Witcher Season 3 Ep 3
Watching the witcher season 3 long enough after it aired that such posts should probably be safe? The most burning question (hurr hurr) so far is what did Rience do with the cat? Are they friends? He seems like a cat chap. Would Stregobor let him keep a cat? The cat is presumably house broken (and maybe magical -- cats are magic iirc in the witcher world). What would he name the cat -- did the cat have a name? I don't think the cat did. Does Aretuza permit cats? Cat mascot?
Regardless -- it is a good cat and I hope it is happy at Aretuza.
It reminds me on season 1's assassins bug that Yenn sliced up.

It goes like this:
Early in life Jaskier has learned to always keep a couple of party tricks up his sleeve and to only reveal them when absolutely necessary.
Geralt leaves him behind on top of a mountain, surrounded by dwarves. Jaskier, if he wants to, can be an extremely petty person. He wants to.
He waits for the right opportunity.
Eventually he comes across another witcher. Older than any he has met before, with shoulder-long graying hair and a presence around him that speaks of authority and leadership.
Jaskier instinctively knows it must be Vesemir. So when the witcher leaves his horse outside a tavern Jaskier does the only thing that's reasonable in a situation like this.
When the witcher returns a fuzzy, brown tabby cat lies ontop his horses saddle. Like all cats do, it hisses at his approach but unlike most cats it doesn't run when he continues towards it. It swats at him instead, tiny claws leaving scratches in his leather gloves.
Very few people know this, but he's always had a soft spot for cats. Kind of ironic given his school's crest and the fact that all cats hate witchers, but there's just something about the little furballs that warms his heart.
So he leads his horse out of town by the reigns, thinking the cat will surely jump off once they're too far from its home.
It doesn't. The cat is apparently very comfortable ontop of his saddle. It's been days. The tabby cat still hisses at him when he's too close. But somehow it always manages to tag along. Riding on his horse's saddle, it's bags, one time it even falls asleep between his horse's ears.
Jaskier thinks himself very clever. Sneaking a ride with Vesemir until the witcher eventually meets up with Geralt so Jaskier can reveal himself and yell at him for being such a big dick.
Jaskier realizes he's fucked up.
Jaskier realizes he's fucked up when they reach a caravan of witchers and his travel companion is greeted with a happy "Guxart!"

In The Witcher, I'm pretty sure it`s implied that Cats are post-conjunction creatures. Apart from dragons, cats are the only creatures known to absorb magical energy, They are also instantly able to recognize witchers and exhibit an obvious disdain for them, they can also see through invisibility.
Also this bit that made me laugh from the wiki

School of the Cat -AKA: the one that includes almost all of my favorite fanon-fleshed-them-out Witcher maniacs!
(Thankful credit is due to the many fanauthors and fanartists whose depictions have influenced my personal mental concept of the Cats and to the face-claims suggested by various fans on the Accidental Warlord Discord, which also ended up heavily influencing how I envision them)

Yennefer helps Jaskier get reunited with his terrible cat at kaer morhen. Jaskier’s semi-feral cat only allows Jaskier to pet him but he will sit next to yennefer’s feet and does allow ciri to to play with him.
The witchers on the other hand live in terror of surprise ankle attacks
