The Wombacat Award is a metal badge, which can be worn either as a woggle or on a Scout belt. It is awarded for participation in a wide range of activities. Each Scout can re-qualify every year, but note that there is only one version of the Award and it is not identified by a special year or number. If worn as a woggle, only one Wombacat can be worn at a time. Additional Wombacat Awards may be worn on the Scout belt.
