Traits

Nondetection. The cat cannot be targeted or detected by any divination magic or perceived through magical scrying sensors.  Their fur is a natural camouflage and blends in with the cliff rocks.

Spell Turning. The cat has advantage on saving throws against any spell that targets only the cat (not an area). If the cat's saving throw succeeds and the spell is of 7th level or lower, the spell has no effect on the cat and instead targets the caster.

Glide. When the cat flies, it cannot ascend on its own, and descends 1 foot for every 5 feet it travels (5 feet for every 25 feet). The Cliff cat has learned to see currents of air and uses this to find updrafts to continue flying as long as there is wind.

 Fear Fighter. The cat never fights to kill, only escape. All damage it does is nonlethal unless if it thinks it can't escape (I.E., against a creature larger or faster than it, typically not the tiny humanoids of a normal party). The cat has disadvantage on saving throws against spells and effects that cause it to become Frightened. If Frightened, its damage will become lethal until it isn't Frightened anymore.

Multiattack. The cat uses it Nibble and Swipe attack at the same time, to the same target. It only does this if it doesn't think it can escape or is defending something.

Actions

Flying Pounce. If the cat is flying toward a creature then hits it with a swipe attack on the same turn, that target must succeed on a DC13 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.

Nibble. Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d12 + 2) piercing damage. They won't do this unless they are attacking. A creature hit by this attack is grappled (Escape DC 14).

Swipe. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 4 slashing damage. The squirrel slashes at you with its claws.

Reactions

Flighty. The cat moves up to its movement speed (or flying speed if high enough up that it can use it). It can do this in response to being attacked but occurs after damage and doesn't provoke opportunity attacks.

 Expert Fall. The cat reduces fall damage it takes to 0.

Description

This cat resembles a long lynx.  Its fur is a natural camouflage and blends in with the cliff rocks.  The cat can leap off of the cliff, stretch out their legs, spreading the fold of skin between the front and hind legs, to form a kind of parachute that lets them glide.  They are able to perceive air currents and uses this to find updrafts to continue to glide as long as there is the slightest breeze.
