 I took a screenshot of it myself too, but found this one online with a google search (not resulting in any information) wich will do just fine as well. Anyone have any idea what is up with the 9 cats that spawned in Denerim's Market District, sitting there in a formation meowing at me? I felt a bit creeped out! Is it because cats have nine lives? Is there some sort of event trigger that can happen if you have the right companion with you (why didn't I have Dog with me! Hah..)? Is it because of some item I have picked up at some point? Or is it the zombie kitten army and a sign of the apocalypse? This peaked my interest--darn you BioWare (in a good way), hehe.

I noticed that the dwarf between the two locked chests over by Gorim were gone too as this happened.
PS: Not a modified game, so any information would actually be quite welcome. It triggered while in the middle of the Orzimmar plot quest for me, but I can't say it triggered because of this and source of the picture stated that it happened for them when Landsmeet was under ways, so I guess it can trigger at any time.

OMG It's the zombie kitten army!

[jinx01313]

Bow down before teh demonized kittiez!

This requires an Achievement! If it is a random rare bug or encounter, give us an achievement that says "Survived an encounter with the nine zombie kittens of doom."--on a more serious note, I love all the tiny things I keep finding as I play the game. And I am actually interested in knowing what the 'story' behind this is.

I think it's a path bug.

[Durallan]

I saw it aswell, I did not know what to make of it myself

[Lucy Glitter]

All creatures have to be placed somewhere. I have a feeling the critters were all placed there and then were scripted to go on their merry way. Something broke their scripting, methinks.

[Neil Decurio]

I was thinking about that too, but I can't recall 9 cats in Denerim Market - to be honest at the moment I can't even remember one. And the dorf between the two chests over by Gorim were gone too. That could just be additional bug on some placement code though. I also wonder if it might have been a 'build' map that wasn't properly removed from the game and bug-loads. Or if it is some sort of a easter egg-"We're gonna mess with your heads"-thing that BioWare intentionally has placed in the game. It could be that something happens if Dog was with me, I didn't have him there and they were gone when I re-visited, so didn't get the chance to check it out. One of my playthroughs I will keep Dog in my group through the whole game as I go there I guess, hehe.

Regardless, it is always fun to come across small little weird things when you are enjoying a game as much as I am with DA:O.

Had this happen in my game also, right after I re-visited Brother Genetivi to get my item out of him.

[The Angry One]

Not fair I want a kitty army too.

[Spava]

Better not show em' to Shale!

Yep that happened to me as well (and I took a screenshot, too). I was wondering if it was some kind of easter egg somehow, or if it was just screwy spawning/pathing.

[cedardryad]

Happened to me as well. I tried to interact with them, but was unsuccessful.

[Cuthlan]

It's not nine cats, it's ten. You shouldn't be so worried about the nine you can see, and more worried about the one you don't...

[Varenus Luckmann]

That's just freaky. Never had that happen.

Nah, cats eat birds. Thus cats are Shale's natural allies.

[Korva]

Aw. I want a kitty patrol in my game, too.

[Neil Decurio]

When looking around a little more, I noticed that basically all citizen NPC's were gone from the area. Re-visiting the area later I did actually find a cat of the same type as well, over by Wade's. So at least there is one cat in Denerim Market normally, but I can't find 9 of them, hehe. Unless... all of the citizens in Denerim is in fact cats.. that shapeshift into humans to trick me... *paranoid-hat made of tin on*

just happen today, not too long ago, i did notice a cat at wades, i went in to get my dragonbone armor and came out... on my way to genetivi and i noticed 9 cats in FORMATION. don't know? was kinda freaky! and i also noticed all citizens were gone?



but i'm gona try and reload and see if the cats appear again, but this time with my war dog!

[Forumtroll]

I believe it's for finishing the "K" questline.

[Whailor]

I had this happen too, just as I was about to enter the elven alienage for the first time. Everything else on market was normal, NPC's were all there, walking around and doing their stuff. Just these cats were weird. I doubt it's a pathing issue, if it was then NPC's usually bunch up in some spot from where their pathing becomes messed up, these cats however stand in a perfect formation.

For a moment I thought that maybe there's even some dog or mouse formation on opposite side and I'll see some feline-canine-... eh.. mouse'ine.. showdown but no, just the cats.

That's something Craig put in on purpose. It's the zombie kitten army. Or at least the scouts doing recon on the place before the invasion. I think it only appears when you go into Denerim for the... 42nd (?) time? You'll have to ask Craig.

[chiliztri]

Ahhh, the zombie kitten army.



Inside jokes are awesome.

I know someone who'll be zoning in and out of denerim a few times now.

Oh great, and now there's a 42 joke on top of the zombie kitten army.
If it's what it takes to make it happen, no wonder I could never see it.
