== Heritage ==
=== Purebred (Catfolk) ===
These Catfolk have a very feline maw complete with whiskers and sharp teeth. Fur covers most of their body which often reflect patterns found on great cats. They sport tails, digitigrade legs, and have a blend of feline and humanoid hands & feet they refer to as paws. Purebreds take pride in their ancestry ancestry and try to preserve their bloodline, believing they are the only true Catfolk. Due to your eyes being the closest to your animal kin you gain darkvision.
=== Thundercat (Catfolk) ===
A lack of tail, plantigrade legs, scalp hair and human-like facial features distinguish this pedigree from the Purebred. While they may not have whiskers or an exaggerated maw, they retain most other features such as a fur-covered body, rounded ears, and the like. Even some of their teeth retain their sharpness. Thundercats tend to have more muscle-mass than the other pedigrees and a strong sense of justice. You gain the Hefty Hauler feat.
=== Half-Catfolk (Human) ===
Often called nekojin, either one of your parents was a catfolk, or one or both were half-catfolk. You have cat ears, a tail, and other telltale signs of catfolk heritage. You gain the catfolk trait and low-light vision. In addition, you can select catfolk, half-catfolk, and human feats whenever you gain an ancestry feat.

== Behind the Scenes ==
* I tried to reflect the first edition Catfolk as much as possible. Some language was taken from the 1st edition Catfolk entry.
* I left out the lore info that usually accompanies race entries since 2nd edition has the same lore as first you can just use first edition lore in the Catfolk race entry.
* Level 5 &13 Ancestry Feats always do something with weapons critical specialization effect or weapon proficiency. Since Catfolk have no iconic weapon or weapons with the Catfolk trait I decided to use their iconic Cat's Luck at those levels since it is pretty powerful. I considered adding claw blades but didn't want to add a feat that only worked with 1 exotic weapon.
* While I imagine everyone will call them Nekojin, I referred to them as Half-Catfolk to be consistent with other half heritages.
* There are no rules for what PCs can do with their tails if they have prehensile strength (grab things, wield things, etc.), so until they release such rules when they release a Heritage with a tail such as kobold you and your GM will have to decide what you can do with your tail.
