Summary
A dedicatedFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirthfan recently spent over 130 hours crafting an impressively detailed plush doll of the quirky party member Cait Sith.Final Fantasy 7has one of the most memorable casts in the history of the franchise, from beloved heroes like Cloud and Tifa to the nefarious archvillain Sephiroth. One of the most unusual members of theFinal Fantasy 7crew is Cait Sith, who recently made his return in this year’sFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
Inspired by the mythical “cat-sith” of Celtic lore, Cait Sith is a cartoon-like robotic cat that rides a giant stuffed Moogle doll into battle in theFinal Fantasy 7games. Following a brief cameo at the end ofFinal Fantasy 7 Remake, the party first meets Cait Sith atthe Gold Saucer amusement park, where he works as a fortune-teller before joining them on their quest to find the ancient Black Materia. Unbeknownst to Cloud and the others, Cait Sith is at least partly controlled by Reeve Tuesti, a high-ranking member of Shinra who eventually grows to support Avalanche’s efforts to save the planet in earnest.
A few days ago, a Reddit user by the handle of LKLarkin shared their highly detailed homemade plush ofFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s Cait Sithon r/FinalFantasyVII. This stunning recreation of the luck-empowered cat robot sits at about 1.5-2 feet tall and took over 130 hours to put together. LKLarkin says that they had been wanting a Cait Sith plush ever sinceFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirth, but wasn’t satisfied with any of the official ones being offered up online. So, they crocheted Cait Sith’s body using their own pattern, sowed his white fur by hand (which took roughly 14 hours), and stitched his cape with a sewing machine.

The real Cait Sith will return in thethirdFinal Fantasy 7 Remaketitle, which will pick up whereFF7 Rebirthleft off and go through the remainder of the originalFF7storyline. Some players are hoping that the next installment will flesh out Cait Sith’s origins and clarify how the animatronic feline is controlled. The game could also dive into Reeve’s character, showing the extent of his command over Cait Sith and how his own change of heart influences the cat’s choice to fight alongside Cloud and the others in their final battle with Sephiroth.
While fans wait to see howtheFinal Fantasy 7 Remakesaga concludes, talented players like LKLarkin are showing their appreciation for the series so far with impressive works like their homemade Cait Sith plush. While this version ofFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s leading feline might not come to life or grant its owner luck-based status buffs, it has an impressive likeness that highlights how much time and effort went into making it.
