Cat Hooker - Performance ranks
Tribal: VFB% percentile
3
Tribal: rVAP percentile
13%
Performance ranks are a quick visual measure of the contestant's season vs. historical data from all prior contestants, in three basic (scorable) categories:
1. Performance in individual challenges (MPF), as a measure of "physical game";
2. Ability to vote people out consistently (VFB%, or VFB/TCA), or "strategic game"; and
3. Ability to avoid being voted against (rVAP, or TCA-VAP) - which scales better than a percentage would - for "social/strategic game."

Cat Hooker - Bio
AU: Redemption bio Official Ten AU: Redemption bio excerpts (2/20/26):
"No stranger to lies and deception, Cat appeared on season two of Traitors NZ, using her skills to build trust with her fellow contestants. But playing a ‘faithful’ in the show meant she had no opportunity to showcase her dark side, and it’s a side she’s excited to show off.
“Survivor is probably a chance to do all the things you can't do in your normal life. Like you can't be this naughty in normal life. you'll go to jail. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and I think don't waste it. Go full naughty.”
Rational and reasonable, Cat is 41 and works in mental health, supporting people facing challenges. She says working in the field for 13 years has given her insight into how people operate and believes she’s good at reading both people and situations.
Aware she isn’t likely to be a challenge beast when fighting for rewards and immunity, Cat doesn’t mind if people glance over her as a threat.
“I'm happy for people to underestimate me here, I think it will get me further in the game. I'm sneaky and I think you need to be sneaky in this game. If you put all your cards on the table you're just not going to get very far.”
Admitting she’s been knocked over a few times in life, Cat hasn’t let it stop her doing what she wants to do. And right now what she wants to do is take home the title of Sole Survivor and pocket $500,000 in prizemoney."
