Shaun Higgins has been declared fit and will play his 250th game against North Melbourne this weekend, but the Cats will be without injured key defender Lachie Henderson. 

Higgins was a late withdrawal after being named to face Richmond in Round 19, but will line up against his former club when the Cats take on the Kangaroos in Hobart on Saturday.
