Description
Cat O' 9 Tails are uncommon enemies that only appear in three levels: Mudhole Marsh, Screech's Sprint, and Fiery Furnace. If a Cat O' 9 Tails notices Diddy Kong and/or Dixie Kong, it will begin to rapidly twirl and move around, attempting to whip both Kongs with its tails. Cat O' 9 Tails are invulnerable to attack while they spin around, though after a while the Cat O' 9 Tails will collapse from dizziness. While dazed, the Kongs can defeat the Cat O' 9 Tails by jumping on its head or by rolling into it.
The Kongs must generally avoid a Cat O' 9 Tails while it spins around, lest they get caught in its tails. Should the Kongs get caught, the Cat O' 9 Tails will fling them upwards. While this allows the Kongs to collect out-of-reach items, this can also put them in danger, such as sending the Kongs flying into a hazard.
