Tora is a fictional tabby cat character from the Tama and Friends franchise, originally created by Sony Creative Products in 1983 and owned by Yuzuko Oketani. Originating from the Oki Construction Company setting, Tora is characterized as a troublemaker who frequently attempts to convince his peers to participate in daredevil stunts, encouraging risky or adventurous behaviors.

One specific behavioral trait is his enjoyment of climbing to high places, which sometimes leads to situations where he is unable to get back down, highlighting a blend of adventurousness and occasional vulnerability. Within the group's social dynamics, he interacts with characters including the energetic cat Tama, the timid dog Pochi, and the gentle cat Momo, on whom Tama has a secret crush. Another character, the bulldog Bull, exhibits bullying tendencies towards the group and also harbors a crush on Momo.
