Congrats! You're one step further along in your DF playing :) legendary miner is generally the first, now to get some more!

Wait, legendary cat? Not sure how useful that'll be for you... Guess it can catch the climbing vermin now too :p

The important question is though ... can we weaponize it?

Some creatures now have natural climbing skills. Cats are one of them.

As for weaponizing them? Pasture some near trees, and build deep pits around the trees. Make sure there are still walkways for your dwarves to use, but try to keep them narrow. When invaders come, they will chase the cats. As the cats are near trees, they may try to flee by climbing. Their natural skill will help them stay ahead of the invaders, and lower their chances of falling. As the invaders likely have little skill, they will be more likely to lose their grip and fall to their doom. And if a cat accidentally falls into a pit, it would not be a major loss.

Though they would have to be large trees, to give the cat room to run.
