Siloti

Siloti is an animal on Pollux V. The siloti descended from those original inhabitants of the planet, the Nauians, who did not manage to retreat to the underground shelters. Those survivors devolved during the ensuing meteor cataclysm and ice age.

In the size of a cat, they combine an insectoid pattern with 4-legged reptilian form and forelimbs resembling a praying mantis.
