35. Lite

Lite is a female ocelot, a member of the Tangles, and a former resident of the Badlands. She has bright orange fur, black paws, outlined ears, tipped tail, and markings on her body, white underbelly, chest, and neck, pink inner ears, and bright blue eyes.


Lite first appears in episode "Awesome Lot". She is first seen by Moonblink running from the Badlands into the Borderlands. Thinking she was a jaguar and a member of Rhanaa's leap, Moonblink warns the Skyhawks. Later, Baron startles Lite while she's slumbering in a mangrove tree, causing the cat to slap him away, leading to a skirmish with the young group. The Storm Hawks and Talon Resistance come to assist but the young ocelot defeats them all with ease. The Night pride arrive and Kion angrily uses his roar on Lite after seeing her threaten Aasira who is pinned under a tree branch. Having anchored herself to the ground with her claws, Lite is unaffected by the roar but runs away in terror. Later, Kion, Aasira, and their friends travel to the Badlands to apologize to Lite but are attacked by her clowder of big cats. Before Kion can roar at them, Lite stops the ruckus. The groups manage to befriend each other after the misunderstandings are cleared up. 


Lite states she came from a loving family but was forced to go out on her own to achieve independence and adulthood. She is strong, fast, and extremely agile. She is also a critical thinker and is quick to come up with a solution when in a sticky situation. She is sassy, cocky, and somewhat rude. However, she is also humorous, affable, and a great singer.
