the rules don't say cat's can't play!

Yeah, but that one doesn't have the right gear on. Section 4 of the laws of the game say:

3(a) For ease of identification, players’ clothing must have the numbers 1 to 13 with additional numbers for the substitutes.

4(b) A player’s normal gear shall consist of a numbered jersey of distinctive colour and/or pattern, a pair of shorts, socks of a distinctive colour and/or pattern and studded boots or shoes.

4(f) Studs on boots or shoes shall not have sharp edges or pose a risk of injury to other players.

If there's one thing I know about cats, it's that their booties have sharp edges that pose a risk of injury. That cat is going to get a red card as soon as it enters the playing field. Only language some players understand.

Look, I know rules are rules, but look at that face. That purrmuffin would never ever claw another player.

(not unless they had it coming.)
