How to Find Cat in The Forge: Tomo's Quest Guide

You loaded into The Forge to craft god-tier weapons, not to play hide-and-seek with a digital pet. But here you are. You ran into Tomo near the spawn, he’s crying about his missing feline, and now you have a quest marker stuck in your log.

The problem? The map in The Forge is vertical, cluttered, and full of hiding spots.

If you are running in circles shouting "Pspsps" at your screen, stop. You aren't blind; the cat is just hidden behind some annoying geometry. This guide covers exactly how to find cat in the forge, navigating the parkour, and why you should bother finishing this side quest in the first place.

The Quest Start: Who is Tomo?

Before you go hunting, make sure you actually triggered the quest.

Location: Tomo hangs out right near the initial spawn area (Stonewake).
The NPC: He looks distressed. Interact with him, and he will tell you his cat ran off.
The Clue: He usually mentions something vague about "heights" or "water," which is helpful... but also applies to half the map.

Step-by-Step: How to Find Cat in The Forge

Okay, let’s get to the point. You want to know how to find cat in the forge without watching a 10-minute video intro.

The cat is located near the Waterfall.

1. Head to the Waterfall

From the spawn point where you talk to Tomo, look for the massive waterfall. It’s the most obvious landmark in the starting zone. If you are facing the wilderness, it should be towards the left or center-left depending on your camera angle.

2. The Parkour Section (The Annoying Part)

This is where Roblox physics might test your patience.

Approach the base of the waterfall.
Look for rocky ledges protruding from the cliffside next to the water.
You need to jump up these ledges. Be careful—The Forge isn't a platformer, so your character might slide off if you don't land squarely.

3. Spotting the Cat

As you ascend the ledges, keep your camera swivelled. You aren't going to the very top of the mountain. You are looking for a small, flat plateau or a hidden nook about halfway up the waterfall's side.

The Visual: The cat is small and often blends in with the grey stone textures. Look for a small, non-moving model.
Interaction: Once you spot it, jump over to its ledge. Hold the interact key (usually 'E') to "Grab" or "Rescue" the cat.

Note: Map updates happen. If the devs moved the terrain, the logic remains the same: Look for verticality near water sources. That is the core secret of how to find cat in the forge.

Why Can't I Find It? (Common Issues)

We see players asking how to find cat in the forge constantly because of render distances and lighting.

It's Dark: If it's night time in-game, the cat is nearly invisible against the rocks. Wait for day cycle or turn up your brightness.
Render Distance: If you are playing on a potato phone, the cat might not render until you are standing right on top of it. Trust the pathing, climb the waterfall rocks, and it will pop in.

Rewards: Is It Worth It?

You might be asking, "I came here to smith swords, why am I saving cats?"

Completing Tomo's quest is crucial for the early game economy.

Reputation/XP: It gives you a nice bump to get you out of level 1.
Unlocks: Often, these fetch quests unlock merchant discounts or trading options later on.
The "Completionist" Itch: You can't truly say you mastered the game if you left Tomo crying at spawn.

Conclusion

Knowing how to find cat in the forge is less about skill and more about knowing where to look. It’s a rite of passage for every new player. Once you return that cat to Tomo, you can get back to what really matters: mining Copper, smelting Iron, and calculating your way to a Mythical weapon.

Speaking of Mythical weapons, once you are done playing pet detective, you'll need to get back to crafting. Don't waste your quest rewards on bad recipes.
