In 1952, Robert Heinlein introduced flat cats on Mars in his book, The Rolling Stones. Flat cats later starred in the Star Trek episode, “Trouble with Tribbles.”
—) I keep telling people that house cats originated as descendants of a once mighty feline civilization. It was 3,000 light years away in what is now the Cat’s Eye Nebula, the debris of what is left of their worlds.
When their planetary systems exploded, the cat entities spread throughout our galaxy. They long ago conquered Earth, as witnessed by their proliferation throughout the world. They originally were fierce predators and even hunted early hominids.
But they eventually developed pacifist natures and settled into a decadent race that prefers to bask in the laps of luxury provided by us, their former prey. In most cases, details of their long-ago diaspora remain in their memories as mere wispy, queasy dreams. (— (—

Those Martian cats hunt red dust bunnies and ochre meeses. They are sometimes harassed by dog-like Mars Rovers.

I knew it. Cats are aliens. They have conquered us. Resistance is futile.

As long as there’s a comfortable lap and food and treats, they’re good! No matter what planet.

If you can have pigs in space, why not cats on Mars.
