Champ

**This page's content relates to Cattails's newly-released sequel, Cattails: Wildwood Story.**
Because Wildwood Story has just been released, parts of this page may be lacking information. Please be patient, or help out if you'd like!

### Marriageable

Yes

**Champ** is a short-furred brown tabby cat with yellow eyes. They are a resident of the player's colony in Cattails: Wildwood Story.

The bundle to recruit Champ requires three Crabs, one Snake, and five Voidmarrow. Their bundle is not available until one cat has already been recruited.

## Personality

Champ is very competitive and will never back down from a challenge. They like working out, and dislike laziness. They are very boastful, but will warm up to the player and give them battle tips eventually. Champ is very protective of the cats they love, and tries to do everything they can to help the colony.

## Den

"They'd probably fight you if you tried to set foot inside. It's not worth it until you get to know them better. You see some training equipment inside. Champ must spend a lot of time here. It smells like sweat."

## Events

Many cats experience both regular and rival marriage events, including Champ.

**Regular Events**

TBA

**Rival Marriage Events**

These are events that may lead up to various cats pairing up and having kittens, given the player is not dating any involved cat.

Inside, the player will see **Krampy** trying to choose a possible cure for **Elli's** headache. As they look through their storage, **Champ** will enter. They ask **Elli** if **Krampy** is a cat, to which **Elli** attempts to reassure them that **Krampy** is simply the colony's doctor.
**Krampy** will pull out a Honeycomb to give to **Elli.** Concerned for **Elli's** safety, **Champ** insists that they could easily go get fresh Honeycomb themselves for **Elli,** and asks the player to stop **Elli** from eating it.
If the player chooses **"Don't eat that!"**, **Elli** will state their headache has only gotten worse because of the player and **Champ**, leaving to sleep the headache off. By choosing this option, the player *loses* 20 points of friendship with **Elli,** but *gains* 30 with **Champ.**
 **Elli & Champ #2** | If the player has met **Champ** and Elli, has at least 3-star friendship with both, and is not dating or married to either, then this event may trigger in **Elli's** den between 8 AM and 10 PM.

Inside, the player will see **Champ** gifting **Elli** a Mouse they caught for them. They insist to **Elli** that they can catch way more than just a Mouse, having caught thousands before. **Elli** says that it already means a lot, and the conversation quickly becomes awkward.
 **Elli & Champ #3** | If the player has met **Champ** and Elli, has at least 4-star friendship with both, and is not dating or married to either, then this event may trigger in **Champ's** den.

Inside, **Champ** is showing **Elli** where they work out each day, talking about their daily training routine. Impressing **Elli,** they state they must stay strong in case a threat appears in order to protect what they love. They go on to state their efforts aren't just for the colony, but also for **Elli** specifically.
Before **Champ** can walk back their statement, **Elli** says they feel that **Champ** could protect both the colony and **Elli** themself. The event ends with **Champ** thanking **Elli** for understanding.

That Weasel is mine." ***(Normal)***

The leaves are about to turn, which means it's almost **mushrooms** season. / I know a couple good spots for **mushroom**-picking, but I'll never share them with you!

* "When I was a young kitten, I lived for the festival games.
