Zombie Cat (Special Cat)

This article is about the Cat Unit. For the enemy unit, see Skelecat (Enemy). For the other unit named Devil Cat, see Devil Cat (Special Cat).

Zombie Cat is a Special Cat that can be purchased for 120 Cat Food in the Upgrade Menu after completing Madagascar in Empire of Cats Chapter 1. True Form grants Area Attack, strength against Zombies and the Zombie Killer ability.

Cat Unit # 19
Special Cat

Cat

Evolves into Devil Cat at level 10.

Evolves into Skelecat when obtained from the Zombie Awakens! Stages (may be dropped on the first stage but guaranteed on the second stage) and is level 20 or above.

Pros

• Good recharge time.
• Strong against Red Enemies (Red and Zombie in True Form).
• True Form has Area Attack and stops Zombies from reviving.
• Decent attack rate.
• Part of 2 Research up (Sm) Combos: Biohazard and Bony Bone

Cons

• Single-target attacks, except in True Form.
• Low HP.
• Short range.
• Becomes outclassed by Island Cat and Crazed Whale Cat, both of which have higher stats.
• Somewhat slow.
• Quickly drains money due to high cost.

Strategy/Usage

• Zombie Cat is meant to be a light version of Fish Cat, as he is weaker, but cheaper and faster-recharging. Use him against some of the weaker Red enemies.
• Skelecat is great at crowd control on grouped-up Red and Zombie enemies. He is a versatile unit that can be used in a lot of areas and succeed, and is particularly useful for Zombie Outbreaks thanks to his Zombie Killer ability.
• Although Skelecat quickly becomes outclassed, he is included in two notable Cat Combos: Biohazard and Bony Bone, both of which makes other cats more spammable. These two Combos are useful in many late-game stages such as No Plan A (Deadly).
