A cat is a small, furry domesticated mammal of the feline family which is used in both the wizarding and Muggle worlds as a pet.
Description
Cats are sometimes kept as pets of witches and wizards. Students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry are allowed to bring cats, among owls and toads, as a permitted pet at the school.[1]
Cats are also able to interbreed with Kneazles, and generally have up to eight kittens in every litter. Some wizards and witches make a living by breeding Kneazles or part-Kneazles. Arabella Figg, a Squib, made her living in this manner.[2]
It is a possible corporeal form of the Patronus Charm.[3][4] Minerva McGonagall's Patronus is a cat. There are also Animagi wizards and witches, some of whom can assume the form of a cat.

They could see or detect dementors, as Mr Tibbles was able to inform Mrs Figg.[5]
