He is a large cat | '''Nago''' is one of [[Kirby|Kirby's]] [[Animal Friend]]s, debuting in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 3]]'', which remains his only major game appearance to date. He is a large cat with a similar body shape as [[Rick]], but with a pair of short legs instead of the hamster's big, round feet. His feet are not normally visible unless he is moving. Although his fur is mostly white, he possesses orange and brown markings on the top of his head and on his back, as well as brown ears and a stubby, orange tail. This gives him a resemblance to a [[wikipedia:Japanese Bobtail|Japanese Bobtail]] with a [[wikipedia:Calico cat|calico]] coat, though calicos are primarily female. | ||

In ''Kirby's Dream Land 3'', Nago is one of the first Animal Friends to be seen, appearing in the first stage of [[Grass Land (Kirby's Dream Land 3)|Grass Land]] next to Rick. He is also seen in the [[Cloudy Park (Kirby's Dream Land 3)|Cloudy Park]] intro, where he plays with Kirby until leaving him behind in favor of [[Pitch]], and the [[Iceberg (Kirby's Dream Land 3)|Iceberg]] intro, where he assists Kirby and [[ChuChu]] in building a snowman. | |||
When Kirby and Nago are traveling together, the pink hero assumes the shape of a [[ball]] while the cat holds him in his paws, rolling him around. Apart from being able to defeat most enemies by jumping on them, he may perform double or even triple jumps if the B button is pressed while he is falling, allowing him to make higher and longer leaps. | When Kirby and Nago are traveling together, the pink hero assumes the shape of a [[ball]] while the cat holds him in his paws, rolling him around.

Nago makes a cameo appearance | Nago makes a cameo appearance ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards|The Crystal Shards]]'', although he himself is never seen. Instead, by using the [[Stone-Cutter]] ability combo, Kirby may transform into a moving statue of any of his Animal Friends from ''Kirby's Dream Land 3'', including Nago. While in this form, he is very slow, but may execute double and triple jumps like Nago does in his original appearance, as well as crush most enemies he touches as with the regular [[Stone]] ability. | ||
