Cat Mario makes its debut in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and returns in ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', serving as the main form of the game, much like [[Tanooki Mario]] was in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', and is gained upon collecting a [[Super Bell]]. In this form, Mario can briefly climb up or cling to both walls and the [[Goal Pole]]. Mario also has the ability to claw dive on [[List of enemies|enemies]] from midair to slam into them, similar to a [[dive]] attack. He can also claw swipe enemies in front of him (which can spin [[Cat Wheel]]s, similar to [[Tanooki Mario]] tail-whipping [[Tail Wheel]]s in ''Super Mario 3D Land''), as well as [[Roll|slide into them]]; however, he cannot defeat [[Bullet Bill]]s or [[Banzai Bill]]s with this method, which simply causes them to change direction instead. Cat Mario runs at a crouching height, and he also breaks into a sprint significantly sooner than in any other form. If any character touches the [[Goal Pole]] in Cat form in a level that uses the regular level victory music, that character says "meow" while doing the victory pose. A jingling sound can sometimes be heard when the player jumps. When Peach is in her Cat form and uses her [[Floating Jump]], she performs an animation similar to a [[Scuttle]] while clawing at the air.

There is an alternate version of the form that is obtained by grabbing a [[Lucky Bell]], which is the same as normal Cat Mario except that it has a red collar and a bronze bell that looks like the Lucky Bell. During that state, Mario can turn into [[Lucky Cat Mario]], similar to [[Tanooki Mario]]'s [[Statue Mario|Statue form]] in ''Super Mario 3D Land'' (though the Lucky Cat form is invincible, rather than invulnerable and ignored, and it gives bonus coins while falling); its appearance is similar to that of a ''{{wp|maneki-neko}}''. If Mario collects a [[Super Bell]] while in this form, he "downgrades" to normal Cat Mario, unlike collecting a [[Super Mushroom]] while Mario already has a power-up (similar to the [[Super Leaf]] and [[Tanooki Suit]]/[[Statue Leaf]]).

When [[Bowser]] becomes [[Meowser]], he uses a different transformation scene from that of the other characters: instead of shifting between his normal and Cat forms during the transformation, he becomes surrounded by orange light, and a jingling sound can be heard. As Meowser, Bowser has white and orange fur with brown stripes, similarly to a tiger, a ringed tail, cat ears instead of horns, whiskers, and his nose is black. Also, his hair is colored red, white and brown, and his shell appears to become more blueish. Like Cat Goombas and [[Cat Bullet Bill]]s, his form is more akin to a transformation than an actual suit. However, in addition to this form's abilities, he can also tail whip, like Tanooki Mario, and he retains his fire breath.
