Scourge of the inner Solar System, space kitties have an affinity for traveling spaceships, and will latch on to the nearest one available. Apparently they seek the warmth radiating from the ship’s hull, especially around the engine and windows, where the most thermal leakage occurs. Space kitties aren’t particularly vicious, though they’ve been known to latch their teeth onto an astronaut on occasion, especially ones who are flailing about like a loose ball of string and drawing attention to themselves. Their typical food source is unknown at this time—it could be space rats.

The real problem with these critters is their nanodander. These tiny allergens pass through spacecraft hulls, and the best spacesuits, with ease. For nearly 99.9% of the population, it’s instant sneeze time as the tiny particles irritate the lungs. And the snot-hurling spasms have no end! The only thing to do is either get rid of the cute and cuddly sneeze-inducers by any means possible, or simply RUN! The only people who seem to have immunity to nanodander are elderly cat-ladies living by themselves on remote asteroids.

In the rare image provided below, a pride of space kitties is seen latched onto a Blacktron’s trusty 918. Not even the legendary 918, or stoic Blacktons, are immune to space-kitty nanodander.

Wolf
