Number
74
Kitties! (てってってパンパン Tettette Panpan) is the 74th minigame that has been introduced in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. In this game, the player controls a cat, who exists in a trio of cats, whose main job is to clap, spin, and go after a familiar-looking fish.
Gameplay
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.
Controls
- Ⓐ/Tap: Clap or aim for fish
- Ⓑ (Hold)/Tap (Hold): Spin
- Ⓑ (Release)/Tap (Release): Pose
Timing Notes
- Perfect!/Ace!: The cat will clap, spin, or catch the fish swiftly.
- 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.
- 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.

Fish Are for Clappers

|
You clap well, you get a fish. You clap poorly, you don't. If you're slow when we hand out the fish, you don't get any. We don't just pet every kitty that comes through here.

Trivia
- The tasty fish the cats catch resembles the Quicknibble from Catch of the Day.
- The fish is a loose reference to the "Bucket of Fish" drum fill that plays in those moments.
- This game has the shortest English description in the entire series.
- There is an unused alternate pose meant for spinning, which depicts the kitties sticking their butts out.
- Oddly, the mice that appear to replace two of the kitties still make cat noises when appearing.
