Cosmic Cat is a series of sci-fi/adventure shorts. Twenty episodes are planned and feature Penny, a mysterious space cat and her human Will. They travel across the galaxy in their spaceship named Andromeda. They travel to other worlds encountering alien civilizations with a sense of adventure and sometimes trepidation. Penny also has a mischievous nature and mysterious origin.

The home base for the series is the spaceship Andromeda, named for the ancient Greek mythological figure and also the constellation, one of many built by the CosmoLiner company, as an intergalactic exploratory spaceship for a small crew. How Will acquired the spaceship for himself is revealed in a future episode, but it serves as his personal outer space recreational vehicle to realize his dream of exploring the cosmos. It has a small space pod vehicle and a vehicle for land travel, and there is a telescopic observatory under the top dome.

The series is filmed mostly on a stage to be able to create strange alien worlds. We are trying to recreate the look of sci-fi television shows filmed in the 1960s. Therefore practical effects and miniatures are used, and real sets instead of computer generated images. There are subtle clues in each episode as to what the next episode is going to be about, these easter eggs may be a magazine or comic book cover, or some other item in the background and are fleeting. Although each episode stands alone, there is an overall arc to the series so most of the stories are either already written or outlined.
