Jailcat

Dragon Quest monster Jailcat

File:Jailcat Art.png

First appearance Dragon Quest VIII

The jailcat is a monster that, while technically debuting in the earlier Dragon Quest VIII, was exclusive to the DS remake of Dragon Quest V, replacing the Great sabrecub. It's possible to recruit one shortly after obtaining the wagon in Fortuna; the jailcat is somewhat unique being one of the earliest sources of ice magic (which normally isn't available until much later), and can last until the third generation.

Trivia

The Great Sabrecub (which the Jailcat replaced) was probably removed because it may have been confusing to some players why the Hero is trying to help a Great sabrecub while other sabrecubs are attacking.
