  • The Star Trek Concordance (1st edition, p. 158) defined the species as "a cat-type intelligent being. In the case of Lieutenant M'Ress, she walks on two legs like a humanoid, but has a distinctively feline face, ears, paws, and tail." Aside from the Caitians, the Concordance also liken the Kzinti and the Vedala as felinoids; likewise, the "Cat Woman" seen in Star Trek V: The Final Frontier would also fit this definition. The Star Fleet Universe includes an additional race of felinoids known as the "Lyrans", a species distantly related to the Kzinti.

The female miner that appeared in the Star Trek: The Animated Series episode "Mudd's Passion" was originally described, in an early final draft (24 May 1973 ) of the script, as a "Felinoid" before being modified to become an Ursinoid. The Star Fleet Universe includes an additional race of felinoids known as the "Lyrans", a species distantly related to the Kzinti.
