same attack, if area, making the duo act as if they were only one meatshield and completely nullifying the advantage of having two. This is most notable when using a CPU; it is therefore recommended to stop the CPU to de-sync the two cats whenever possible.

You may think that exchanging this Cat for 999,999 XP, three times Sweet XP (Insane) with max. Cat Study and Treasures is a good idea, but normally, it is better to use it, despite the potential XP. This is because it is easier to farm XP Guerrilla Stages over time.
