I wasn't aware that Tigra was included.Sorry. - R.G. 06:26, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
Intress from the cartoon and card game Chaotic, should be listed here...somewhere.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.118.123.125 ( talk) 05:24, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Neko Musume (a yokai catgirl from Gegege no Kitaro) is a classic catgirl from 1959! Where is she? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.233.65.60 ( talk) 02:44, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
What's the definition of the nekomusume category? What differentiates this category from the others? -- Jonathan Drain ( talk) 21:13, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
The article contains a section on "catboys". Given the title of the article, should this section be removed? Sincerely, -- A Nobody My talk 23:34, 21 March 2009 (UTC)
Shouldn't "catgirls" in the title be capitalized? -- 97.123.0.179 ( talk) 19:59, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
Why does this page exist? It seems absolutely pointless. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.165.186.81 ( talk) 05:18, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
Bast is clearly not a catgirl. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.68.131.66 ( talk) 18:38, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
Like the late [[quantum bogodynamics] page, I find this page to be a humorously refreshing find. Diego Bank ( talk) 05:29, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
I love the way that cat woman isn't in there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.167.172.109 ( talk) 06:00, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
Even though the word literally names just the ears, "nekomimi" actually means the entire creature, in both English and Japanese. This is an example of metonymy. No reliable or unreliable source calls these creatures "nekomimi wearers" and so that title fails the guidelines for page titles. It also seems not to include the type of cat-person whose ears are a natural part of his or her body rather than something "worn." I suggest "List of catgirls and catboys" rather than inventing a new term. 130.179.29.61 ( talk) 02:40, 10 October 2013 (UTC)
This is the stupidest Goddamned page on wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.228.130.101 ( talk) 06:34, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
Agreed. This article is pointless. -- Jswf ( talk) 20:57, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
Ichigo Momomiya is incorrectly listed under Catgirls who always have cat ears and a tail. In both the anime and manga she is fully human most of the time, and is only a catgirl when she transforms.

Perhaps the most famous western catgirl is featured in "Catwoman from Channel 6", a TMNT episode. This is a temporary transformation of April. 46.173.12.68 ( talk) 15:54, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
I've removed File:Neko Wikipe-tan.svg since Wikipe-tan is not included in the list. Per WP:IUP, images should illustrate the content of the article. — BillHPike ( talk, contribs) 13:01, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
Lately there's been some back-and-forth edits related to whether catboys should also be included in the article. If the answer is no, one might ask what article they should be included in instead, but as far as I was able to determine, there isn't one. Even Catboy links to an article about a musician and has nothing to with the sort of characters this article addresses. Why have an article for catgirls but not catboys? For that matter, why have an article limited to catgirls (with or without catboys) but not for other animal phenotypes, e.g. foxgirls, rabbit girls, wolf girls, and so forth?
May I propose for your consideration that this article be renamed "List of kemonomimi characters" and refactored to include male as well as female characters, and to include other species phenotypes. Catgirls are the most common and may take up half or more of the article, but at least it would give the other types/genders a place to be listed. One possible issue with this is that the term kemonomimi may imply a narrower focus on anime/manga and other otaku characters where the current list includes some characters that fall outside that realm.
Thoughts? -- mwalimu59 ( talk) 13:31, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
I don’t know if this makes sense without also restructuring the source Catgirl article. Iimmyykk ( talk) 17:30, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
Lately there's been a lot of edit-warring over Hermione Granger's entry in this article, so I'm creating this thread to discuss and hopefully reach a consensus on whether or not she should be listed.
In my opinion, she should not be. Her transformation is a one-off incident that happens in one scene and to my recollection there are no repeat occurrences nor does the possibility arise as a plot or character element. Every other entry in the article that I am familiar with is either a catgirl full-time or transforms into one on a recurring basis (though in some cases it's simply a human in a costume, e.g. Catwoman).
That said, if enough others think she belongs, I'm not going to lose any sleep over keeping her in the article. It's just getting tiresome to see it going back and forth, with some edit comments implying that her removal is vandalism when it's arguable enough to be treated as good faith (even if it's not what we ultimately settle on). So let's work this out. mwalimu59 ( talk) 18:03, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
Is
Hermione Granger a catgirl (and therefore, should she be included in this article)?
As this seems to be a somewhat contentious topic, leading to an ANI thread, I'm starting an RfC as an editor who is personally neutral on the matter. Elli ( talk | contribs) 19:10, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
Is there any possibility for adding a drop down for online exclusive media (webtoons, vtubers, etc)? 184.56.191.206 ( talk) 16:07, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
It looks bad and is too sexual. Why does it need to be like that? Just have an image of a single catgirl from some type of media, idk add neco-arc or something lol. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MisterBasse ( talk • contribs) 21:02, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
