=== Cats from Yuggoth and Beyond ===
Cats are accomplished dreamers who are sometimes susceptible to a strange wanderlust that takes them to very weird and distant places.  Dreamers might almost certainly encounter cat travelers in the dark and starry astral voids of Solar and interstellar Trans-Neptunian space, given enough time and luck.  Cat wanderers have tread carefully and quietly in the shadows of [[Yuggoth]] and [[Nithon]], peeked afrightedly upon the terrible mysteries of [[Kynarth]], ridden strange and alien galleons to distant stars, and drifted patiently alone and solitary through the darkness of space to satisfy their feline curiosities about the secrets to be found in the places where no sun has shone.  Entities which were in life the wisest of cats, worshiped as gods by men, might also be found scattered throughout the [[Seven Planes]] in search of deeper enlightenment and perfection while serving ancient and mighty works of magick both great and benevolent, and dark and terrible, as powerful members of either white and black lodges of mysticism and sorcery, as best suits their whims and temperaments.

Perhaps I'll get around to describing the cats of other worlds as part of describing the Old Solar System setting.

Cats from Venus

Old Solar System Venus is a rainy world of alien swamps and dense jungles; there would be cats evolved to live both in the Venusian Dreamlands, and on waking Venus.

Cats from Jupiter

Dark and joyless varieties of cat might exist on one or more of Jupiter's moons, while strange and alien cats prowl the cool, dark and gelatinous world of Dreamlands Jupiter itself. Jupiter's bitter and alien moons are not attractive worlds for ordinary cats, and one suspects that these moons hold little or no lure for Earthly cats, and likewise have little attraction the even the Dreamlands cats of the outer worlds of Saturn and beyond, as even those peculiar examples of the feline race are said to prefer the moons of Earth and Mars among all other moons for whatever cryptic charms have always attracted cats to make their lunar pilgrimages since time immemorial.

Cats from Neptune

Neptunian cats are probably very similar to the other bizarre and dangerous cats from the outer worlds, resembling the Dreamlands cats of Saturn, Uranus, and Jupiter. These vast, dark, and icy worlds seem to have attracted cats of very curious, secretive, unfriendly, and even sinister and malevolent temperaments, and, no doubt, the rarely-seen Neptunian cats are no exception to this general rule. Who can say what awful mysteries and hideous secrets of the dark, swollen and cthonic outer worlds are kept and guarded by the silent and sinister cats of Neptune and beyond?

Cats from Yuggoth and Beyond

Cats are accomplished dreamers who are sometimes susceptible to a strange wanderlust that takes them to very weird and distant places. Dreamers might almost certainly encounter cat travelers in the dark and starry astral voids of Solar and interstellar Trans-Neptunian space, given enough time and luck. Cat wanderers have tread carefully and quietly in the shadows of Yuggoth and Nithon, peeked afrightedly upon the terrible mysteries of Kynarth, ridden strange and alien galleons to distant stars, and drifted patiently alone and solitary through the darkness of Astral space to satisfy their feline curiosities about the secrets to be found in the places where no sun has ever cast its light.

Entities which were in mortal life the wisest of cats, worshiped by man and monster in their times as gods, might also be found perched high upon the poorly-explored upper reaches of the Seven Planes in search of deeper enlightenment and perfection, while serving ancient and mighty works of magick both great and benevolent - and dark and terrible, for both white and black lodges of higher mysticism and sorcery have recruited ancient and powerful cats into their respective ranks, as best suits the whims and temperaments of the cat witches and wizards who have joined them.
