[[File:neko clap.png|200px|right]]The player's main job is to clap in to the rhythm allocated by the first two cats by clapping with them, or if necessary, when two mice appear in the background instead of two cats during the gameplay. If they are about to spin, they must spin along with the other two and release at the right time. If they notice a fish from above, you need to quickly catch it before the other two do. Each one of the cues have different timings.

==[[Timing Display]]==
*'''Perfect!/Ace!''': The cat will clap, spin, or catch the fish swiftly.
{{Timing
*'''Early!/Late!''': The cat will clap, but he will have his tongue out with crossed eyes. If looking at the user, it makes a frightened expression.
|just=The player claps, spins, poses, and catches the fish properly.
*'''Miss...''': The other cats grab the fish. The cat spins on the ground, dizzy, like a failed combo in [[Karate Man Combos!]]. When clapping cat is either on the ground making a barely face or just makes that face.
|miss=The player claps off the beat with crossed eyes.
|through=The player does nothing. If they try to clap out of line, they fall back with crossed eyes. If they try to spin out of line or miss the pose, the player spins out on the ground with a dizzy expression. If they fail to grab the fish, the other kitties jump as the player's falls over with a big exclamation mark.}}
