Cat Form is a shapeshiftdruid ability learned at level 8. Similar to a Rogue, it relies on an energy bar and combo points to use most of its skills. Druids in Cat Form also gain the ability to Track Humanoids, making a cloaked Cat Form druid perfect for PvP ambushes.
Cat Form uses Energy instead of Mana and can stealth, like a Rogue.
Blizzard has redesigned the Cat and Bear forms, which were released with Patch 3.2.0. There are now 5 different fur colors, designated by your hair color.
Tips and tactics
A druid in Cat Form can use both stealth and Track Humanoids to ambush people in PvP. By default, if you have no profession tracking on, when you shift into Cat Form, Track Humanoids is automatically activated once you have learned it.
Patch 6.0.2 (14-October-2014): Cat Form now increases movement speed by 30% (up from 25%).
Patch 5.0.5 (11 September 2012): The 25% speed increase granted by Cat Form should no longer stack with the speed increase of Dash.
Patch 4.0.6 (8-Feb-2011): Entering or leaving a shapeshift no longer cancels root effects. It continues to cancel movement slowing effects.; Druid forms now have an Archaeology Survey animation.
