- catSprites: scale the cat to ~2.7x its cell (the sprite is ~40% cat, 60%
transparent padding) so it reads tile-sized instead of tiny.
- tavernMap: remove the centre rug — tile 923 renders green, which looks wrong on
the wood floor. (Re-add with a verified warm rug tile later.)
The black boxes around furniture/windows were transparent object tiles drawn
straight onto the dark canvas. Fix at the pipeline level, not as a tavern one-off:
- tileRenderer: a tile kind whose legend declares `over` (the ground it sits on)
now draws that base tile FIRST, then the object on top — so the object's
transparent areas show the floor/wall. Works for any scene, atlas or flat-colour
fallback. Wall-grounding shadow strip now only applies to real walls, not objects.
- sceneModel TAVERN_LEGEND: declares over='floor' for bar/keg/shelf/table/chair/
barrel/crate/rug and over='wall' for windows.
- catSprites: the cat occupies ~40% of its 50x50 frame, so scale to ~2x the cell
and centre it — it now reads about tile-sized instead of tiny.

The old 'cat' used a char-goblin sprite (green monster). Replaced with actual
pixel cats from the Pet Cats Pack (CC-0, commercial-ok):
- html/assets/cats/cat1..6-idle.png — 6 cats, 10-frame 50x50 idle strips.
- catSprites.js: loads + animates a cat sprite (RK.drawCatCanvas), flips to face left.
- tileRenderer: draws entities with kind 'cat' via the cat sprite path (shadow + frame).
- tavernLife: spawns a RANDOM cat that wanders the customer floor (not behind the
bar), injected as kind 'cat' with its catSprite id. Degrades to a villager if
catSprites.js isn't loaded.
- tavern.html loads catSprites.js.
