Cats in Space is a short film that answers the question we’ve always asked, both in our heads and in numerous unanswered letters to Gene Roddenberry: what if cats were Starfleet security officers in Star Trek, AKA red shirts? Luckily, they have nine lives.
Made by Dastoli Digital and starring cats Titan and Atlas, the short film and a making of video are below. And if you clicked on this post hoping for actual cats in space, we’ve also put the classic zero gravity cats video at the end.
(Cats doing cute things starts at 2:30)

In space, no one can hear you hack up a hairball.
Well, it’s better than that hairball Abrams came up with.
