Mooth (Floating)

Mooth (ガガガガ Gagagaga) is a Floating enemy that appears in the Main Chapters and Legend Stages.

Enemy

In addition to his serviceable attack pool and movement speed, Mooth has a repetitive but unorthodox attacking technique where he winds up, rams your cats, and lowers down, all taking a little over a second to execute.

The damage-dealing part of Mooth's one-second attack animation is right in the middle, so if new players spam cheap cats that have a quick cooldown period, they will discover that Mooth's pushing power is greatly lowered. This tactic is often referred to by not-so-new players as 'meatshielding,' and will be expanded upon later in Empire of Cats, hint hint.

In the Legend Stages, Mooth's position as a backline enemy is quickly stolen by Owlbrow, an enemy who behaves similarly to Mooth but moves slower and has more attack power in proportion to his health. You'll still be seeing plenty of Mooths in your adventures, because this enemy drops a large amount of money when defeated, and many stages later in the game use Mooths as a money provider.

Strategy

If you have real trouble with Mooth, use Cat and Tank Cat to stall him, then use strong attackers like Titan Cat or long-ranged cats like Lizard Cat.

A good method to defeat Mooth is to overwhelm him with fast-hitting units, like Cow Cat or Swimmer Cat. This enemy is Floating, so ranged anti-Floating Cats can be useful against him.
