(Note that other animals also have smaller immature sizes and butchering returns, but most other immature domestics return a more reasonable percentage of adult returns for example, immature dogs consistently return about 50% of adult returns and include byproducts (e.g.
#CAT DWARF FORTRESS WIKI FULL#
Unfortunately there is no in-game way to tell for sure whether a particular animal is an immature or full adult. Immature adult cats (less than 2 years old) may return about 2 meat, fat & bone, 1 skin, and 1 skull, or may only return a skull, while full adults (> 2 yrs) consistently return about 6-7 meat & fat. Kittens can not be butchered for bones: only skulls will be created. For example, use them as bait for a Forgotten beast if it has some sort of poison, in order to determine what the poison does. If you have a bunch of unwanted kittens, there are many uses for them. This can be hard to resolve due to the fact that killing pets causes a strong unhappy thought to their owners. If you are not careful, your cat population may explode causing your FPS to plummet. (See Breeding.)Ĭats are also infamous for the phenomenon known as catsplosion. As a breeding pair of cats only costs 22 embark points, this is well worth considering - just cage and/or butcher the kittens as they are born, lest the kittens grow to adopt a dwarf before their last voyage. If you can resist their cuteness and charm, and you get to them before they adopt a dwarf, cats can be butchered to provide a small, never-ending trickle of skin, bones and meat for your fort. If a cat is caged, it will not adopt however, it may adopt the moment it is taken from the cage (even if assigned for immediate butchering).Ĭats are useful around the fort to prevent the unhappy thoughts produced by vermin and also for producing large numbers of kittens. Cats will only choose dwarves who have the preference " admires cats for their aloofness". Cats do not require any food.Ĭats cannot be assigned as pets instead, cats choose dwarves as owners. They also seem to want to wander every room, hall and mineshaft at least once, perhaps due to some modeling of curiosity. They are fairly weak animals in combat (but combat can be quite random, and they have been known to surprise players on the rare occasion). It is usually domestic and hunts vermin.Ĭats will kill vermin in and around your fortress.
