Betelgeusian

Betelgeuseans are a race of aliens that originate from Planet Betelgeuse.

Appearances

Betalgeuseans resemble lanky bipedal cats that have eight thick antennae (two pairs at the top of their heads and another two pairs in the back) instead of more typical feline ears.

Physiology

Betelgeuseans have a bifurcated uvula; one that's split down the middle into two.

Betelgeusean brains are very small.

Despite having lungs, Betelgeuseans don't seem to breathe or at least don't need oxygen; Meow never bothers to wear a space suit and he seems to have no problem audibly laughing at a drowning Dandy when the two of them were submerged in water.

The bones of a Betelgeusean's tail and lower legs resemble coiled springs, which aids them in jumping.

Behavior

Betelgeuseans act a lot like the cats they resemble. Meow claims that Betelgeuseans are the largest consumers of dried fish flakes, indicating that they have a fondness for the taste of fish. It's not known if other Betelgeuseans share Meow's dislike of water or (initial) distrust of canines.

Betelgeuseans are a civilized race with a culture that seems to be almost entirely imported from Earth. One major difference is that Betelgeuseans don't seem to have a nudity taboo; some of their outfits don't cover their lower bodies and Meow sometimes sunbathes in the nude. Despite this, most Betelgeuseans wear regular human clothes.
