Unnamed Cat Demon

The Cat Demon was a Yōkai that was sealed under a temple by a Monk (Priest in the anime) 100 years prior to the start of the story. Many years later, a Nun came upon the temple and intended to exorcise the demon and renew the seal on the cat demon's remains; however, she failed and the cat demon was reawakened. The Cat demoness took control of the Nun, and used her to lure unsuspecting travelers to the temple in order to devour them. When Inuyasha and his group stumble upon the temple, they eventually defeat the cat demon with the help of Inuyasha's newly acquired Dragon-Scaled Tessaiga.
