Set within the JenkinsVerse, aka, The Deathworlders, this story by user Slice_of_Pi, explores the amusing story of how when the first humans were abducted and abandoned out in the greater galaxy...they found cats...known as "Gricka's" already there, and terrorizing the galaxy.

Some additional story notes from the author:

The march referenced at the beginning is the Easter Aldermaston March protesting nuclear weapons in the UK. It was the first such protest, and I felt it deserved some recognition.

Mrs. Nesbitt is a survivor of the Coventry Blitz in World War 2, which was a massive series of raids by the Luftwaffe resulting in massive destruction; it had a formative effect on bombing doctrine for the rest of the war.

The Irish blackthorn-wood shillelagh is both a formidable traditional weapon with a fighting style all its own and a traditional walking stick. Mr. Nesbitt may have had Irish ancestry, or perhaps Mrs. Nesbitt simply liked it...

The Bengal housecat is a popular breed for cat-lovers, and is the basis for how I see the gricka. The two Bengals referenced early on would have had a number of advantages in size and aptitude over many of the others, and thus would have (in my opinion) had a greater number of descendants.
