Sprunki But Cats

About Sprunki But Cats

The internet was built on two things: catchy music and cat videos. It was only a matter of time before these two unstoppable forces collided in the Sprunki Incredibox universe. Sprunki But Cats (often titled Sprunki C.A.T.S. or Incredibox KATS) is the "purr-fect" modification that replaces the familiar humanoid beatboxers with a roster of feline performers.

If you thought the original Sprunki characters were iconic, wait until you see them with whiskers, tails, and an obsession with laser pointers. This mod isn't just a visual reskin; it’s a complete audio overhaul that swaps heavy bass for deep purrs and melodic choirs for harmonious meows. Whether you are a "Warrior Cats" fan or just here for the memes, this game offers a fresh, furry twist on the Sprunki formula.

What is Sprunki But Cats?

Sprunki But Cats is a fan-made browser game modification found on platforms like Scratch and Sprunki fan sites. It takes the core engine of Incredibox Sprunki and applies a "Feline Filter" to everything.

In this universe, the human (or humanoid) traits are gone. The characters are reimagined as different breeds of cats—from Tabby to Siamese to fantastical neon felines—that match their original color palettes. The vibe is generally lighter and cuter than the standard game, making it a hit with younger players and streamers looking for a wholesome break from the usual horror mods. However, like all things Sprunki, there is often a hidden dark side waiting to be unleashed.

The Lore: A Catastrophe in the Studio

Why is everyone a cat? The community lore for Sprunki But Cats usually revolves around a magical mishap or a parallel dimension event.

The "Cat King" Theory

The most popular narrative suggests that Black (the antagonist of the series) grew tired of the constant noise and decided to cast a spell to turn everyone into his obedient servants. However, the spell backfired. Instead of minions, he turned everyone into cats. Now, Cat-Black aims to become the "Cat King," while the other Sprunkis (now kittens and strays) use their new feline voices to sing the song of rebellion.

The Warrior Timeline

Another variation, often called the Sprunki Warrior Cats Mod, leans heavily into the Warrior Cats book series aesthetic. In this version, the characters are part of a Clan in the forest. Oren might be the brave apprentice, while Wenda is the wise medicine cat. The "beats" are the sounds of the forest—leaves rustling, birds chirping, and the rhythmic padding of paws.

Gameplay Mechanics: Meow-sic Creation

The gameplay remains faithful to the Incredibox drag-and-drop style, but the audio feedback is hilariously unique.

1. The Sound of Meows

Every loop has been re-recorded or synthesized to fit the theme.

• Percussion: Replaced by scratching posts, deep purring basslines, and the sound of cats jumping on furniture.
• Melodies: Synthesized "Nyan Cat" style 8-bit sounds or actual recorded meows pitched up and down to create a tune.
• Vocals: The characters don't sing lyrics; they caterwaul, chirp, and trill in harmony.

2. Visual Cuteness (and Chaos)

The animations are a highlight.

• Idle Animations: Instead of standing still, the characters groom themselves, chase their tails, or sleep.
• Interaction: When you mute a character, they might curl up into a ball or hide in a cardboard box.

3. The "Feral" Mode

Just like the original game has a Horror Mode, Sprunki But Cats often features a "Feral" or "Stray" mode. Dragging the special icon (usually a black cat or a spiked collar) transforms the cute kittens into hissing, scratched-up alley cats with glowing eyes. The music shifts from a playful jingle to a distorted, eerie soundscape of hisses and growls.

Character Guide: The Kitty Cast

Who is that cat in the window? Here is a breakdown of how your favorite Sprunki characters appear in their feline forms.

Oren (The Tabby Beat)

• Appearance: Often depicted as a standard orange tabby cat (referencing the "Orange Cat Energy" meme).
• Role: He provides the main beat, usually a rhythmic "Boing" sound or a low-pitched meow that mimics a kick drum.

Wenda (The Long Cat)

• Appearance: A sleek, long-bodied cat (possibly a Siamese or Sphynx). In some meme versions, her neck extends infinitely like the "Long Cat" internet meme.
• Role: She provides the high-pitched, haunting vocals that tie the mix together.

Black (The Void)

• Appearance: A fluffy black cat with bright white or red eyes. He looks grumpy and ominous.
• Role: The bass/effect heavy hitter. His sound is a deep, rumbling growl that shakes the screen.

Jevin (The Blue Russian)

• Appearance: A blue-grey cat with a hood or a cool demeanor.
• Role: He brings the cool, melodic synth lines, often sounding like a "techno-cat."

Expanding Your Sprunki Collection

If the cuteness of Sprunki But Cats has you looking for more unique spins on the game, the modding community has plenty to offer. Whether you want to see the characters as dogs, robots, or even food items, there is a mod for that.

For a comprehensive list of the most creative and bizarre modifications available, you should check out the Sprunki Mods category. This hub is the best place to find other "animal" versions or to dive back into the human-centric (but still crazy) mods that started it all.

Community Trends and Memes

Sprunki But Cats is a darling of the YouTube algorithm. Content creators love to use this mod for:

• "Guess the Voice" Challenges: Videos where they play a "meow" sound and viewers have to guess which Sprunki character it belongs to.
• Animation Memes: Artists on TikTok draw the "Cat Sprunkis" in scenarios based on trending cat videos (like the cat vibing to music).
• Nuzlocke Challenges: Some players invent rules where if a cat character is "muted" (eliminated) during a run, they are considered "adopted" and removed from the game, adding a layer of imaginary stakes.

Tips for the Perfect Feline Mix

1. Balance the Purrs: The "Bass" cats (usually Black and Brud) can be very loud. Don't overpower the mix with too much low-end purring; let the melody cats shine.
2. The Hiss Drop: Use the "Effect" cats (who often make hissing or scratching sounds) as transitions. A well-timed hiss is the perfect way to introduce a beat drop.
3. Unlock the Secret: In some versions, clicking on the moon or a specific yarn ball in the background triggers a secret animation where all the cats start dancing.

Conclusion

Sprunki But Cats is the wholesome (and occasionally creepy) palate cleanser the community needed. It proves that the core design of Incredibox—layering sounds to make a groove—works no matter what species is performing.

Whether you are a dedicated cat person, a Sprunki lore hunter, or just someone who needs a smile, this mod delivers. It’s cute, it’s catchy, and it gives a whole new meaning to "making the beat drop" (usually off a table).
