Meowbomb

The Meowbomb appeared in 2007 video game called Super Paper Mario. A Meowbomb is a robotic cat-like enemy from Super Paper Mario. They simply walk around and detonate on contact, but they can also explode after a certain amount of time. They only appear in Chapter 3-4: The Battle of Fort Francis and Chapter 8-2: The Crash, as they were deployed in the player's battle(s) against Francis. Using his laptop, Francis could summon several Meowbombs to attack Mario and his allies. In Fort Francis, SurpriseMeows also shoot Meowbombs at the player. Ironically, the only way to defeat a SurpriseMeow was to use Thoreau's abilities in order to clog its cannon with Meowbombs.
