Strategy/Usage

• Like most Li'l Cats, it works well with its older counterpart. Putting heavy-duty meatshields on top of other heavy-duty meatshields, provided you have a constant stream coming, makes an almost unkillable barrier, save for boss enemies. Li'l Macho/Mohawk Cat and Macho/Mohawk Cat can be added into the mix too, as while they aren't as sturdy, they are pretty resilient on their own.
• Many of the same strategies used for Cat or Tank Cat work here, too. Just NEVER rely on this kitten too far, as Eraser Cat can take FAR more punishment and is just as easily mass-produced.
• Despite its lower stats, it really shines in 4-star stages, where it takes Tank Cat's role. Although it has low health compared to Tank, it can still take quite a few hits from decently buffed enemies. Its lower health can actually help for those who lack Curling Cat, since it won't advance far when being faced by the peons at the start of a battle.
• This unit's extremely short range can be used to cheese many stages, since the enemies will stay behind the base (most peons have upwards of 110 range, while this unit has only 100), and due to the amount of enemies behind the base, the place of the boss unit will be taken by the enemies and the boss will not appear. This strategy works on many stages, notably Dark Souls, but in some later stages, like Deathhawk, you'll need this unit's True Form to make it work.
• Its immunity to Freeze can help a lot in stages that are complicated by Henry. For example, it is a great meatshield in Electric Bath.
