I was once ask a question about the kats calendar system in this list, but
it seem that nobody answered it.

Time is relative, one day in MegaKat could be different from one day at Earth.

I think there is the possibilities that the kats is a little bit smaller
than the Kilrathi. BTW, the Kilrathi is a cat like species who always make
life miserable for the Terrans.
