I vaguely remember this circa 1990’s 2-player game where you (and I think all the enemies) ride around on skateboards and fight each other.

There some odd thing where you can get free lives by catching some sort of cat that runs across the screen.

I think the cabinet had a vampire-looking logo.

Only thing that comes to mind is Konami’s **Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles** game; the second stage had all the characters riding “surfboards” in the sewers as they fought.

I remember in “Skate or Die” there was a section that featured jousting in a swimming pool. I don’t recall anything about a cat, though.
