Fanvid: cats... IN SPACE!

by niyalune

Summary:

Featuring : pet cats, alien cats, evil cats, sexy cats, internet cats, a couple of lions, two litters of kitties, and one actual, real life space cat.

Notes:

• For Trelkez.

Prompt : "Cats in space. Cats! In space! Star Trek: TNG, Alien, Futurama, Doctor Who ... I'm sure there are others? Cats in space."

For trelkez, whose request was too much fun not to fill, even though I've only watched, like, half the sources I used. Turns out there's a decent amount of space cats out there, a lot of whom are ginger. Thanks for the prompt :)

Edit: I've had a great time making this and I'm delighted that people seemed to enjoy the abundance of cats as well :D I figured I had seen quite a few vids about dogs and that cats deserved their share of vid-love too.
Also I'd like to thank the internet at large for all the helpful lists of cats in different media - truly a godsend.

This signed version has a few slight differences from the anonymous one (I added a couple of clips for better flow).

The song is Everybody wants to be a cat, by Charles Perry.

 

Everybody wants to be a cat
Because a cat's the only cat
Who knows where it's at
Everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat
'Cause everything else is obsolete

A square with a horn
Makes you wish you weren't born
Ever'time he plays
And with a square in the act
You can set music back
To the caveman days

I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing
But still a cat's the only cat
Who knows how to swing
Who wants to dig a long-haired gig
Or stuff like that?
When everybody wants to be a cat

Everybody wants to be a cat
Because a cat's the only cat
Who knows where it's at
While playin' jazz he always has a welcome mat
'Cause everybody digs a swingin' cat
I want you to know
I want you to know
