Chapter I
Omi returned to his small room with a look of disappointment after his 7th birthday party. The will of owning a cat fell through again. Mom was always reluctant to allow. How much he wanted a cat！ Whenever he saw a cat, he would get close to it, and most cats didn't run away from him, too. He felt he could somewhat understand cats' various behaviors, emotions, and sounds. He even thought he was a cat. But his mom was so disgusted with those small furry animals.
Tossed around on his small bed, Omi was as irritable as the weather in July that he was dimly but just unable to sleep. Suddenly, he heard a soft meow outside the window. "it's Rogue!" Omi woke up and jumped out of bed, ran to the window. Rogue's call was so gentle and unique. He often saw from the window that Rogue was running around each house at night, while much less been seen during the daytime. Sometimes she ran alone, sometimes with a black or tabby cat. Rogue also visited Omi's room from time to time but was never detected by Omi's parents.
Omi opened the window, saw Rogue who had all the white furs lying on the window, with two big eyes shining like light bulbs. If it is daytime, you would see her two different colors' pupils; one is sky blue, the other is golden. To appraise with beauty, Rogue is definitely on the top. But neighbors both liked and disliked Rogue. If you heard the screams of neighbor the fourth aunt, or Aunt Li, it was highly probable that Rogue did something terrible again.
Rogue jumped into Omi's small room through the window, then jumped onto a soft chair by the table and meowed a few more. Suddenly, Omi fully understood what she was saying, much clearer than any time before without guessing: "Omi, do you know the cat museum?"
"Cat Museum? Hmm... I seem to have heard this name, but I don't know anything else."
Rogue caught a glimpse of a packet of small fish biscuits on Omi's table. She jumped up to scoop a few, then continued to chatter: "Mao~The Cat Museum is in the Aks city. In people's eyes, it is just a place that displays various materials, information, and history about cats, and it is an ordinary museum with many cat-related art collections. There are some cat residents, and people who visit the museum can play with them. But these are not all the functions of the cat museum." Rogue paused and smiled slyly. Then she lowered her throat and said, "It's really lively at night when there are no human visitors. There are all kinds of cats coming and going: live cats, deceased cats, legendary cats, and celebrity changing cats."
"Cats who are deceased?"
"Yes, it's just the deceased from your human's point of view. In fact, we are all incarnations/ avatars on the earth, which are no different from our natural bodies. We also experience birth, old, sickness, and death, but the so-called death is just the destruction of the incarnations. Our natural bodies are on the cat planet and usually can live a long, long time. "
"Cat planet? Wow! There must be oceans of cats! Where is it?" Omi's eyes were shining.
Rogue stretched out and yawned impatiently, turned the topic back:" The Cat Museum is actually a liaison station to cat planet. Do you want to visit Cat Planet? If so, follow me to the museum."
"Sure! But how can we get there?"
Rogue jumped to Omi unexpectedly:" Hold me, close your eyes."
Chapter II
Omi closed his eyes; then he felt the whole body levitating suddenly. But this feeling didn't last for a few minutes that he was lightly touched by Rogue, who was in his arms, and returned to the ground: "Here, open your eyes."
In the museum exhibition hall late at night, only the wall lamps were on. At first sight, Omi saw the whole wall of paintings of cats facing him. The Monroe cat grabbed the most attention. In a corner, in a portrait of a pair of cats, one of which looked to be sick. Omi was puzzled but just swept across. Suddenly, he excitedly yelled at an image: "Ha! It is Garfield!" the painted Garfield rolled his eyes at Omi and jumped out of the picture. Following the action, he saw a dozen cats in the surrounding shadows. Omi could vaguely see those cats with different colors: black and white, brown, black, or white. Suddenly he saw an extraordinary cat, ordinary tawny, big pointed ears, with only one eye but three tails. Omi couldn't help looking at this peculiar cat for a long time. The cat grinned when Omi looked at him and made a strange sound that Omi had never heard before.
When Omi was about to chat with the cat, a skinny blue cat wearing a dark blue T-shirt and glasses suddenly walked in from the door of the exhibition hall. Rogue shouted, "Uncle Cat~." Uncle Cat approached Rogue, turned to look at Omi, then asked Rogue, "Is this the kid Omi you talked about?"
"Yes, I brought him here. Now my mission is complete; I am leaving first~."
"Hi, Omi, nice to see you~" Uncle Cat stretched out a paw to touch Omi's arm: "I am Uncle Cat, the cat in charge here. I think Rogue has told you the story of Cat Planet? Do you want to visit Cat Planet?"
"Yeah, I do~~, But Rogue just mentioned the Cat Planet. Could you tell me more about it?"
"Okay. The Cat Planet is a wonderful planet in a mysterious place called the Cat's Eye Nebula. It is very far from the earth, about three thousand light-years away? But for us, cats, this distance is not a problem. The main inhabitant of the cat planet is us, cats, of course. There are also various other species; some also can be found on the earth, such as mice, birds, fish, etc. We have a civilization much higher than that of humans, but the temperature there is higher than that of the earth, and the resources are not so rich as the earth. A long time ago, the environment of our cat planet was wonderful... But with the development of civilization, the environment became worse and worse. The deteriorating environment and limited space pushed us to consider alien immigration, which was as early as 10,000 years ago, and the earth is one of our choices." Uncle Cat said, his eyes blurred.
"How did you come to earth?" Omi was so curious.
"Do you know wormholes? This is our main way to reach the earth. Thanks to our ancestor Catusk. Three thousand years ago, he made a historic breakthrough in the field of wormholes that we started large-scale immigration. It's just that our immigration method is incarnation immigration. When the avatar immigrates to another planet, such as the earth, the natural body on the cat planet is digitally compressed and stored in the cloud disk. When the avatar dies, the natural body is activated through the rainbow bridge. This is the most convenient way. Of course. There are also some real bodies visiting other planets, but most of them just stay for a while for temporary scientific inspections. According to needs, there are also avatars on the cat planet. The avatars are no different from the real bodies, but the avatars have greater options for changes, while the real bodies have more flexible storage and continuation methods."
"But for those cats who are born on the earth, are they have their natural bodies on the Cat Planet?" Omi asked.
"Oh, yes. An avatar always gives birth to the avatar. The corresponding data will be created automatically on the Cat Planet. Cat Planet is our forever home."
Suddenly there was a loud noise in the distance. "Rogue must have flipped the food cover again." Uncle Cat curled his mouth as usual.
"Rogue brought you here because there are some serious problems on the cat planet. We need a group of external forces to coordinate. After investigation, we think you are one of the right candidates."
"Wow! Will I go there like this? What am I going to do there?"
"No, you need to transform because the human image is too big and inconvenient. It is also an incarnation transformation. I can't disclose what you are going to do. There is our training base nearby. You have to receive a few days of training there before going to the Cat planet. You will slowly realize what you are going to do."
Uncle Cat magically took out a box from his arms and handed it to Omi: "You have to eat the cat's paw cake inside first."
"After eating the cat's claw cakes given by uncle, will I become a kitten?"
"You will become a little mouse."
Chapter III
"Little mouse!" Omi exclaimed that a few cats around jumped up with frightening: "Aren't the cats and mice deadly enemies? But I like cats!"
"Don't worry, Omi~" Uncle Cat smiled and explained: "The hostility between mice and cats is not engraved in genes. It's just that the size, strength, and abundance of sources of mice, in general, happen to fall into the hunting category of cats. Especially on earth, when the first regular cat immigrants came to earth, mice were flooded in the human world and were extremely easy to obtain. Our ancestors also needed some excuses to establish contact with humans. Catching mice became a popular sport in the cat world at that time, and in the eyes of humans, it becomes a stereotype of cat and mouse hostility."
"In fact, how can we cats' minds only be on the mouse, hahaha. We..." Uncle Cat showed a hint of pride on his calm face. Feeling that he had almost given away some secrets, he quickly restrained it.
"Later, the cat immigration situation changed a lot. After stabilizing the position of the master to human, some cats shifted their focus. They are more willing to spend their time and energy on more important things; some cats still retain hunting habits, but they are not necessarily interested in mice."
Uncle Cat stopped, took out a tea set under his T-shirt, put it on a nearby table, and made a pot of oolong tea. "Drink tea?" Uncle Cat asked Omi. Omi shook his head. Uncle Cat picked up a teacup and licked the tea, then continued: "You see Rogue. She is not interested in mice, but is much more interested in birds flying in the sky and fish swimming in the water." Omi laughed, remembering that in the list of bad things Rogue had done, there were indeed many things like that scared the parrots of Uncle Zhang's and broke the fish tank in Grandma Wang's house.
Uncle Cat changed his tone again: "But of course, cats are still very threatening to mice. We may catch them just as toys or just as practicing, but the mice may die because of this. Even if civilization regulations do not allow harm to mice, since mice are not at a level of strength as ours, it is still easy to cause damage. So if a cat says that his "psychological species" is a mouse, the rats should not believe him, unless he removes the hardware that can cause harm and gives the rats enough time to prove it."
"As to the little mouse, if it thinks he is a cat, he wants to enter the world of cats~" Uncle Cat paused, "He must have enough strength himself. It is useless to rely on policies and public opinion to generate "integration" for a time. The final one who is ultimately hurt is the mouse itself."
"On our cat planet, our civilization no longer allows us to hunt small mice and birds. We have made great efforts to coexist peacefully with them and build homes together. And we admit that in some fields they are better than We have more advantages. In our traditional powerful field, we do not oppose them coming in to try. We give them the opportunity. However, it is unreasonable to force them to participate if there is too much difference in strength."
"But on the earth, haha." Uncle Cat smiled triumphantly, "Since the earth's civilization hasn't reached such a high level as ours, we cats, of course, are freer to do something as willing~ There are many cats that are more willing to come to the earth because of this. Well, certainly, it is also a large part of cats are here to spread love and save human beings."
Uncle Cat looked at Omi: "If you become a mouse, first of all, you still have a human mind, and as our special agent, we will transplant some of our cat's abilities to you. These are superb abilities for you. So, you have enough capital to deal with we cats."
After saying this, Uncle Cat poured a few more cups of tea, wiped his mouth, and asked Omi: "What do you think, Omi. Would you like to eat this cat's paw cake to be a little mouse and go to Cat Planet?"
