Wow, I've been seeing these photoshop kitties all over RPGnet.
If I get some free time, I'll take a crack at it.

Bear with me, this is a first attempt at critters for me... 
[EDITED FOR LATIN CORRECTION OF GENUS-NAME & SPELLING]
Felis Hexosii Domesticus, aka the Hexan-Cat.
Size: (Tiny 1.75-3kg) Land/Carnivore-Pouncer-stock/ (a subspecies of Alpine Hexosian Wildcat); Init, +4 (+4Dex); Solitary Hunter, Attack +2; Flee +3 (or more); Speed: 12m; AC 16 (+2 for Tiny, +4 Dex); AR 0; St/Lb: 12/12 (1d10+1); Attack +4 Melee (1d3 2x claws/20; 1x bite 1d2/20); SV Fort +2, Ref +6, Will +4; SZ: T; Str 4, Dex 18, Con 12, Int 3, Edu-, Wis 5, Cha 10, Soc-.
Skills:
Listen, +6, Spot +6, Move silently +6
Feats:
Lightning reflexes, Tracker
Special Abilities:
As per Terran Felis Domesticus
Climate/terrain:
As per Terran Felis Domesticus
Organization
1, or mated pair with 1-4 kits.
The Hexan-Cat is a relatively smaller scale, tamer version of its larger wilder cousin (Sz-Small (25kg) Spd 18m) the Hexosian Alpine Wildcat, or 'Rockcat' as the natives call it, from its craggy lairs along steep mountainsides. Found on Hexos/Tobia. Domesticated by an enteprenuerial Belter long ago, and the cute little cusses became a starport sensation for resale to pet stores. Unfortunately for other feline breeders, the H-cat breeds only with its own kind, and has been known to kill even members of its species not of the same fur color. Despite this, they make admirable mousers/ rodent killers aboard starships, and tend to give their loyalty to only a handful of folk. Other positive/negative felinoid traits are exhibited as well...

I like that one.
The scientific name should be "Felis Hexosi (or Hexosii, I´m not completely certain) Domesticus", if you stick to the established nomenclature. You always go from the more common to the more specific: Cat - from Hexos - domesticated.
Our domesticated cats, BTW, are "Felis Silvestris Forma Catus": Felis means "cat", "silvestris" means "of the forest", or "living in the forest"; "forma" means "shape" and "catus" means "smart". As the undomesticated cat is simply "Felis silvestris", I assume the last two words mean they´re "shaped" (i.e. bred into different "races") and smarter (i.e. capable of domesticating their owners)
