Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Sometimes Cats Are Mean, sometimes cats are cute, (sometimes they're both) but if there's one thing all cats exude, it's cool. Cats stride around with a collected confidence and utter grace, always one step ahead of the curve without a care in the world. And why not? From their perspective, they run the world without ever having to get up from their nap. And in fiction, this is no exception: evil or no, cats are graceful, collected and unshakably cool - the shades-wearing cool cat who never misses a beat is a popular version, as is the witty cat who never has to stop relaxing, or the impeccably collected feline, but the most dominant trait is that air of never having to lose their confident demeanor. If combined with Cats Are Mean, this can result in cats being aloof. Even so, evil cats are often Affably Evil for precisely this reason. Cats are often associated with jazz music for this reason as well (as seen in The Aristocats for example), stemming from the fact that the word "cat" was used in 1930's and 40's jive slang to mean generally anyone who was cool. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Combining with Cute Kitten can result in cats being both cool and cute. Sometimes, the cool cat is a Sexy Cat as well. Not necessarily a Cool Pet. For big cats with badass qualities, see Panthera Awesome. Contrast Buffoonish Tomcat. Examples: |

A major theme in The Aristocats, from upbeat wanderer Thomas O'Malley, to collectedly refined Duchess, to swingin' hep cat Scat Cat, the moral of the story is "nothing keeps a good cat down." | |

Garfield, especially in situations where he's not either the aggressor or the guy being put down. His ability to sit around impassive with a smirk and a quip is often the funniest part of the strip. | |

Percy from Pooch and Percy is a perfect of the "cats are cool" via "cats are aloof," where he thinks he's too cool for everyone around him, and acts accordingly. | |

The Pink Panther is the quintessential example, of the "never has to lose his cool" variety - even in cartoons where he's the Butt-Monkey, he always keeps his silent wit and rhythmic step. | |

Salem the cat from Sabrina the Teenage Witch - and he thinks he's even cooler than he is. And in the Animated Adaptation, he almost manages to be. |
