Battleground

• After 3.3 seconds^100f, 9 Wall Doges will be spawned, followed by an Elder Sloth (at 26.7 seconds^800f mark).
• If 3 Wall Doges are killed, they will be replaced by Elder Sloths while the rest are Those Guys when the battle had been on for 50 seconds.

Strategy

To beat this stage, you can go with meatshields when the Wall Doges come out.

If you have a long ranged cat like Radiant Aphrodite or a cat with Shockwave ability, that would be great.

After a while, when the Wall Doges are down, the Elder Sloth number will become 4. To beat them use fast attackers or long-range attacker cats. When the job is done, you can now destroy the base.

You can cheese this level. Simply use meatshields and Warlock & Pierre to hit the base, but make sure that W&P will not get hit by Elder Sloths too.

Strategy 1 (Cheese ft. Zamboney and Major Leaguer)

Use Maniac Macho, Maniac Eraser, Eraser, Zamboney, and Major Leaguer, along with health up combos.

At the start spawn a maniac eraser and then zamboney when you have enough cash, and then continue to meatshield. When you have enough money spawn major leaguer. The major leaguer should miss the wall doges and hit the base. Stack up major leaugers until you win.

guide(rich cat not necessary)

Cheese 2 (ft. Sharpshooter Saki)

For 2 & 3 star stages the Elder Sloth and Wall Doges creep up on your Major Leaguer. I found this consistently easier.

Lineup: 4 meat shields and Sharpshooter Saki)

Combos: Lingerie Special, Two as One, Koi And Dragon or another Cat Cannon Recharge Up combo.

Cat Cannon: Breaker Blast

You'll want to save up enough for Sharpshooter Saki while spamming 3-4 meatshields. Use Breaker Blast when available and you should be able to hold the Wall Doges pinned to their base. Once you spawn Saki she will be out of range, but once you fire the cannon she will move up enough to hit the base for 73k damage a shot. The stage will be over in about 2 minutes.

Rich Cat is useful, but unnecessary.

Strategy 2 (4-star)

This strategy requires literally no effort. Kill the Wall Doges in the beginning (use attackers like Cameraman or Cyborg). Then spawn in Cat God The Awesome and meatshield until he eventually destroys the base.
