What does tuned Arahbo look like?

I'm looking to build my wife another edh deck, and she's really into the idea of a cat deck. I'm thinking Arahbo, Roar of the World might be a fun way to spam the board with small-medium cats to aggro your opponents to death.
What I want to see is your deck! What makes your deck good? What makes it fun? How does it compare competitively to your other decks and in your meta?
The only Arahbo deck I've seen in action was very equipment focused. That's not really my plan, as her and I already have artifact centric decks, but don't let that hold you back from sharing your list!
Thanks in advance!
You would also have the colors for cards like Zendikar Resurgent , Mana Reflection and Mirari's Wake

I've no list but there are some neat cats to include:
Qasali Pridemage , Leonin Warleader , Mirri, Weatherlight Duelist , Regal Caracal , Jazal Goldmane , Qasali Slingers , Temur Sabertooth , Brimaz, King of Oreskos , Felidar Sovereign , Nacatl War-Pride , Jareth, Leonine Titan and Fleecemane Lion .
I know some of these came in the deck or are really obvious but the seem to be among the better ones, i think.

Hey, I also don't have a Arahbo deck, but to take more advantage of eminence (+3/+3 for a Cat) my advice is to keep the mana curve low. Mostly one and two drop Cats, some three drops, couple of four drops and top the curve at five drop Regal Caracal and Arahbo:
Here's an example:
- Loam Lion
- Wild Nacatl
- Savannah Lions
- Jungle Lion
- Steppe Lynx
- Scythe Leopard
- Sacred Cat
- Trained Caracal
- Glittering Lynx
- Fleecemane Lion
- Qasali Pridemage
- Adorned Pouncer
- Metallic Mimic
- Leonin Arbiter
- Leonin Skyhunter
- Ajani's Pridemate
- Leonin Relic-Warder
- Brimaz, King of Oreskos
- Mirri, Weatherlight Duelist
- Skyhunter Skirmisher
- Pride Sovereign
- Mirri, Cat Warrior
- Alms Collector
- Jazal Goldmane
- Leonin Warleader
- Regal Caracal

EDHrec is a great reasource for this and I would suggest giving it a look.
It will give you a bunch of cards that are good in a commander of your choice based on what other players have put in their own decks.
The website shouldn’t be used as a hard rule since some of the cards it suggest might not be that great but overall it’s pretty helpful for build the skeleton of your deck.
Just something to consider :)

Hungry Lynx is one of the best cats, but I don't think that ARotW is a great commander. Many of the cats are underpowered, and GW isn't the best EDH color combination.

My brother has an Arahbo edh deck, but its been awhile since he has played it. Maybe some powerful cat creatures like Pride Sovereign could be good and some spells like White Sun's Zenith could be fun to swarm the board. If you are just going for a tribal theme a good package of artifacts to run would be Coat of Arms , Urza's Incubator , and maybe Obelisk of Urd .
