Non-essential Skyrim Special Edition Mods You'll be able to care for your cat, purchase beds and collars, and take it with you on adventures as a follower. You'll not only begin to encounter them more often as you enter settlements, but can get a cat of your own either by earning a stray cat's trust or by purchasing one from the two new cat stores that the mod also introduces. A Cat's Life is a Skyrim Special Edition mod that drastically increases the cat population in the game's towns and villages.
