''War of the Whiskers'' is a second attempt at a ''Tom and Jerry''-based fighting game, acting as a sort-of sequel to ''Tom and Jerry in Fists of Furry'' (also developed by [=VIS=] Entertainment and published by [=NewKidCo=]), which was released in the year 2000 for the Nintendo 64 and PC.

Several elements from ''Fists of Furry'' make a return in ''War of the Whiskers'' (such as the ''VideoGame/PowerStone''-esque gameplay, the complete cast of playable characters from ''Fists of Furry'' and their respective mugshots and {{Palette Swap}}s, nearly all Power-ups, a Single Player arcade mode with the final stage (usually) being a laboratory, [[OverlyLongGag a kitchen stage, a cruise ship stage, etc.]]), but it also comes with a fair share of new ideas and improvements: the arcade mode (renamed Challenge) has been condensed so each stage only has one match, and features revamped bosses (which can actually be unlocked as playable characters for the Multiplayer mode), two more additional playable characters, a couple of Multiplayer-only stages and character costumes, four-player Multiplayer, and [[UnstoppableRage Berserk Mode]], a revamp of the Double Damage power-up that is now a LimitBreak that can be built up during the fight, and unleashed once its bar is full.

Just like in ''Fists of Furry'', ''War of the Whiskers'' also features a soundtrack completely made of jazz-style music, reminiscent of the classic ''Tom and Jerry'' shorts.

While every other playable character has punch and kick jab combos, a GroundPound and the ability to pick up and throw items and other characters, Robot Cat completely lacks the latter three abilities and only has a single jab combo. In exchange, it has completely unique attacks only it can use: it can shoot fireballs from far away and set opponents [[RumpRoast running away on fire]] with a rotating flamethrower attack at close range. Its [[TurnsRed Berserk Mode]] is also completely different from everyone else; while most characters gain an attack/speed boost for the mode's duration on top of becoming invincible, Robot Cat instead flies into the air and can shoot fireballs with no cooldown instead (though it still retains invincibility).
