Decadent_Otter's Cali Cat Database for filament ratings. My current plan is to compile a full rating here here with 1 to 2 pictures of the filament and printed cat and a link to @Cali_CATalog on Twitter. Thing number on Thingiverse: 1545913 I always print my model at 150% scale. I always appreciate the help. If anyone has their own cats they want to print and contribute to the page go ahead and add them. I'm always on Discord if you want me to add it or have any questions or suggestion. Please feel free to reach out. I don't bite... much.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mad Maker | PLA+ | Coal Black |
|
The Mad Maker PLA+ seems to be some pretty good quality filament for a good price. It printed a lot like standard PLA. The only thing I would recommend a bed temp of at 70 C, I got some warping around the feet when I printed at the standard 60 C. |

| Richoose | PLA | Rainbow |
|
This filament looks really cool, but it takes a lot of work to get it print.
It jammed several times trying to print and if the nozzle dropped below 215 at any point it would jam. I had to print a 3 by 3 grid to get it to fully transition. |

| Prusament | PLA | Opal Green |
|
Really cool Prusament filament. The got a bit messed up, but nothing too crazy. | 4 out 5 | ||
| Sunlu | TPU/Flex | Green |
|
Fairly easy to print but definitely stringy. | 3 out 5 | Amazon | |
| Treed | Heritage Brick | Brick... |
|
This was a weird filament. It was very brittle and difficult to print.
I accidentally broke the head off and glued it back on. |

| Toner Plastics | ASA | Black |
|
Not the easiest filament to print. You definitely need an enclosure to print this. | 2 out 5 | Link | |
| Push Plasic | PC+PBT | Orange |
|
It's a pretty cool looking filament, but is kind of hard to print. Some of the layers split as well. | 2.5 out 5 | Push Plastic | |
| Snolabs | PLA+ | Black Amethyst |
|
Some really great filament. Good colors too. | 5 out 5 | Snolabs | |
| RePlay 3D | Recycled PLA | Black |
|
Nice filament, no problems printing it. The filament itself is recycled filament which is cool. | 5 out 5 | Replay 3D | |
| ColorFabb | LW-PLA | Natural |
|
Easy Filament to print and nice clear color. It is pretty light, but I don't understand the expanding effect that it's supposed to have. | 3 out 5 | Colorfabb | |
| Proto-Pasta | HPTLA | Chelsey's Powder Puff Unicorn |
|
This is a special filament made by ProtoPasta. It was not too bad to print, but it did jam occasionally because of my heatbreak. | 3 out 5 | Proto-pasta | |
| Filoalfa | Alfasilk | Green Taffeta |
|
Printed exactly like PLA. This was a cool filament to print with and very easy to use. | 4 out 5 | Link | |
| Protopasta | Carbon Fiber HTPLA | Dark Gray |
|
This filament printed alright. It jammed a few times, but not terrible. It didn't seem like it had much carbon fiber in it. | 4 out 5 | Link | |
| Not Sure | Not Sure | Black |
|
I don't know which filament this is. I will probably figure it out later by process of elimination. | X out 5 | Link | |
