Well, in japanese and chinese folklore there are a ton: Foxes, Tanukis, Weasels, Carps, Snakes, Cranes, Ducks, Spiders, Centipedes...

But KC has chosen to make all those into mamono species in their own right, rather than monsterized animals, and has turned british animal monsters (who weren't altered animals to begin with, more like fairyland creatures you can meet in the countryside) into altered animals...

Since both Cu Sith and Cait Sith are British, he could use the welsh Ceffyl Dŵr, a horse.

You know, it's scary how the folklore of feline soul-eating monster is identical in opposite sides of the world (Cait Sith in Scotland, Kasha in Japan)... the reputation of cats as soul eaters must be really ancient...
