talk about cats in a spaceflight

Speaking about minorities in space, canines (Laika) actually beat simians into space, if I have my facts neatly marshaled?

But about space-faring felines, I know next to nothing.  Why not and, why, for example, has not a Bengal Tiger or, for that matter, a regular puddy-tat  not entered orbit, hmm?

Frankly, I am appalled.  Our priorities are all kinked, it seems...

Oh, wait!  I might have taken a comment out of context...?

This one, Commander Busby, has already done some capsule training:

Félicette was euthanized two months after the launch so that scientists could perform a necropsy to examine her brain.

What were these sadists going to find in her brain after just a several minute long flight?

Disgusting and unforgivable.

More unforgivable is that the CERMA has killed several more cats in similar way.

For some reason its lots of images and videos about model railways with cats in them.

And it looks like its an nice backstory for this

Not the first image as its an much larger scale model train who makes the cat only elephant sized.
