The Book of Erotic Fantasy has the Fellid template that turns any humanoid race into a cat-people race. All the halflings of my homebrew world have this template that increases Dex, gives bonuses to Balance, Climb, Hide, Jump, and Move Silently, and as the creature increases in level, it gets slow fall and a bonus cat-like feat.

This is my favorite 3e cat-race, especially since it touches on many breeds of cats. In a way, it reminds me of the Rakasta from Mystara. There's several variants of the Rakasta on Vaults of Pandius, IIRC.

Yep, Tome of Horrors. Excellent book.

A cheap way to get a feline class is to buy a catfolk mini with the card. The stats are abbreviated but should give you the basics.

We have one in Neiyar: Land of Heaven and the Abyss with no ECL. Imagine what would happen if you crossed a kender with a tiger. That's the mahaultae.

CAT FOLK
In its natural form, a cat folk is an attractive biped standing approximately 6 feet tall and weighing about 120 pounds. Its face and body are humanlike except for several distinctly feline features: a short muzzle, whiskers, vertical pupils, a long, graceful tail, and legs shaped like those of big cats. Its body is covered in soft fur-usually black, although almost any shade is possible. If desired, a cat folk can assume the form of a normal (albeit a bit large) house cat with fur the same color as it has in its normal form. The creature most often takes cat form to hide or run from attackers.
Species Traits
Alternate Form (Su): As an attack or move action, a cat folk can assume the form of a normal-sized cat or revert to its natural form. In cat form, the creature has the same physical statistics and attributes as a normal cat but retains its normal Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores, as well as its normal hit points. A cat folk can remain in either form indefinitely.
Automatic Languages: A cat folk reads, writes, and speaks Cat Folk. It can also speak the language of other felines (cats, panthers, tigers, and the like).
Bonus Feats: A cat folk receives Alertness as a bonus feat.
Claws (Ex): A cat folk has retractable claws that function as natural weapons. Each claw deals 1d4 points of slashing damage (plus the creature's Strength bonus) and threatens a critical hit on a natural 20.
Feline Aversion (Ex): Any normal feline that can smell or see a cat folk must make a successful Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 the cat folk's Hit Dice + its Charisma modifier) or flee in fear. A successful save means the feline is shaken but does not flee. In either case, the feline attacks the cat folk only if cornered. A cat folk is immune to its own feline aversion effect and to those of other cat folk.
Mesmerizing Gaze (Su): Any mammalian creature within 30 feet of a cat folk that meets its gaze must make a successful Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 the cat folk's Hit Dice + its Charisma modifier) or be dazed.
Scent (Ex): This ability allows a cat folk, regardless of its form, to detect approaching enemies, sniff out hidden foes, and track by sense of smell.
Slow Fall (Ex): A cat folk ignores falling damage from heights of 30 feet or less. When falling from a greater height, it can attempt a Reflex save (DC 15) to halve the damage.
