Cat Quest 3 Quest List

There are tons of short quests to complete in Cat Quest 3. This list contains all of them, their starting locations, and a bit about what they are like.

  • Patchy's Booty - Speak to Patchy outside of Booty Cave. Begin the quest by searching through the cave, then follow Patchy back through the cave and fight him to complete it. Start the quest by catching the catfish a short walk away. Afterward, complete the quest by finding and catching the Fursome Four.
  • The Furlorn Fishercat - Sail to Straits Island and speak to the fisherman at the top of it.
  • Lovepurr Chronicles - Enter the Lovepurr Castle on Lovepurr Island. Speak to Clawford, then find the three Lovepurr Chronicles books hidden in caves around the map. Bring them to Clawford and complete the tower to finish this quest.
  • The Golden Tower - Sail your ship through Purrvana's rivers and destroy the barricade in front of the Golden Tower to unlock this quest. Completing it will require you to find all three golden keys and defeat the boss of the tower.
  • Going Pawstal - Visit PostMutt Inc on the right side of Purrvana. Speak with the Postmutt to begin delivering letters for him. Each recipient will be clearly denoted and their location marked on the map, making it a pretty easy quest to follow.
  • The Monster Researcher - This quest is in Purrvana's lower right corner. Speak to the researcher and bring him the requested monsters to start the quest.
  • One Cat's Treasure - Get this quest from the Watchcat in the Strait's Watchtower on Purrvana. Find the items at all of the locations indicated by the Watchcat to complete the quest.

  • Lovepurr Chronicles: Book 2 can be found in Heartpurreak Cave on Twilight Isles.
  • Lovepurr Chronicles: Book 3 is located in Lovepurr's Cave on Lovepurr island.

How to fix the Lovepurr Chronicles

In Lovepurr Castle, you'll need to enter each book and choose the route the story will take place. For Lovepurr Chronicles Book 1, you can decide how you want Clawford to observe or intervene with Purrscilla for the first three parts of the book. However, when the Pi-Rats attack her he must join in and fight with her. Afterward, tell her she is "ameowzing" to successfully complete the chapter.

In Loverpurr Chronicles Book 2, you can freely decide how Clawford and Purrscilla fight until they meet the Raider's Captain. After asking who he is, have Clawford recognize him as his brother. At the end, pick the option where Clawford announces Purrscilla has changed him for the better and that he'll protect her to finish this chapter.

The third book of Lovepurr Chronicles requires Clawford to recognize his earlier mistakes against his brother. When the house is lit on fire, grab Purrscilla and escape. Next, call her my love and mention how happy you are to have escaped. When Snoutford shows up, tell him you've always regretted what happened the night of your family's fire. Afterward, say that he's the only family you have left. This final choice will complete the last Loverpurr Chronicles chapter.

As rewards, you'll receive several pieces of Clawford gear, the Heartbreaker shield, and the Heartmender shield. You'll also complete the Love is Furrever achievement.

How to get every Golden Key

Players need three Golden Keys to enter the Golden Tower.

  • The third golden key is found by catching the moving coin on Furtigua island.
  • The fourth golden key is obtained by following the moving golden coin on one of the left islands in the Sunset Islands.
  • The fifth golden key comes from a moving gold coin on the top left side of Furggy Island.
