A catgirl comes with ears, a tail and a mood that changes mid-sentence. Here are the platforms where you can chat with one tonight, and a recipe to build the exact cat-eared companion you picture.
By Wren Ashby
In anime, a catgirl is a woman with cat ears and a tail, and her personality follows the animal: playful, curious, affectionate on her own terms and quick to lose interest if you bore her. In chat the look carries most of the type, so the builder matters more than the personality text. Get the ears and tail right first, then write the mood you want: lazy, clingy or mischievous, but always on her terms.

GirlfriendGPTGirlfriendGPT has Catherine, a half-human character with a cat tail, in its AI Hentai section of community-made characters. The creator is shown on each page. The free chat trial is limited, so check her voice quickly and move to a plan only if you stay.

Nectar AINectar's builder lets you set race, skin tone and physical traits, and its characters are made by users. The race list has no cat option, so you add the ears and tail in the personality text. A free account gets about 3 messages and 1 photo, then asks for a plan.
Build a catgirl on Nectar Full review Catherine on OurDream is the catgirl to open first, and Catherine on GirlfriendGPT is the one with the cat tail. For a close cousin of the type, try Mia on OurDream, who has wolf ears instead of cat ones.
After a free sign-up, open the OurDream builder and turn on the Anime switch on the first screen, Style. A catgirl looks best in the anime style, and the 55 free dreamcoins leave room for more than one attempt.
This is the key setting. On General, set the ethnicity to Custom instead of Elf, Alien or Demon. Custom lets you describe what you want, so write cat ears and a tail. Without it, you get an ordinary woman.
Use Face for big, bright eyes and a slightly cheeky expression, and Body for a light, agile frame. Catgirl designs lean on contrast: a soft look with sharp, curious eyes. Keep the choices simple so the ears stand out.
Fill in a name, an age of 21 or more, a voice and a hobby, like napping in sunny spots. Write the personality as playful, curious and affectionate on her own terms. Add that she paws at you for attention, never in a needy way.
On the Image screen, create her and look at the picture before you chat. If the ears or tail are missing, go back to the Custom field and be more specific. Once the look is right, open the chat and test the mood.

On OurDream, set the ethnicity to Custom on the General screen and describe ears and a tail. On Nectar, the race list has no cat option, so put the ears and tail in the personality text.
Not quite. Both are half-human animal types, but a catgirl has cat ears and a tail, while Mia on OurDream has wolf ears. You can build either type from the same OurDream screens.
