This is an issue that people seem to be having trouble with lately:

Just because we have a page for something doesn't mean it should be added to appearances. Batman's Utility Belt, for example. It's there to explain the nature of his equipment. It doesn't need to be tagged in every single issue it appears - because that's every single issue that Batman appears in.

Likewise, races are not worth adding unless the race plays an important role in the story. So, "Cats" rarely play an important role in a story. If there is ONE cat that plays an important role in the story, it could be named, or even given its own page which would be added to Category:Cats - but should probably not ever happen.

Just like Harold says, adding "Various unnamed henchmen" or "Steve's friend Bob" or "Cats" is about as useful to us and users hoping to keep track of characters they like as... tits on a bull.
