They are vicious predators that hunt for enjoyment. Introducing these into an alien environment is pretty much the worst thing you could do outside of bringing rats along.
Yeah, but if the cat stays on the ship, you're not introducing it anywhere—and, as a bonus, you also reduce your chances of bringing rats along.
Oh god yes, bring that animal along into a closed environmental system that recycles the air. Flus are't bad enough, you get Toxoplasmosis for free for everyone \o/

P.S.: Sorry J!!, didn't see your post when quoting Durandal on the previous page.

Cats: Might bring toxoplasmosis

Rats: Might bring bubonic plague

18) Computer security.. that isn't. If your starship can be hijacked by anyone who's good at voice impersonations, you're royally f@#$ed. Plus, saying authorization codes out loud is a bloody stupid thing to do; you've got fingers, use a damned keyboard.
