Hellcat

A Hellcat or a Hell-kitten is a cat that players can only obtain after starting the Evil Dave section of Recipe for Disaster.

To turn your cat into a Hellcat, head to the basement in the house of Evil Dave's Mother, Doris. Tell your kitten or cat to "Chase Vermin". After it has killed a sufficient amount of hellrats (about 7 for cats and 10 for kittens), your cat or kitten will become a Hellkitten or Hellcat. Clockwork cats cannot be turned into hell cats. It is possible to make an overgrown cat into a hellcat but it must first be made into a wily cat, after which it can become either a wily or lazy hellcat.

Hellkittens will still grow into Hellcats and Hellcats will still grow into Overgrown Hellcats. Hellcats can still be wily or lazy. To turn your Hellcat back into a regular cat, just feed it some milk. Alternatively, you can talk to Evil Dave's Mother with your cat out or have Wendy turn it purple.

If you are leading a hellcat in Varrock and the stray dog begins to follow you, your hellcat will hiss at it and the dog will flee for a short time. It appears that Hellcats follow or worship Zaros. Thus their reaction when you accept the Shoo-away option: "Thank Zaros for that! Finally, some freedom from your ugly face!"



Wily and lazy hellcats
Wily cats, as well as lazy cats, can become Wily Hellcats and Lazy Hellcats by having the cat catch Hellrats or by having it as a Hellcat at an earlier age then training it to be a Wily or training it to become a Wily and letting it become Lazy.

Trivia

 * When you ask your hellcat what it wants to do during chat, it will say how ghouls and demons get along together. When your character asks further, the cat says "Demons are a Ghoul's best friend." This is a reference to the Marilyn Monroe song, "Diamonds are a girl's best friend."
 * It has been confirmed by JaGeX that hellkittens grow faster than normal kittens.
