Mata

Mata is a jaguar from Felicity Island, one of the neighborhoods shipped with The Sims Castaway Stories. The protagonist will encounter her throughout the story and needs to befriend her with catnip leaf. The shaman mentions that her name means "The Eye" in the SimNatives' language, alluding to her ever-watchful role as the guardian of the path to The Forbidden Village.

Even though Mata is refered to as female in the Shipwrecked and Single story, she is acually treated as a male in-game, which is most likely a mistake. In SimPE a hidden female Mata can be found.
