Needy Cats v1.2.5 [v80]

You like cats? The company likes cats too! Find them roaming the various abandoned facilities and bring them home*!

Ever wanted to bring felines into Lethal Company? It is now possible with this mod! You will see cats that roam around, meow (loudly, be careful!) and sit down when they feel safe.

Make sure to pet them regularly, otherwise they may attract unwanted guests with their noise.

The host can modify the spawn rate of cats (default to 20) and modify the pool of available cat names as well as assign specific fur colors per name if desired.

*The company pledges not to harm the cats.

Known issues

  • Some screen effects make the cats see through.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
