Caitians
The Caitians are a feline race apparently related to the Kzin. They
are bipedal, with a thick orange mane, long tail, and large golden
eyes that provide excellent low-light vision. They have excellent
hearing which extends into the supersonic range. Physically, they are
extremely agile and fast. Their language is a tonal one, which
utilizes many low-pitched noises like growls or purrs. Consequently,
they have trouble adapting to human-style phonetic languages.
Their homeworld is planet II or twelve, around the moderate-sized
yellow star the Terrans called 15 Lyncis. It has two moons, Rea and
Sura.

Society
(From Star Trek) Caitians practice total equality of the sexes, and
have throughout their recorded history. Even Caitian names have no
gender indicated, so a male child is just as likely to be named after
his mother as his father.
