Humanity Catified (人類ネコ化計画, Jinrui Neko-ka Kēkaku, Human Catification Project) is the 48th sub-chapter of Uncanny Legends, and the 97th sub-chapter overall. It was added in Version 12.0 and is currently only available up to 4♛ difficulty.
The first five stages are similar to Spacetime Distortion, beginning with rematches against the first four Uncanny Legends drop units followed by a single stage containing all of them. However, the rematches have completely new support for the bosses, as opposed to recycling old lineups. Clearing stage 5 unlocks the True Form evolutions of all Uncanny Legends drops and gives access to Mining Epic, a stage that drops the necessary Epic Behemoth Stones. Stages 6-8 drop a combined total of 6 Platinum Shards when cleared for the first time.
Difficulty[]
Stages vary from moderately to extremely difficult, depending on the enemy composition, all made harder by every stage having the No Continues restriction. The hardest of all is Birth of True Man, where the synergy of Great Ape Luza and Pterowl Hazuku can prove extremely difficult to overcome without True Forms like Awakened Doron and Awakened Naala, unless one stalls at the beginning and waits for the Owlbrows and Relic Doges to be expended before the boss fight.
- 2♛ difficulty for this sub-chapter multiplies enemy strength magnifications by 110%.

New Features[]
This subchapter introduces 5 enemies to Uncanny Legends, though only the first is entirely new:
- Great Ape Luza: A powerful Relic/Behemoth enemy with a large health pool, monstrous attack power and a dual Omni Strike attack, the second hit capable of reaching units up to 700 range away. Additionally immune to Waves.
- Casaurian Darkjo: First time arriving in Uncanny Legends. A Black/Behemoth enemy with a lot of HP and knockbacks with an expanding 3-hit Long-Distance attack up to 351 range. Strong based on stats alone, but made occasionally lethal with his 5% chance to deal Toxic damage to cats for 50% of their health. Also immune to Surges, Freeze, and Weaken.
- Formicidaean Ariant: First time arriving in Uncanny Legends. A Zombie/Behemoth enemy that is not to be underestimated. Despite its 24-second long revival time, you won't want this insect alive. Its lengthy attack animation ends with overwhelming damage, easily obliterating even the tankiest of cats. Its immunity to Knockback, Freeze, and Weaken ensure that the only way to interrupt it is by brute force.
- Cumulus Gallus: First time arriving in Uncanny Legends. A mid-ranged Traitless/Behemoth enemy, incredibly tanky with a strengthen at 33% health! Additionally immune to both Weaken and Slow.
- Pterowl Hazuku: First time arriving in Uncanny Legends. A Floating/Behemoth enemy, it deals heavy damage with an incredible effective range of of 330-1060, nuking hordes of units in one hit. Adding onto this madness, it has a 20% chance to spawn a Lv.1 Surge Attack between 400 and 1200 range. Additionally, it is immune to Surges.

Trivia[]
- Humanity Catified's Japanese name, Human Catification Project, is likely a reference to the Human Instrumentality Project from Neon Genesis Evangelion.
- Each of the Main Chapters is represented in stages 6-8 of Humanity Catified:
- The tree that serves as the enemy base in all three stages may reference the tree from Iriomote Island, the 48th stage of the Japanese Version of Empire of Cats, as the phrase 野生の底力 yasei no sokojikara ("underlying power of the wild") on Iriomote Island's base is also present in the Japanese description of Wild Doge, who appears in the last two stages of Humanity Catified. This is further supported by how Humanity Catified is the 48th sub-chapter of Uncanny Legends.
- Reign of the Ape Lord's boss theme is "Apollo Kessen", which was first used in the Moon stage of Into the Future.
- The music played in Ape Lord's Revenge is "Big Bang Kumikyoku", which was first used in The Big Bang stage of Cats of the Cosmos.
- Birth of True Man's boss theme is the Mount Aku/Mount Fuji Invasion theme from The Aku Realms.
- The huge, glowing tree in the background of stages 6-8 may be a reference to various fictional "trees of life", such as:
- The Tree of Mana from the Mana series, as the tree's energy is described similarly to Mana itself in Zero Luza's description, and an ancient god appears from the tree in the Uncanny Legends ending, possibly an equivalent to the Mana Goddess.
- The Tree of Might from Dragon Ball Z: The Tree of Might, as both Sacred Forest and the Tree of Might have the kanji 神 ("divine") in their Japanese names, and one of the only groups that can eat its fruit are the universal deities called the Kais, again possibly tying into the ancient god mentioned in the Uncanny Legends ending.
- The Universe Tree introduced in Dragon Ball Heroes, as Uncanny Legends is followed by A Whole New World, which features an enemy based on one of the Universe Creation Planners.
- Humanity Catified is mentioned by name in True Superfeline's description.
- This sub-chapter has the highest number of No Continues stages, at 8, eclipsing that of all others in non-event Legend Stages.
- It is also the only Uncanny Legends sub-chapter to have more than 6 stages.
