Appearances
VRCat's first appearance was Introducing VRChat Plus and has been seen in numerous official VRChat announcements and social media posts since.
VRCat appears as the Early Supporter Badge for users who bought VRChat+ when it was first released. The badge can be pet on a user's profile on the website.
After purchasing VRChat+, VRCat will appear on the user's Quick Menu. Clicking VRCat in this menu multiple times will cause dialogue to appear.

Trivia
- VRCat's name is a play on VRChat.
- VRCat was inspired by the cat of VRChat's Head of Community Tupper, Trogdor.[1]
- VRCat's arch-enemy is VRRat.
- VRCat's Quick Menu dialogue has numerous grammatical errors and inconsistencies with capitalization, such as VRChat Udon being referred to as both "Udon" and "UDON"
- VRCat's dialogue has several references to pop culture and internet memes:
- Why do I hear boss music?: Reference to a Terraria meme featuring a player character saying "why do I hear boss music"[2]
- Sorry Dave, I can't do that right now: Reference to a line in 2001: A Space Odyessey
- Perfect Gem Activated: Reference to the "Chat Gem" in Diablo II[3]
- Zug zug: Reference to World of Warcraft's Orcish language, a form of acknowledgement and agreement[4]
- Reticulating Splines: Reference to several Maxis games, such as SimCity, SimCopter, The Sims up to Sims 4. Often showing up in loading screens.
- Downloading more RAM: Reference to a meme where an internet forum user asked "how to download more RAM," this is amusing as RAM is physical hardware that must be bought, and cannot be downloaded[5]
- VRCat.club (Archive.org link) was an unofficial forum for the VRChat community that predates VRCat and the current ask.vrchat.com forums.
