User Reviews
This extension is very cute and adds a breath of life to quite static and boring YouTube web page, I can think of only one issue - is there a way to disable bubbles that cats sometime float in? They obscure clip window and it's quite annoying to pop the bubble manually.
Edit: Never mind, found it - it's hidden as "Rare events" setting... so no issues whasover for me from now on :)

Is PixelCat Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
PixelCat requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
Risk impact analysis details
- Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
- Critical ******* ****** ** *** ********* ******** ************ *********** *****
- High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
PixelCat is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
Risk likelihood analysis details
- High This extension has low user count. Unpopular extensions may not be stable or safe.
- Medium **** ********* *** ******* ** *** **** * ******* *** ******* *** *** ** ****** ** *****
- Medium **** ********* *** ***** ** *** **** * ******* *** ********** *** *** ** ****** ** *****
