Cat Goombas are a variant of Goombas that appear in Super Mario 3D World, Bowser's Fury, and Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker.

Physical description[]

They are Goombas, but with orange fur and a white-tipped cat tail and ears. Their feet are white cat's paws.

In Super Mario series[]

Super Mario 3D World[]

Cat Goombas attack by jumping, then diving down, in the same way that Cat Mario can. Like Mario, they meow when doing this. They can be defeated with any attack, sometimes dropping a Super Bell. Cat Goombas are introduced in Super Bell Hill and reappear in Mount Beanpole, Mystery House Melee, and The Great Tower of Bowser Land.

Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[]

In the Nintendo Switch port, specifically in Bowser's Fury's Lake Lapcat, there is a variant of Goombas that resemble Cat Goombas, only their cat-like appearance is just an aesthetic difference, and they do not gain any new abilities. As such, the Cat Goombas here behave like regular Goombas (i.e. chasing the player as soon as they spot them), and have their standard brown coloring.

In Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker[]

With Super Bell Hill making an appearance as a retro stage in the Wii U version of Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, Cat Goombas return as well, acting the same as in their previous appearance.
