Baleful Polymorph and awaken animal, restoring memory?

[Chyrone]

Yesterday i played a homegame.

In it, we were fighting an epic encounter on the high levels. My witch ended up turning the boss (a night hag) into a neutral kitten. Both saves failed, so mental scores matching accordingly.

(great improvement from NE)

Then it occurred to me that, since baleful polymorph mentions the animal retains its class levels and some benefits thereof, we now have a kitten with 5 levels of fighter.

What would happen if we cast awaken animal on it, regarding memory?
Does it remember what it was before being turned into a cat? (bloody vengeance!)
Or simply remembering just being a cat? (with a lack of memory of a complete cat life)

The answer is, you can't. Baleful Polymorph (just like every other polymorph spell) does not change a creature's type. Therefore the boss with not be a valid target for Awaken unless it was an animal before.

Okay. Thank you for the answer.
