About the Tower
The Cat Tower contains 30 stages (40 as of version 6.7), called floors (階), with a wide variety of enemies including Stories of Legend enemies, Cyclones, Awakened Cats and even Event enemies from monthly and annual events. After completing a floor for the first time, the player will receive gifts including Battle Items, Catseyes, Catfruit, Tickets and Catamins, along with Hermit Cat upon defeating it on the 30th floor, via the Catnip Challenge feature.
Floor Battlegrounds
- Floor #1~4 are typical Empire of Cats-esque stages.

- From Floor #10 onward, Monthly and Annual event enemies start to appear.
- Floor #14 only includes Metal enemies.
- Floor #15 features the Old Masters from the Old Guys About Town event, as well Gabriels, Angelic Gories and a Dober P.D.

- Floor #17 only consists of Aliens, with Elder Sloth, Nimoy Bore and all bosses from The Great Abyss.
- Floor #18 is similar to the Moon's Zombie Outbreak from Empire of Cats Chapter 1, except the Zombies are not as weak and Leggsy makes an appearance.

No Continues allowed after this point:

Boss Skip/Speedrun
Even though on all stage, the player has to beat the bosses and peons supporting it to destroy the Base, on some floors, the Boss can be skipped.
- Floor #22: Flying Ninja Cat and hordes of Brollow can be skipped by stacking Mrs. Sign to stop the boss from appearing. For more info use the strategy on the page.
- Floor #25: Heavy Assault C.A.T. boss fight and Berserkory can be skipped by using Cat Machine Mk3 to cancel shockwaves and reach the Enemy Base early, destroy it with A. Bahamut, duo Island and duo Jamiera.
- Floor #30: Hermit Cat boss fight can be skipped by using Awakened Bahamut fly through its knocked back sprite and destroy the base. However, it requires precise timing and knockback.
