The Purr-fect Superheroes
1. Catwoman: Feline Femme Fatale

Who can forget Selina Kyle? Batman’s sometimes foe, sometimes flame. With her whip and sleek suit, she’s stolen more than just jewels.

Not to be confused with Catwoman! Felicia Hardy swings around the Marvel universe. Luck’s on her side, but trouble’s always tailing her.
3. Streaky the Supercat: Kryptonian Kitty

Superman’s pet? Yep, he’s got one! Streaky’s a cat with Kryptonian powers. Think about it. A flying cat? That’s just awesome!
4. Hellcat: Mystic Marvel Mouser

Patsy Walker dons a suit that grants psychic abilities. From sensing danger to crossing dimensions, she’s the cat’s meow!
5. Lion-Mane: DC’s Ferocious Feline

Not all cat characters are good. Lion-Mane’s a villain in the DC universe. Watch out for those claws!
