Youd think between developing warp drive technology and ending war on earth that there had at least been one person in that galaxy who knew a way how to train cats
@DevilDan83 Well, she is a cat. As such she is in possession of a fair bit of intelligence, as far as animals go. I could see her messing with the door controls given a long time of watching Data touch them and the door open. A world of touch screens makes it much easier on animals.
@DevilDan83 It's possible that she escaped when Data opened the door--he went one way, and Spot went the other, so Data never realized that she got out.
@tomcatm16 they origionally had a male cat play the part of spot but later through the series they changed it for another which turned out to be female and decided to run with it
i reckon data is just humoring the humans when he says it isn't sentient i love the exasperation at 'i have not been entirely successful' its so classic and they keep on about how he has no emotion no emotion my ass
how many cats did they use, first a shorthair orange tabby then a shorthair buff then am orange mediumhair. were they unable toget the same animal each time?
@tigerfanfrv The original Spot was a Somali (a long-haired Abyssinian) and was in six episodes until (s)he was replaced by the short-haired buff tabby. So, two cats. It's never really explained why the change was made--Spot has also changed gender without comment--but it's been suggested in jest that it was a transporter malfunction or she's a shapeshifter.
@uwillbeassimilated I did hear though that at least one of the replacements was because the orignal one died so I guess there was nothing they could do about that but yeah it is ridiculous. Have you seen grin's Star trek Mistakes? it's hilarious.
@uwillbeassimilated I'm assuming that at least the long-hair was one of the "kittens" (I have holes in my Trek knowledge, lol. It's not allowed at my house.) Although the sex-changing is bothersome.
I always liked that extra who quite often appeared in this programme. The one in the blue dress at Data's recital. But I could never find out her name.
@SinnFein4ever Actually they use it in two episodes origally in "Skin and Evil" and "Shades of Gray", but the one where Data holding the teapot is "Force of Nature" I just need to find what episodeis when Riker get scratch by Spot.
'Don't know, but the audio clip at 3:50 where Will screams "DATA, SOMTHING'S GOT MEEEEE!" is from the episode "Skin of Evil" where they kill off Security officer Lt. Tasha Yarr (I believe, from the 1st season).
Can anyone else here on YouTube help 101mkable out?
(THUMBS-UP THIS POST, TO HELP OUT ONE OF OUR FELLOW TREKIES! )
@SinnFein4ever I love Memory Alpha; it's just that there was relatively limited information on Spot when I looked up his page last time. Thanks for the reply, though. I believe I ended up watching that episode at one point.
Why are there like two different Spots? One is darker and furrier. The other is striped, shorter haired, and lighter colored. And why is Spot called "he" in one episode, but pregnant in another? Lol
Rikers worst nightmare

The answers to lot of different kinds of questions about Star Trek can be answered by looking it up on Memory Alpha.
It's like a Wikkipedia just for Star Trek fans.
Although there's no forums there, so you can't talk to other fans there.
