Tips

 * This weapon can be very useful in close range situations, for instance inside the Hardmode Dungeon, because of the tight corridors and small chambers with relatively flat geometry.
 * Once this weapon is obtained, farming the Moon Lord becomes significantly easier. He can easily be defeated by auto-swinging the sword backwards while running, allowing the player to outrun the Moon Lord's many homing attacks. Flying up and down when the Core is exposed while aiming up or down with the Meowmere also can make a "tower" of cat projectiles, which can damage the Core quickly enough to defeat it without lasers killing the player.
 * The overlapping sounds produced by the Meowmere can become annoying. It is possible to mute the cats by going to the game's directory and into the Sounds folder, and deleting the files  and.
 * Rather than deleting the files, it may be better to append the file name with a short explanation (altering the file name should be sufficient to prevent the game from using it). For example,  could be renamed to  . This way the player may not wonder, many months later, why some files are missing. And of course, one could restore the original file name at any time.
 * Altering sound files can cause the game to freeze, disabling all user input and effectively breaking the game until next restart. If this happens, restore the original files immediately.

Trivia

 * Having the highest base damage of all melee weapons, the Meowmere is considered by many as the strongest melee weapon in the game.
 * Even though the Meowmere has the highest damage in the game, the weapon with the second-highest base damage, the Terrarian, still has a higher because of the homing projectiles it launches, and the Yoyo Bag accessory.
 * The cat-shaped rainbow projectiles that the sword fires are inspired by the meme.
 * Some weapons like Dynamite, Bunny Cannon and Explosives have more damage than even a Ruthless Meowmere.
 * The Meowmere resembles the Palladium Sword's design.
 * It was referred to as the Meowmur before 1.3 was released.
 * In the, one of the developers changed the game credits on to mention a supposed new melee weapon that would shoot cat projectiles. This is referring to the Meowmere, of course.
