Tips & Strategies

Wait… it’s a cat, why is it the ONE thing that doesn’t prefer kibble?!?!?
More Cat Taming & KO Tips
Wildcard patched being able to bring them to water to tame. It's just to stop it from scratching you. You can also punch them to get them to come off, bolas don't seem to work once they're latched onto you (maybe a tribemate can do it for you).
From what we've tried you can't tame them even if they have the yellow symbol, and just had to kill any of them that don't have the green symbol. They all just say "This cat doesn't want to be tamed by you". Bring a friend/tribemate to better the odds of them liking one of you since they like different people. It seems to be much like the IRL "cat distribution system".
Also had better luck with spawns on The Island as opposed to The Center, not sure about Astraeos.
Use prime fish(get by killing larger salmon and harvest with a pick or preferably sickle) also can get from sharks with the same tools
Seriously all these new tips being posted with saying bring it to the water to tame it, try it first before you waste peoples time. YOU CAN NOT BRING IT TO WATER TO TAME IT ANYMORE! Unless my server is just bugged. Someone try it and let me know….
Full ghillie and cactus broth to make murder mittens not rip your face off sneak up on them passive tame. They are able to breed and clone.
Use prime fish meat to passive tame... if you attack one it will scratch your face ( I had to try it for ark science)
Stand outside and say “Pspspspsps”
Its top preferred foods are raw prime fish meat and wyvern milk. Go up to it and feed the food. FINALLY SOMETHING THAT DOESNT PREFER KIBBLE!
What is the point of the patch if I can’t find a green symbol cat I liked the water method
They share spawns with common beach tames. I found 2 on center around blue ob by circling the island on a char and killing everything that spawns. They are a rare spawn so it takes a while. Taming them varies depending on the cats temperament. Red or yellow you have to let them latch on your face and run to water to get them off then they'll allow you to feed them. Green is just passive feed.
