Is SCP-999 No Longer the Cutest SCP? - SCP-529 - Josie the Half-Cat

SCP 529 is a Safe Class anomaly also known as Josie the Half-Cat.
SCP-529 is a small house cat (Felis catus) with grey tabby markings.
Parts of SCP529 to the rear of the end of the ribcage appear to be missing. The body terminates sharply as if sliced in two.
In spite of this, the animal has no health problems, and moves about as if its hindquarters were still in place. For example, walking takes place as usual, and some time after feeding the animal makes motions as if to void itself of waste matter.

Josie doesn't really consider dogs to be her natural enemy. In fact, she's best friends with SCP-530, a dog who constantly grows and un-grows additional limbs and other features in a random pattern.

So here's the real question. Given that the back half of her doesn't exist in THIS universe, might it perhaps be the half of the cat that exists in a mirror universe where things might be opposite of our own. Also, if say this mirror universe were to exist where things were polar opposites, then could we bring our 682 into their universe and have it's anomalous abilities converted through the laws of the mirror universe and it become the very easy to destroy reptile. And would the tickle monster be the harbinger of the scarlet king instead of it's supposed "destruction". It's amusing how many potential what ifs and questions could arise because of half of a cat. 🤣

[@robgoins3672]

Gonna be honest, I thought you were gonna make a comment about does the poop land in another dimension or something. The internet has taking a toll on my critical thinking……😂

[@Schattennebel]

What if the mirrorverse and our universe are parts of a true universe? So that SCP 529 could unlock her real powers when reunited with her missing half.

[@Commentation]

This does leave the question of is the scarlet king good in the mirror universe. This also leaves the question of when day breaks if anything good happens or anything different or if it stays the same But yes good theory

[@talesfromunderthemoon]

You reminded me with SCP-1730 incident, but could Josie one of the surviving victims of the stairs' flood which zapped the hind half of her out of the current reality?

“She’s perfectly harmless and…” Have you ever met a cat? They can almost match 682 in terms of aggression, and the only reason they don’t have tens of thousands of bodies racked up is because their claws and teeth usually don’t break the skin of the humans they try to kill.

I feel like 096 and 049 are viewed so much worse than they really are. 096 can’t control himself when someone sees his face, his rage state can’t be controlled, and he usually cries, most likely because he doesn’t want to kill. 049 is always very nice to everyone, and the way he treated Josie really showed how much kindness/compassion he has.
