Replacing “cat” also changes “category” unless you tick Whole words only. If capitals matter, for example changing “May” the month but not “may” the verb, tick Match upper and lower case exactly. With regular expressions switched on you can reuse captured groups in the replacement as $1, $2 and so on.
