In The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, the world is filled with cats that you can collect to earn special rewards. While most of the enemies you fight are variations of real animals, cats are the only docile creatures in the game. However, this doesn’t mean that all of them trust humans. Some let you approach them, but others will run away as soon as they spot you.
To populate every street in the Kingdom of Huther with these small felines and claim all the rewards, you will need to discover where to find all the cats in The Adventures of Elliot.
How to collect cats in The Adventures of Elliot
Although you come across some cats fairly early in the game, you can’t interact with them at first. You can only start collecting cats after completing the “Capricious Neighbors” side quest in the Age of Safekeeping. This quest introduces the Ailurophilic Traveler, a mysterious figure who’s interested in seeing more cats.
In the game, there are 50 cats. To complete the side quest, you’ll find two inside the city. So, technically you only need to collect the remaining 48. As you find them, you can unlock the following rewards from the Ailurophilic Traveler:
- Cat needle — 5 cats
- Bomb pouch — 10 cats
- Quiver — 20 cats
- Golden egg — 35 cats
- Medal of the Katzenmeister — 50 cats
By talking to Ailurophilic Traveler, you can check how many cats you’ve found and how many remain both in general and in the specific age you’re currently visiting.
Once you obtain the cat needle — and have progressed in the campaign to unlock the magic compass — cat icons will appear on your map, helping you find them all. You can also check if a cat is located inside a dungeon or cave you already visited by selecting the location on the map and seeing if a cat icon appears next to the place’s name.
You can only find all 50 cats if you go through the process to unlock the game’s true ending. For more details, check the list of each age below.
