Sylvia, an extragalactic alien who inhabited Pyris VII, took the form of an immense cat to attack Captain James T. Kirk and his landing party in 2267. Kirk later asked Spock why she took the form of a cat, to which Spock explained that "the cat is the most ruthless, most terrifying of animals, as far back as the saber-toothed tiger."
