Barrel Felyne Location

Best Location is in Trese Salt Caves

You can constantly find a Barrel Felyne inside the Trese Salt Caves, which is located on the northeast corner of Trese Desert and has a Catavan Stand at the entrance. The cat spawns in the big area right in the middle of the cave.

This Trese Salt Caves location is the most guaranteed area where you can find a Barrel Felyne, considering Barrel Felynes are rare monsters and they spawn at almost every location in the whole map.

You can easily farm Barrel Felynes at Trese Salt Caves by defeating one in the cave, then coming back out at the entrance, wait for 1 to 2 minutes, then come back in the cave, and a Barrel Felyne should respawn at the same spot.
