Secrets of Data's Cat, Spot

10. Likes to torture Ensign Lo's Pekinese.

9. Enjoys the occasional sex change.

8. When alone, often retrieves fresh salmon from the replicator.

7. Keeps getting little dusty pawprints on Data's tricorders.

6. Slips through ventilation system, shimmies down to Level 36, then curls up in one of the radioactive exhaust manifolds in hopes of one day mutating into MegaSpot, Destroyer of Worlds.

5. Has a little robot mouse named "Data."

4. Plots the fall of the Romulan empire.

3. Totally paranoid will one day be possessed by the spirit of an alien dog.

2. Poops in paper bag, then sets bag on fire outside Picard's quarters, paws the doorbell and runs away.

1. Dreams of hunting tribbles.

Additions...

14. Resents unimaginative name, wonders how to tell Data his true name is "Zebulon."

13. Spies on the naughty goings-on of the Enterprise and slips back into Data's quarters to enter it all into a padd he uses as a kitty journal.

12. Sleeps on top of Picard's head at night, to keep it warm.

11. Likes to sneak into the holodeck and travel back to ancient Egypt where cats were suitably treated.

I love all the pics.

I found info on Spot.

Quote:
Spot was a cat owned by the android Data.

Data chose to have a pet as part of his efforts to become more Human and despite not having emotions until 2371 Data always had a great deal of affection for her, developing no less than 221 different feline supplements to satisfy Spot's dietary requirements (TNG episode: "Data's Day").

Spot exhibits a similar amount of attachment to Data but is less fond of the rest of the USS Enterprise-D's crew, after having being cared for by quite a variety of Data's friends. William T. Riker once agreed to take care of Spot, which ended abruptly when Spot scratched him. After treating the deep scratches that Spot gave Riker, Beverly Crusher then agreed to take care of the cat, and Commander Riker suggested that she take a phaser along. When Geordi La Forge took Spot in briefly to see what having a cat would be like, Spot wrecked his quarters before hiding under LaForge's bed. Worf once agreed to take care of Spot, but found himself to be allergic to cats and sneezed on Spot. The only other person Spot really seemed to get along with was Reginald Barclay (who later got a Cat of his own). (TNG episodes: "Timescape", "Force of Nature", and "Genesis").

In 2370, Spot became pregnant, sired by any one of the Enterprise's twelve male cats and eventually gave birth to five kittens. During the last days of her pregnancy, a synthetic T-cell was causing the crew of the Enterprise to de-evolve. Spot was also affected, and was transformed into a lizard just as she was giving birth to her kittens. The kittens were not affected by the disease, and when discovered by Captain Jean-Luc Picard and Data, the pair realized that they had a potential method of reversing the effects of the T-cell virus. Data was able to use amniotic fluid from the pregnant Alyssa Ogawa to create a retrovirus to eliminate the T-cell virus and return the crew to normal, including Spot. (TNG episode: "Genesis")

In 2371, Spot survived the Enterprise's crash landing onto Veridian III and upon her discovery, Data, recently installed with an emotion chip, was overjoyed. (TNG movie: Generations).

The two both transferred to the new USS Enterprise-E upon its launch in 2372. In 2379, Data sacrificed himself to save the Enterprise and her crew. (TNG movie: Nemesis).

Following Data's death, ownership of Spot fell to Commander Worf, who had recently returned to the Enterprise. Spot and Worf did not get along at first, but Worf soon came to see the feline as a proud warrior who sees what she wants and takes it. (TNG novel A Time for War, A Time for Peace; TTN novel Orion's Hounds)

It was a good ploy to expand the character.

It was kind of funny that Spot never took to any of the other crew members that were supposed to be taking care of him if Data was away. I love the scene with Worf from Phantasms that Hunniah posted the screencaps of.

As I was reminded last night, watching A Fistful of Datas, Spot gets to play a role in cluing us in to Data's malfunction during that episode

"Vamoose, ya l'il varmint!"

Oh, did he?

Watching Data's Day, I noticed Data asked for "Feline Supplement number ..." whatever. Anyways, I think it was forty something, which would imply that Data had that many meal variations for Spot.
