Feline Divinanimality: Starseed Soteriology and Lyran Ontology
This paper analyzes the entangled relationship between feline divinanimality and extraterrestrial ontology, which has spawned a New Religious Movement (NRM) called Lyran Starseeds, centered upon a human–feline interspecies coevolution and exogenesis. Alongside offering a detailed exposition of this new intergalactic creature exotheology, I will also analyze the many ways it has been inspired by historical feline veneration and contemporary science fiction film and literature. I shall argue that both offer Lyran Starseeds an epistemological framework to situate and legitimize their intergalactic feline ontology.

Cats in Space: Animal Astronauts, Scientific Information, and Nonfiction Picturebooks
This study examines the visual and verbal strategies used to communicate disturbing or difficult scientific information to children in four nonfiction picturebooks. Inspired by the idea of cats in space, the works under consideration demonstrate the very different formal approaches available to narrative versus expository texts in an age of alternative facts and inconvenient truths. The discussion, which explores works written in Spanish, Italian, and English, focuses on two stories about the first and only cat in space, Félicette, and two popular guides to the universe. Of the works studied, three successfully subordinate fiction to the objectives of science, while the fourth avoids painful realities by prioritizing speculative fancy over historical fact. In an era of digital gadgetry, they testify to the vitality of the picturebook as an instructional technology.
