Unlike your average cat, Binky has a purpose; he is a space cat. Binky is also an indoor cat. He is not been allowed in the space outside his home. But even as a kitten he realized that his home was being invaded by aliens! His humans, both the big and small one would exclaim, “Ew, bugs!” Binky did his research in books and online and discovered that aliens and bugs,
“--can fly
--steal your food
--lay eggs
Binky came to three conclusions:
1. Obviously bugs and aliens are the same thing.
2. Too bad humans aren’t smart enough to figure this out.
3. That must be why they need a cat around.”

Determined to protect his humans, Binky sends away for his Space Cat kit and trains very hard to deal with the alien menace.
