Hear Kitty plays soothing and distinct orchestral sounds as you gain and spend your combat resources. It's like having your own theme music! You'll hear tones as you gain combo points or stacks of your buffs, and when you hear the final note played, you'll know it's time for a finishing move. Never watch for little red dots or buff stacks again!
These classes and specs work with Hear Kitty:
- Druids (in cat form): combo points (including in Classic)
- Rogues: combo points (including in Classic)
- Elemental and Enhancement shamans: maelstrom
- Paladins: holy power
- Shadow priests: insanity
- Warlocks: soul shards
- Monks: chi
- Arcane mages: arcane charges
- Frost mages with Glacial Spike: icicles
- Vehicles with combo points (such as the drakes in Eye of Eternity)

Hello! First of all, thank you for this addon, I had used it a lot in the past but stopped playing combo point classes. I have a question/sanity check request. Didn't this addon used to play a tone when you were maxed but you used a point generator anyway? Like if I had 5 combo points and kept spamming my generator, I thought it would keep playing the 5-point tone, which was a nice reminder I was wasting my generator. Has this been changed, or am I just remembering incorrectly?
In reply to eightflat:
Hi! I'm afraid that you're remembering incorrectly. (That's always been something that I wanted to provide, but there has never been a straightforward way to accomplish that with what the game provides.) I could definitely get a lot of value out of such a feature myself though. 🙂
In reply to TravisSpomer:
Aha, amazing how convinced I was. Thanks for the reply, cheers!
In reply to eightflat:
Mandela effect, maybe? I still remember a 90s movie called Shazaam starring Sinbad that never existed.
Hi Travis,
Just downloaded this addon for my feral druid. Big fan of the sounds but I was wondering if there is any way to turn off the sound cue for respawning? I'd prefer to not have it on.
Thank you very much
In reply to Koloss_0:
Hi! Thanks for the comments. Respawning as in being revived by a Spirit Healer? Are you playing on BfA or Classic? Hear Kitty plays sounds when the game tells it that your combo points have changed, and sometimes that happens at weird times—this is probably one of those times. But I can look into it and see what I can do!
In reply to TravisSpomer:
Hey thanks for the super quick reply!
I play classic wow and it's just been happening with regular spawning. Just tested with spirit healer and it doesn't make the noise.
In reply to Koloss_0:
Okay, just when reviving at your corpse? Is it the "bum-bum-BUM"/finisher sound that you're hearing when you revive?
In reply to TravisSpomer:
Yea thats the one
In reply to Koloss_0:
Okay, thanks for the info! My guess is that the game is that reviving at your corpse causes your combo points on your previous target to be reset to zero. Maybe the best solution would be to just make it so that Hear Kitty stays silent whenever you're not in combat—I've been thinking that would be better in a variety of situations anyway. (It'd be especially nice in BfA for ret pallies and monks, whose combo-point-like resources decay pretty quickly when not fighting, so you hear drums play at strange times in those specs too.) I filed a bug on myself to add that option and added your notes. Thanks again!

In reply to jshank:
Hi—it looks like one of your other addons is doing something that it shouldn't and it's interfering with Hear Kitty. It should be easy to work around though; I'll release an update today that should hopefully be able to detect that problem and deal with it. Give Hear Kitty 1.9.1 a try.
In reply to TravisSpomer:
No error on startup now, thanks!
In reply to jshank:
Great; thanks for confirming!
hi! if it possible, add please an option to dissable finishing sound. (for classic)
In reply to b0tanics:
Hello! Can you tell me exactly how this would work, and a little bit about what this would be used for? (For example, is it the fifth tone that you'd want to remove, or the drums for when you go back to 0 combo points?) I'm guessing it's for a rogue talent, and I never played a rogue way-back-when so I'm not super familiar. I think I remember that someone wanted an option to make the fourth combo point sound like the fifth, but it's been a long time and I've forgotten the details. :)
In reply to TravisSpomer:
ty for reply.
I meant the sound when combo go back to 0 points (drums).
Becouse when i do a lot of finishing moves that becomes to be slighltly annoing when it drums for each (playing rogue). Especialy if u want to get rid of every unwanted sounds :)
For exemple, for me is enoght just to hear just only 5 combo sound (it works good), but there is no an option to dissable finishing move sound (5 > 0 combo).
In reply to b0tanics:
Got it; thanks for the info! I added it to my to-do list—can't promise when I'd get to it, but it's there. :) In the meantime, you can hack it by finding this file and deleting it:
World of Warcraft\_retail_\Interface\AddOns\HearKitty\Symphony\0.ogg
You'll need to do that every time you update Hear Kitty, but I don't need to release Hear Kitty versions too often so hopefully that's not too much trouble. :)
Any chance you could upload this to Twitch? I keep trying to install it, but all the button does is open my Twitch app.
In reply to komododragoon87:
Hi! The addons here are what show up in the Twitch app; Twitch owns this site. If something appears to be going wrong with the installation your best bet would be to contact Twitch App Support.
