According to the press kit from Virgin Records's media information, Skat Kat is a "street philosopher with an alley Kat point of view". He enjoys rapping and dancing, has "got an eye for the ladies", and "remains on the smooth tip with an old school rap influence which adds the street to his new school hip hop".

Physical appearance
Skat Kat has brown fur, a black flat-top, and a small, square goatee. He wears a white tank top, blue, baggy pants with black suspenders and yellow buttons, and big tennis shoes. He sported an earring on his left ear, as shown in Skat Strut.
