A mangy old stray tabby [[cat]] with common markings began visiting [[Sam Jones]] when she was homeless in a shelter in [[El Nath]] on the planet [[Ha'olam]]. The cat visited Sam each time she returned to El Nath over the next three years, eventually moving into her apartment with [[Rachel (Seeing I)|Rachel]]. Petting the cat, Sam reflected that "all it had done was live." | |||
When the cat was attacked by three regal-looking strays in a [[junkyard]], Sam helped nurse it back to health, although she noted that it acted "as if [[Time (Set Piece)|time]] and [[Pain (Set Piece)|pain]] and [[Death (Timewyrm: Revelation)|death]] and all that were just minor annoyances." | |||
After Sam left the cat in El Nath, it reappeared in [[Incopolis]], and Sam remembered seeing it earlier in the [[desert]] at [[Hirath]]. The cat led her to [[the TARDIS]]. Later, the [[Eighth Doctor]] met the cat outside the TARDIS and recognised it as an "old friend." He thanked her for watching Sam, noting "we each get the kind of life we give ourselves" and "that's the way Life works, doesn't she?" The cat leapt away into the bushes with a glimpse of alien eyes.
