A.N. // This is my first fanfiction writing ever, and also, therefore, my first Star Trek fanfiction ever. Id love reviews if you folks have time to (even just a small comment on whether you liked it or not). I don't know all about the Star Trek Universe, so there may be a few inconsistencies. (example: I always forget elevators are turbolift's. xD) Set to take place after the movie. No real specific time.

Title // The Feline Way

Author // Sloan Abernathy

Summary // Spock is turned into a cat after the Enterprise visits a strange planet! Cat!Spock!!

A.N.2// Thank you, Aconitum-Napellus, for helping me with the name!

Disclaimer// I think its pretty obvious by now that no one here on fanfiction owns Star Trek, the universe, or any of the characters. This includes me, sadly. All belongs to the original creators etc.


Part 1

Jim Kirk and "Bones" McCoy both stared at what was in front of them on a biobed. Bones' mouth was twisted and eyebrows pulled together. Jim was doing all he could from laughing. On the biobed was a long, slender black cat, sitting upright and poised, staring at the two in front of it. This would have seemed to be any other black cat; however, the cat had a green nose and along with the pads of its feet. The cat's whiskers twitched slightly, giving really the only indication of it being alive.

"So Bones-" Jim finally composed himself, though a little giggle could be heard under his breath. "-Your telling me-" Jim turned to Bones. "That this is Spock?"

McCoy looked back to Jim, his face becoming normal again, for the most part. "Yes. This is Spock." He looked back to the black cat. Who took interest in the mention of its name. Jim giggled slightly and he took a deep breath. "I checked, Spock seems to be aware of what has happened to him, though I have noticed…" He trailed off, watching Spock's tail unravel itself from its feet and go up a bit. At the same time Spock would have normally raised an eyebrow. "More general feline characteristics." He finished.

Jim paused, "what do you mean?" He looked back from Bones to the cat. The doctor sighed.

"Let me put it this way, he kept trying to play with Ms. Chapel's keychain." Jim blinked, then laughed.

"Ah, I see." Bones nodded.

"Other than that, however, he is in perfect health. Well unless you call being a cat in perfect health." He grumbled.

Jim nodded and he watched Spock who had stood and was now stretching out. It yawned as it did, reveling a green tongue. Jim chuckled as Bones continued. "Well, we can't really put him in his room he wouldn't be able to do anything, and can't have him take up space here, and some of the crew is allergic to cats…"

Jim looked at Spock for a good long moment. Spock returned the gaze. " He could stay in my room, and in the bridge." He looked from Spock to Bones. Bones made a little shrug, and the two looked back to Spock, obviously waiting for input on the suggestion. Spock gave a curt nod in general approval. "Right! It's settled then!" Jim said happily, smiling a bit.

"Well Spock, let's get out of the nice doctors way." He looked to Bones, assuming they had covered all they needed to.

"I'll send you all the reports that need to be filled out for this sort of thing." Bones said, turning away to get back to some other work. Jim sighed but nodded.

"Fun fun!" He grumbled. Spock stood and jumped gracefully from the table and started to the door, walking as gracefully as ever. Jim followed behind quietly, smiling as he watched the black cat walk beside him. They made their way to the turbolift. They waited, then stepped inside, Spock sat now, stiffly on the cool floor. Jim looked down to the cat.

"Well Mr. Spock, you certainly know how to make things interesting around here."

Reviews and so on are highly welcomed. I hope that you enjoyed this so far. This is my first attempt ever at writing any sort of fanfiction (please be gentle?)
