The two-tailed demon cat is a fire-breathing, flaming cat from the Land of Lightning. Its host is Yugito of Kumogakure, who was captured by the Akatsuki members Hidan and Kakuzu shortly after her introduction. Despite luring her two pursuers into a closed space, sealing the exits, and transforming herself into the demon cat, Yugito was overpowered and rendered unconscious (as well as pinned to a wall by a kunai through her hands) by the two Akatsuki members. Zetsu later arrives to take her off their hands. In chapter 331, Akatsuki begins extracting the beast from Yugito, and finishes in chapter 332, resulting in her death.
