The Kitties

"The kitties clap for fish. But you can't just do any clapping. You have to clap in time! If you clap off beat, no fish for you."
— Play Nintendo

The Kitties^[1] (ネコたちが^?, Neko-tachi) are three orange cats in the Rhythm Game Kitties! in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

They are joined by the Backup Mice (魚をくれる人^?, Sakana o Kureru Hito) during their performance.

Story[]

The Kitties perform a clapping routine. They are rewarded with fish if they clap well, though as only one fish is provided at a time, they have to be quick^[2]. During their performance, two of the kitties are swapped out for Backup Mice, who also give commentary on their performance.

Trivia[]

The Kitties' performance is rated by different characters across each language. In the English, Italian and Spanish versions, this is done by the Backup Mice. In all other languages, it is the person giving the fish.
