Checking. Yep, you're right. I have a Bible Software program, and I can word and phrase search 12 Bible versions as fast as a teenager can google. The word cat is not in the Bible, although unicorn is.
Perhaps the Cat is in the Hat.
Num 23:22 God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn.
Num 24:8 God brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows.
Job 39:9 Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?
Job 39:10 Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?
Psa 29:6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.
Psa 92:10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
I do not understand anything important about the question, other than you're right.

The unicorn mentioned in the bible (Num.23:22,,,24:8,,,Job.39:9,,,39:10,,,Psa.29:6,,,92:10,,,
they are also mentioned in plural form in Deu.,,,Psa.,,,and Isa.)
is translated from the Septuagint verse.It is not a reference to the mythical creature,but is widely reguarded to refer to a wild bull or possibly a rinocerous.The septuagint is the greek version of the old testament.The Hebrew word is re'em.You people should really consider getting a Strong's Concordance.It is an invaluable study tool.If you know a word in a verse you can look it up and every verse that word is in will be listed.I think I only gave $30 for mine.It is money well spent.And yeah,,,like everyone said.Lions are cats soooo........

I didn't know that unicorns are in the Bible, just wondering but where? Not trying to be mean, but seriously wondering...and by what cats species are you talking about, big cats or the smaller kind? Lions are mentioned in the Bible, but my cat Spitfire is not...at least his class is not...

I think you better rethink that, cats are in the bible, Lions are cats.
Unicorns, once you understand where they come from things make more sense. Way way back people started seeing knights on their horses with their Lances and they had never seen such a sight before. The Lance (from a distance) made it appear as if the horse had a single long horn extending from it's forehead. Unicorns are Knights.

Where are there unicorns in the bible? If it's true, that's just one more reason to believe the bible is a work of fiction.

Unicorns are used as an Analogy

Because G-d created unicorns, but house cats evolved.
