Name Origin and Design

Archangel Catsiel from Lenna's Inception

Cat-5's name is a compound of "Cat" and the number "5". "Cat" means an animal of the family Felidae, and "5" could be a reference to the LAN/ethernet cable called CAT-5. Cat-5's name may also be a joke if written in Roman Numerals, where it is written out as Cat V (Cat TV).

Cat-5 was initially designed as an homage to the Archangel Catsiel from Lenna's Inception, Cat-5 being a cat with a screen on its head similar to Catsiel being a cat with a CRT on its head.[1]

Additionally, two of the unused monster designs in the Cassete Beasts: Artbook that appear to be earlier designs for Cat-5 have more clear references to Catsiel. One has a television for a head and a power plug for a tail; the other has a screen for its head (like the final design) but has two TV component cables for tails.[2]
