Téama an Éadóchais agus na Uaigneasa: Léiríonn an dán mothúcháin an chait atá uaigneach agus sáraithe go morálta, ag mothú go bhfuil sé scoite amach ón saol mór agus ón gcolmáin atá timpeall air. (Theme of Despair and Loneliness: The poem expresses the cat's feelings of loneliness and emotional suffering, as it feels isolated from the wider world and the pigeons around it.)
Téama na Féiniúlachta agus an Dúshláin a bhaineann léi: Tá an cat ag iarraidh a fheiceáil cé hé féin, ach ní féidir leis a mhacasamhail a aimsiú; tá sé idir dhá shaol, idir saol an chait agus saol na n-éan. (Theme of Identity and the Struggle to Find It: The cat is trying to find out who it is but cannot find its own kind; it exists between two worlds, that of cats and that of birds.)
Téama an Mhíchomhoiriúnachta Sóisialta agus Éalaithe: Tugann an dán le fios go bhfuil an cat ag iarraidh a bheith páirteach i saol na ndaoine agus na n-éan, ach bíonn sé scaoilte amach go míthrócaireach. Faoi dheireadh, roghnaíonn an cat éalú trí léim, rud a léiríonn an t-ualach síceolaíoch agus an dóchas briste atá air. (Theme of Social Exclusion and Escape: The poem shows the cat's desire to be part of society but it is cruelly cast out. In the end, the cat chooses to escape its lack of belonging by leaping, revealing its psychological burden and broken hope.)
