This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness

Speaking of, I accidentally read it as "list of all individual cats" at first 😄

The cat is more famous than the monk lol

Mittens (~2009 to present), a ginger Turkish Angora who wandered Wellington, New Zealand especially in Te Aro, before his relocation to Auckland. He has a Facebook fanbase who regularly post photos of him climbing into rental cars, entering businesses, and napping in unusual places

Hell yeah! Sounds like a very fun cat! 🥰

  • Luffar-Lasse (Swedish: "Lasse the Vagabond"), an orange cat that gained notoriety for his daily excursions to the Överby shopping center in Trollhättan, Sweden. His return home is usually done by hitchhiking in one of the shopping center's visitor's car. He became associated with the Swedish annual charity fundraiser Musikhjälpen of which he has brought in more than 2,000,000 SEK.[15] In 2024 he starred in the Slow television show "En helg med Luffar-Lasse"[16] and a statue in his honor was erected close to his usual whereabouts at the Överby shopping center.[17]

FUCK yeah!

Rusik, the Russian police sniffer cat in Stavropol, who died in the line of duty fighting against illegal endangered sturgeon fish traffic in 2003.

Fascist hellscape Russia's only representative on the list being a fucking COP is a little too on the nose if you ask me 🤦😄

Tibs the Great (November 1950 – December 1964) was the British Post Office's "number one cat" and kept the post office headquarters completely mouse-free during his 14 years of service

Lived up to his name! 💪🥰

Oh hell yeah
