Socat (stylized as SoCAT!) was an early online social network that operated from 2024 to 2025, designed exclusively for Cats and their owners. It provided a platform for users to create profiles for their feline companions, share photos and videos, and connect with other cat enthusiasts. It also featured a dedicated Themes page, offering daily and monthly events or new styles, including special initiatives like an LGBT event. The service aimed to build a community around Pet Ownership, allowing "cat profiles" to interact, "paw-shake" (a common social networking metaphor), and share updates on their daily lives. Socat also supported BBCode for formatting user-generated content, allowing for rich text posts within profiles and shared updates.
