Cat is a strange girl Tori meets at Hollywood Arts. She is best friends with Jade and Tori, along with being the object of Robbie's affections. Near the end of the show, her parents move to help take care of her insane brother, so she ends up moving in with her grandmother. She meets Sam at the time Sam & Cat starts and when her grandmother chooses to move into a retirement home, she and Sam become room-mates and they start a babysitting business together to help pay for their rent.
Cat is almost always cheerful, and is rarely in a bad mood. As an example, in Survival of the Hottest she states that, "I'm really hot, but I'm still in a good mood!", emphasizing the fact that she rarely gets angry or annoyed. In Robbie's song, Robbie's Big Toe, and on a few other occasions throughout the series, she is said to be bipolar. It is possible that she is just very random, excitable, and maybe a little insecure, which sometimes comes in handy. She stated in a Slap video that her mom was a competitive breath holder while she was pregnant with her, which the many baffled doctors her family has visited state as a possible reason as to why she is the way she is.

== Trivia ==
* In "Survival of the Hottest", André states that Cat weighs "only, like, 90 pounds". He might have been exaggerating, but considering her height of 5'0" (1.524 m), this may not be too much of a stretch.
* It has been stated twice that Cat is bipolar.
* The first known product Cat bought from SkyStore was a fake (and poisonous) snow-making machine. Other products she has purchased include the Ball Freshener, The World's Most Powerful Portable Juicer, and The World's Thinnest Tennis Racket, among others.
* Cat bears some similarities to Quinn Pensky from Zoey 101, another Schneider production, even if the two characters exist on the extreme opposite ends of the intelligence spectrum. Both are considered weird by their school, both still eat baby food, both of their best friends were portrayed by Victoria Justice, and both are the shortest of their friend groups.
** Cat's boy-crazy attitudes and general ditziness also make her somewhat similar to Nicole Bristow from the same series.
* Other than Tori, Jade and Andre, Cat has also sang in the show. Most notably, she has performed in duets with Tori and Jade. (LA Boyz and Give It Up.)
* Cat enjoys Sunday afternoon naps.
* Cat is absent for two episodes: Jade Dumps Beck and The Wood.
** Because of this, Catonly has absences in season 1, and she is the only main character who has absences contained in one season.
* On TheSlap.com, Cat reveals that she enjoys to be tickled.
* Cat states in the Pilot that she loves cats. Ironically, Ariana Grande is allergic to cats.
* Cat has naturally curly hair, as revealed in the Pilot. Also, Ariana Grande has naturally curly hair.
* Like Ariana Grande, Cat has also dyed her hair. Cat has never said it is a natural color, and she didn't protest when Sikowitz called her "synthetically red-headed" (Helen Back Again).
* In the episode Robarazzi, it is hinted that two of her uncles are gay when Cat says, "I went to visit my uncle and uncle in San Francisco." This was mentioned by Dan Schneider on his blog, but people can look at it in another way.
* Cat has a cousin and an uncle of the same name: Jesse.
* Cat's screen name is HappyCat.
* Cat's name is short for Catarina, though she says her grandmother is the only one who calls her that and everyone else calls her Cat.
* Cat's grandmother is said to make really good fudge.
* Cat is the only main character who has punched someone (Tori) in the face on-screen for real and not as part of a play. Then she also punched Robbie in the episode April Fools' Blank.
* According to her video profile, Cat's favorite foods are cupcakes, noodles, candies, and potatoes. And according to a post in the Slap her "new favorite food is spaghetti."
* Cat often mentions her brother. It is implied that he is just as weird as she is, if not weirder. It is also confirmed sometimes how her brother gets injured. She seems to care about him, as she states that she "gets nervous when he eats things that aren't food."
** It has not been confirmed yet if Cat only has one brother or more than one brother as she only says "My brother...", which could imply that she has more than one, but refers to them all as "my brother".
* Cat refuses to use "dirty" words.
* Cat's hair is the color of red velvet cupcakes. This is because they're one of her favorite food.
* Cat says in Cat's Random Thoughts that she is allergic to nuts. However, one of her statuses later on TheSlap reads "Almonds are a girl's best friend", which may mean that she is only slightly allergic, is only allergic to certain types of nuts, doesn't know what "allergic" means, or that she was misquoting the phrase, "Diamonds are a girl's best friend," because she didn't know it was "diamonds" instead of "almonds."
* Cat can use her toes to scratch her nose, as seen in Rex Dies.
* Cat's catchphrase, "What's that supposed to mean?", often said at the strangest times, was also said by Misty in Moody's Point, a sketch on the Schneider show The Amanda Show. Interestingly, Misty had curly hair, and when Cat first says this, she has curly hair.
* Cat mentions in The Birthweek Song that she hates helmets.
* Cat loves mass texting.
* In the French animated series, Lolirock, there is a character called "Auriana", heavily inspired by Cat Valentine.
** Ironically, the name Auriana would seem taken from the actress who plays Cat, Ariana Grande.
* In the episode Survival of the Hottest, Cat is shown to have a hot pink bandeau bikini.
* Cat says that she loves elderly people, and thinks it's "so cute" how they shake when they pour their juice.
* Cat has a talent for knowing people's exact clothing and limb measurements. She does not, however, seem able to design new fashions.
** Cat has made herself many outfits for her Costume Design class, including a Sikowitz costume, Little Bo Peep, a spy, and a superhero costume.
* Cat posted on her Slap profile that she can not snap her fingers. However, she snaps her fingers when she remembers the name of sweet & sour sauce in Wok Star. It is possible that she learned how to snap her fingers after she made her video profile.
* Cat revealed on her Slap profile that she sends an average of 407 text messages per day.
* According to her 'Cat Bash' poster, Cat has a crazy neighbor who throws things at people.
* In iParty with Victorious, Cat barely talked for the whole episode, and used a talking headband and a special app on her pear phone. This was because her vocal cords weren't working well. For mysterious reasons, though, she was able to sing at the end of the episode, which does a lot more vocal damage than talking.
* Cat has a dog, according to Stage Fighting.
* Cat's favorite flavor of shaved ice is cherry, according to Survival of the Hottest.
* On one of her The Slap video's someone asked what's wrong with her. Cat said that her parents took her to doctors, and there's a theory that her mom is a competitive breath-holder and she held her breath a lot when she was pregnant with Cat.
* Cat is a member of the Yerbanian prison gang, as she said in Locked Up!.
* Also said in Locked Up! is that Cat loves mushrooms.
* Cat (André, and Tori) are the only ones to have befriended everyone in the group (not counting Rex).
* Cat takes every sentence literally. For example, in iParty with Victorious Lane told her to type anything on the speechy keen app, she did type the word "anything." Indeed, Beck once told Tori to not use wordplay around Cat.
* Cat has a wide variety of talents, as shown in Helen Back Again.
* Cat loves Sesame Street, as mentioned in Terror on Cupcake Street.
* Cat has mentioned on TheSlap that she has a French neighbor whose cat she watches.
* According to her second Tweet Time with Cat video, her brother hit her with a vase (thinking she was a burglar/intruder) and the blood in her hair inspired her to dye her hair.
* Cat's hair has darkened since the first season. It also got a little longer in the second season.
* Cat loves the dancing and singing kid's group The Waggafuffles, as seen in The Diddly-Bops.
* Cat's doctor told her she needs therapy.
* Cat enjoys telling stories to old people, as mentioned in TheSlap.
* Cat has four credit cards.

* Cat is the only main character to not have any of her family members appear on the show.
* Cat keeps candy in her bra as shown in How Trina Got In and Robbie Sells Rex (Gumdrops, gummy bears, jellybeans, and licorice).
* According to Jade in The Breakfast Bunch, Cat is a vegan. Although Cat never said "yes" and there was no proof about her being a vegan. In the episode, Cat bit into the top of the (presumably meat filled) taco. It is not clear if the bite included any meat. She said in the episode A Film by Dale Squires that one time she ate a hamburger, which made her sneeze (though it is not impossible that she became a vegan sometime after this). But in real life, Ariana Grande is, in fact, a vegan.
** In Sam & Cat, Cat claims to love her Nona's meatballs possibly indicating that, befitting her short attention span, her veganism may have been a phase or that she simply doesn't understand veganism.
** Also, considering the potential non-canon nature of The Breakfast Bunch, Cat may not be vegan.
* Starting in Tori Goes Platinum, Cat becomes obsessed with bibble, even pawning off her Nona's jewelry for more at one point.
* Cat's family might have a lot of money because she was able to buy a lot of stuff on the SkyStore, Tap it, and 20 pounds of bibble. Also, her mom works for an extremely wealthy man.
* In Crazy Ponnie, Cat fell asleep during study hall and Jade cuts all of her hair off, making her bald. But her hair comes back in episodes filmed after Crazy Ponnie.
* Cat is possibly a Bade shipper. Because in Hollywood Fruits, a photo gallery she made by herself on TheSlap, one of the pictures which was a picture of Beck as a strawberry the captions says "I made Beck into a strawberry because I like strawberry lemonade and I want Beck and Jade to get back together. So maybe if they see this, they'll realize they're meant to be." Though all of the gang seems to look down on Bade, she seems to do so the least.
** That said, several moments in episodes cast Cat as being more of a Bori shipper, being happy in Opposite Date when she assumed Beck and Tori were dating possibly showing that she supports Bori.
* Cat has a hot pink camera, seen in Tori the Zombie.
* Out of all the Victorious characters, Cat had the second-highest number of fans on TheSlap behind only Tori. She had over a million fans and is one of four characters to have over a million fans, the others being Tori, Jade, and Beck.
* Cat's favorite movie is Titanic.
* According to one of her TheSlap videos, Cat's five favorite words are Happy (number 5), Pretty (number 4), Rumnumsegadigyblog (number 3), cuddly (2) and Sparkly (1).
* Cat can tap dance very well, according to The Hambone King.
* In Wanko's Warehouse, when Trina sends the gang a text message about the huge 80% off sale in Wanko's, you can clearly hear Cat's text alert tone - it's called "Horn", as available on, for example, the iPhone.
* According to Twitter, Cat's locker is pink with a red happy tulip on it.
* Some people believe that Cat wasn't as crazy at the beginning of the series as she was in later seasons.
