Cat's Paw

Cat's Paw magazine is a Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics item. It is part of two side-quests in Fallout 2.

Characteristics
In Fallout, the item has no use and description. Its only descriptions are "You have no idea" and "Upon further inspection, you still have no idea what this is."

In Fallout 2, if the Chosen One collects 10 magazines and brings them to Miss Kitty, they can receive a special Cat's Paw issue no.5 "that contains a very interesting article on energy weapons" in New Reno. Typhon in Broken Hills will also ask them to find an issue for him.
