For more info and a fix, see Cat cancels Store Item in Stockpile: Too injured. However, because they lack body parts that can grasp, they will cancel the task with a "too injured" message, leaving the vermin on the floor for another dwarf to clean up. (See Breeding)Ĭats are also infamous for the catsplosion: if you are not careful, cats will be everywhere, causing your FPS to plummet, and killing pets causes a strong unhappy thought to the owner.Ĭats, by nature, will attempt to pack vermin to their owners - often, the owner will then dismiss the cat, at which point the cat will attempt to bring the vermin remains to an appropriate refuse stockpile. I really wanted to be able to play fully offline, so I hacked a quick and crude portable DF wiki server. But the Wiki is an invaluable piece of information players need. Don't believe everything you read, and if you miss some of the references, don't worry. Dwarf Fortress is a great offline game, and I like to take my worlds on my USB key. It may include witty humour, not-so-witty humour, bad humour, in-jokes, pop culture references, and references to the Bay12 forums. As a breeding pair of cats only costs 22 embark points, this is well worth considering - just cage and/or butcher the kittens as they are born, lest the kittens grow to adopt a dwarf before their last voyage. This article or section has been rated D for Dwarf. If you can resist their cuteness and charm, and you get to them before they adopt a dwarf, kittens can be butchered to provide a small never-ending trickle of skin (to become leather), bones (for a variety of end-products) and meat for your fort. If a cat is caged, it will not adopt, however it may adopt the moment it is taken from the cage (perhaps to be immediately butchered), regardless of who takes it.Ĭats are useful around the fort to prevent the unhappy thoughts produced by vermin, and also for producing large numbers of kittens. Cats will only choose dwarves who have the preference " admires cats for their aloofness". They also seem to want to wander every room, hall and mineshaft at least once, perhaps due to some modeling of curiosity.Ĭats cannot be assigned as pets instead, cats choose dwarves as owners. A plain-speak guide for folks starting a new Dwarf Fortress. The creatures in the game range from being entirely realistic to completely mythical. They are fairly weak animals in combat (but combat can be quite random, and they have been known to surprise players on the rare occasion). In Dwarf Fortress, a creature is defined as any animate, normally-mobile (and for the sake of this article, non-vermin) being that can interact with the world and any element inside it. Cats will kill vermin in and around your fortress.
