Stray Cat

Stray Cat is a Stand/user hybrid appearing in Diamond Is Unbreakable after dying and being brought back to life when its Stand activated. It is also referred to as "Catweed" and was given its name by Yoshikage Kira.

Appearance and Personality
Stray Cat is a Stand bound to a plant shown having a thick stem for body and big leaves that operate like arms. Two petals are wrapped into a feline shape for the face. The personality is the same as any normal cat as the Stand is a reincarnation of the actual user. Its facial design has changed shape when it is re-introduced in Chapter 423, possibly due to its growth as a plant. It acts as the reincarnation of its user former Tama, and retains its personality.

Synopsis
Stray Cat is the Stand of Tama, activating after its user's death. Wanting revenge for its death, Stray Cat attacks Shinobu Kawajiri, and Yoshikage Kira after seeing him trying to protect its killer. After almost killing Kira it is distracted by a golf ball and starts playing with it, which allows Kira to keep him under control for a while. Kira eventually decides to hide Stray Cat in the house, deciding it could be useful in the future. There it is found by Hayato Kawajiri, who also is attacked by the Stand but manages to escape.

Stray Cat eventually allies itself with Kira and is subsequently referred to by its Stand's name. After the effects of Bites the Dust are deactivated, Kira puts Stray Cat in the gap in Killer Queen's stomach and combines its abilities with his Stand's in order to create bombs from the balls of air manipulated by Stray Cat. After Kira is defeated and dies, Stray Cat goes to live with Okuyasu's father, and is shown to get along well with its new owner.

Ability
Aerokinesis: Stray Cat has the ability to manipulate air, capable of creating air bubbles strong enough to hold a person against a wall or enter their veins, blocking blood passage. This is due to its photosynthesis from being a plant; the stronger the light, the stronger the control Stray Cat has over the air. In direct illumination it is quite powerful, but conversely is weak at night. When completely without light, the Stand along with the user will enter a dormant state and can be easily subdued. It later gets carried in Killer Queen's stomach, attacking with air bubbles charged to explode.

Trivia

 * According to JOJOVELLER, Araki states he based Stray Cat/Tama off of his grandfather's cat named Chako. As a child, they both doted on it but Chako scratched Araki when he ignored it one day. As a result, he's always been suspicious of cats ever since.
