Cat-Person
The Cat-People, or Felinetta, were a widespread race of galactic scavengers. They were a female-dominated species thinking male dominated species should be spayed.
Biology
The Cat-People looked like Earth cats and possibly had a similar biology. They stood upright and had very strong bodies and gave birth to litters. One sub-species, the Aegis, used metamorphic cats for undercover missions, possibly indicating that Cat-People were capable of shape-shifting. (MA: Invasion of the Cat-People)
Genetic Relations
The Cat-People were either a taxonomy or some sort of phenomenon, like humanoids and near-humans, as they were related to many cat-species in the universe. These include...
- Lion-men from Mongo
- Felinoids of Cait
- the Mercenaries of Gin-Seng
- Aegis (which come from worlds like Vedela and Capella)
- Kzinti warriors
- Cheetah People (DW: Survival)
- Kitlings (DW: Survival)
- Depending on the wording, Vedela and Capella may be home to any Cat-People and not just Aegis.
As these are sub-species of Cat-People, it is possible cat worlds like Cait, Vedela, and the Cheetah Planet are rogue planets that drifted out of the Lynx Constellation.
Technology
The Cat-People had access to space travel, thinking their ships were the most powerful in the Mutter's Spiral. They could create a "fear-barrier" around their ship and had ray guns. (MA: Invasion of the Cat-People)
History
Before the this group of Cat-People invaded Earth they had eradicated a reptilian race on the planet Kalidon and skirmished with Gargar rebels on the frontier world of the Maskill system.
In 1994, the Cat-People travelled to Earth in an attempt to explode the beacons left on Earth 40,000 years earlier by the Euterpians. They were defeated by The Second Doctor and his companions Polly Wright and Ben Jackson. (MA: Invasion of the Cat-People)
