The Caitians were a felinoid species from the planet Cait, a Federation world. Lieutenant M'Ress of the USS Enterprise was a Caitian.
History[]
Thousands of years ago the Kzinti ancestors settled on many worlds including Kzin and Ferasa Prime evolving into separate radically different species.
Caitians originated on Ferasa Prime, but due to an eugenics program aimed at creating Augments a split occurred in Ferasan society. While the augmented Ferasans prevailed, the non-augments retreated to a new homeworld, Cait, and became the Caitians.
Culture[]
Caitians' interlocking personal and clan relationships created large family groups that sometimes numbered in the hundreds.
