Mammals? (Insane)

Mammals? is the eighth stage in the Crazed Cat Stages. It appears on the 24th of every month.

Battleground

At the start of the battle, a lot of Mooths spawn, and 1 Otta-smack-u. After ~53.33 seconds, the bosses (3 Crazed Lizard Cats) will appear. The Enemy's Castle will spawn small enemies at a fast rate, and 2 Otta-smack-us at a slow rate. Overall, this is the combination of the Crazed Gross Cat Stage and the Crazed Bird Cat Stage.

Enemy Stats

Strategies

It is recommended for the player to use Cat Units that have enough health to land some hits on the Crazed Lizard Cats before being knocked out, Jamiera Cat for example, and Cat Units that can outrange the Crazed Lizards.

Strategy 1 (ft. Greater Demon Cat & Crazed Cats)

Cat Line Up: Crazed Macho Cat, Crazed Wall Cat, Eraser Cat, Crazed Gross Cat, Macho Legs Cat, King Dragon Cat, Crazed Whale Cat, Valkyrie Cat, Bahamut Cat and Greater Demon Cat (Balrog works better).

Firstly, spawn tanky cats and long range cats, and save money for Bahamut Cat. When the bosses appear, spawn all units except Lesser Demon Cat/Balrog and try not to run out of money, or the Otters will break through your defences. When the Otters and smaller enemies dies, spawn Lesser Demon Cat/Balrog to damage the Crazed Lizard Cats.

Strategy 2

Line Up: Crazed Macho Cat, Crazed Wall Cat, Wall Cat, Paris Cat, (King Dragon Cat), (Swimmer Cat), Crazed Cow Cat, Crazed Whale Cat.

Power-ups: Sniper the Cat

At the start, save your money, and once the Mooths reach your base, spam Wall Cat and Crazed Whale Cat and send Swimmer Cat (or Paris Cat) to kill the Mooths. Level up your Cat Wallet. A bit before the Otta-smack-us reach your base, spam all your meatshields, Paris Cat, and (optional) one King Dragon Cat. When they are killed, spam ONLY Crazed Whale Cat (they can take a lot of damage from the Crazed Lizards) and Crazed Cow Cat (to make sure to take down the peons before the Crazed Whale Cats attack). If you have Crazed Titan, bring that instead. When the Otta-smack-us respawn, stop the spam of Crazed Cow and Crazed Whale, and instead spam only Crazed Wall Cat to stop the progress of the Crazed Lizards. Wait for the Otta-smack-us to get to the edge of the Crazed Lizard’s range and then do the same technique over and over. Eventually, you should win.

Strategy 3 (ft. Nerd Cat)

Lineup: 2 cheap meatshields, Butterfly Cat, Paris Cat, Hacker Cat and Jamiera Cat. Dragon Cat is optional, but may be a hassle due to its cost.

First, when the Mooths appear, simply spawn Swimmer Cat and some meatshields to prevent them from damaging the base. When the Mooths die, they should be able to provide you with enough money to upgrade Worker Cat all the way and still have some money left over. The rest of the stage is simple: never stop spawning the meatshields so you can stop the three Crazed Lizards and the Otta-smack-us. Spawn Hacker Cat when you have enough money and enough space to work with; otherwise it will be a waste of money. Jamiera Cat is useful because it can attack the three Lizards directly for about 3 hits before dying. The best way to counter the Otta-smack-us is to spam Paris Cats as soon as they are spawned, which will build up a wall of Paris Cats that will beat the Otta-smack-us in a quick fashion. Use the money gained from the Otta-smack-us to spawn a Jamiera, and do not spawn any more Paris Cats, for they will die from the long range of the Lizards. Repeat this cycle, and remember to never stop spawning meatshields. Ms. Sign will appear after a while, but by that time, you should be about 80% done with the Crazed Lizards.

Strategy 4 (ft. Cats in the Cradle)

Strategy by The Cattle Bats.

Using Baby Cat's True Form, Cats in the Cradle, is your key to victory. Its high stamina, high attack power, level 2 shockwave, and fast cooldown makes this level easy.

Line Up: 2 meatshields, (Crazed) Whale cat, (Crazed) Giraffe Cat, King Dragon Cat, Butterfly Cat, Cats in the Cradle (tested at lv35).

Send out Butterfly Cat with some other cats to kill the Mooths. Have at least 10,000 money then summon the Cats in the Cradle to finish off the rest of the Mooths and spam cats. Try to be near to the Enemy Base as soon as possible as the Crazed Lizards come out. Kill everyone and knock back the Crazed Lizards to their Base (Best when lizard is near to the Enemy Base). Destroy the Base!

Strategy 5 (For people without many TFs/Crazed)

Line up: Crazed Wall, Eraser, A tanky cat that can attack the Lizards (I used Ramen), (King) Dragon Cat, Some ranged area attackers (I used Cameramen, Pole Vaulter, and Delinquent), A cat that can outrange the Crazed Lizards (I used Hacker), Valkyrie, and Bahamut.

Power ups: Sniper (Optional), Rich Cat (Optional but helps massively).

When the battle starts, lure the Mooths close to your base and stall them with Crazed Walls while saving up for Bahamut. Don't lure them too close or your base will be attacked by the Otters and may result in a loss. After Bahamut scores a hit, (if it doesn't kill the otters; send some attackers/Ramens and it will kill them) proceed to send out a few attackers to kill off the Mooths to gain money and upgrade the worker cat to MAX. Proceed to send out Hacker (or a cat that outranges the lizards) and continue to send them out if you can. Stall the Lizards using only Crazed Wall and Ramen. When the 2 otters arrive, continue to stall, and lure them a bit closer. Then start spamming meatshields and Ramens. Then send out Valkyrie and some area attackers to deal with the otters. You must not let your wallet drop below 7000 unless in case of emergency. After you kill the otters continue to do the things mentioned above.

Strategy 6 (Hacker/Sniper Stack)

Lineup: At least 3 meatshields, Any long range attacker (I recommend using cyborg cat), Hacker Cat and Sniper the Recruit.

Recommended items: Cat CPU, Rich Cat

Note: this strategy is time consuming.

Firstly, spam meatshields and use Cyborg Cats to finish up the Mooths. ALWAYS SPAM MEATSHIELDS. Cycle through as many Hacker Cats as you can and a good army of Sniper the Recruits. Only spawn 1-3 Cyborg Cats when you see the Otters spawn, since it is hard to gain money after the beginning. In the end, the Sniper army will knockback the Lizards behind their base, allowing your Hacker Cats to kill off the base.

Strategy 7

Lineup: 2 meatshields, Macho Leg, Paris, Castaway, and the overall strongest* uber you have which outranges the Crazed Lizards.

*when it comes to attack and defence.

At the beginning of the stage, stall the Mooths with a few cheap cats and use Paris or Macho Leg Cat to dispose of them. A high level Paris and Macho Leg Cat are recommended to make quick work of the otters that come out. Always spam your cheap cats and use some Paris/Macho Leg Cats to dispose of the otters. Don't overdo it with them or you’ll drain your wallet. The crazed lizards have a huge range so you shouldn’t continually spam Paris or Macho Leg. Every now and then when your long range uber is recharged send him out, but only if there are no otters in sight. Your uber will probably die many times in this method but it will work.

Strategy 8 (Cheese)

Lineup: Mohawk Cat (20+14), Crazed Wall Cat (12), Eraser Cat (20+10), Ramen Cat (40), Crazed Macho Cat (20), NEK-0 Sky Fortress (29), Orbital Platform Armageddon (26), Seafarer Cat (39+1), Hacker Cat (18+1), Fishman Cat (31).

Start by sending out one Fishman Cat to clear the Mooths, while with the money they drop upgrade your worker cat. Then send out your expensive cats, and start sending out your 5 meatshields. For every two Ramen Cats sent out, one Fishman Cat can be spawned. Keep spamming all the units checking every once in a while for the Seafarer and the Fishman Cats. The lizards should spawn when the enemy base is at ~200,000 health. If at that point your Cat Cannon isn't charged, then spam your units until you can fire it. Otherwise fire it as soon as the lizards come out. It'll knock them back behind the base, while the Fishman Cats will speed towards the base. The Fishman Cats will die but they will make it so other cats can hit the base. Keep spamming your cats until the base dies.

Strategy 9 (For people with a lot of time on their hands)

This strategy is quite accessible for people, Seeing as it contains no ubers.

Lineup: Mohawk Cat (20+10), Eraser cat (20+19), Ramen cat (30+2), Cameraman cat (30+1), Paris cat (30+2), Wrestling cat (30), Jamiera cat (20+16), Sadako cat (30)

Items: Rich cat (optional), Speed up (If you're impatient)

Immediately start by summoning a Sadako Cat to tank the Mooths, and spawn some Paris Cats to kill them. This is very important. Otta-smack-us spawn quite frequently, so you need to do damage fast. When the bosses come out you should spawn Wrestling Cat and Jamiera Cat and hopefully sync the bosses‘ attacks. Then, when the otters spawn, your tanky units will be obliterated, so you must lure the Otters out of the bosses‘ range and summon 3 to 4 Paris Cats and Cameraman Cats. Then, when the Otters are dead, you can use the money you got from them to summon your 2 tanky cats. Rinse and repeat those steps and you should win.

If you've done the strategy well, the lizards should all die about the time that the 1st Ms. Sign comes out

Strategy 10 (Cheese for mid to late game players)

This strategy is very similar to a cheese strategy for Draconian. The higher level the cat, the better.

Lineup: Cool Japan cats, Awakened Bahamut (lvl 23+), Warlock and Pierre (lvl 28+), Lion Cat, Crazed Giraffe Cat, Paris Cat, another spammable high DPS cat.

Items: Rich Cat (NEEDED)

Don't do anything at the beginning of the stage, and wait for the Mooths to approach. When the Mooths are at the base, send in Awakened Bahamut. A. Bahamut should kill the Mooths, filling your wallet. Then send in Warlock and Pierre. Wait a second and then send in all the rest of your attackers. When the Crazed Lizards are out, fire the Cat Cannon to send them behind the base. Warlock and Pierre should then destroy the base in one hit, cheesing the stage. This strategy may take multiple attempts, along with a lot of patience.

Alternately, use the money from the Mooths to get A. Bahamut and other fast heavy hitters to take down the base BEFORE THE LIZARDS EVEN SPAWN.

Strategy 11 (No ubers) (Finish stage within 15 minutes)

This strategy requires a few high level units. Suits mid game players who happened to be stuck in this stage.

Lineup: Two Research UP CatCombos (Biohazard/Bony Bone), Mohawk Cat, Eraser Cat (min. 20+15), Ramen Cat(Level 40+), Jamiera Cat (20+15 or so), Paris Cat/Cyborg (Somewhere around lvl.35, 35+7 is what the author has), Swimmer/Butterfly, and Awakened Bahamut if you have.

Items (optional): Rich Cat

When you start the stage, save up some money and deploy some Erasers and Butterfly Cats. When one of the Mooths are killed, your wallet should be maxed. Use the money to level up your Worker Cat to level 5, and wait for the rest to be killed. When they are killed one by one, max out your Worker Cat and the bosses should come out by the time. Now spawn Ramen Cat and Jamiera Cat. The key is to have Ramen and Jamiera tank damage from the Crazed Lizards and dish out some good damage to them at the same time. When the base spawns Otters, stop spamming the two cats and start spamming Cyborgs/Parises along with Erasers, as the Otters have high DPS and can kill the tanks (Ramen & Jamiera) in around 7-10 hits or so. Repeat and you should win.
