Across many cultures, it is believed that cats have multiple lives. Arabic legends told tales of six lives; the Spanish said seven, while ancient Egyptians coined the idea of cats having nine lives. Regardless of the number, Void had exhausted her quota.
It had been a few months since roboticist Jenny Hudson lost her best friend. Void was a Norwegian Forest cat with a coat so dark; you'd mistake her for a walking black hole. She had been a great companion and source of comfort during tough times, but now, Jenny was alone. Out of grief and spite, Jenny was determined to break this notion of cats having a finite number of lives.
She worked tirelessly, studied the biomechanics of a cat's movement, trained computational AI models, and searched for a material that captured the richness of Void's fur. Finally, after many lives, VOID.2 was born. A fully autonomous robotic kitten made in the name of Jenny's loved one. A few years later, VOID.2 became a staple in elderly homes and children's hospitals worldwide, touching the lives of many. Finally, Jenny was content. She was now able to accept and love the Void in her heart.
