Cat's Paw Nebula Journey [2] - a New friend
25 Jan 2022Rock'n'roller
Only 3 hours passed since I left a bubble when I heard a strange sound from somewhere back in the ship.The sound wasn't a sound of a ship.
I set the autopilot route to the nearest planet with a biological signature and went to check what it was.
I finished checks in all modules, luckily Viper doesn't have much of them. The last room was a kitchen.
I thought "ok. maybe it was a hallucination" and opened the kitchen door to make a coffee.
What a surprise!
A middle-aged cat with long striping brown fur was sitting on the table trying to pull out a piece of dried meat I prepared for dinner from the auto-hydrating machine.
She looked at me and instead of hiding as usually cats do - just meowed at me and sat still and stare at the meat.
So ok. Now I have a Cat ????
Meanwhile, autopilot landed the ship and I saw that planet I selected had an atmosphere, asteroid rings, and 2 types of biological samples. But today I don't think I will go outside. I need to prepare a sleeping spot for my new companion.
