I agree with the idea that taking fliers to the ISS would be an
interesting experiment. Hasn't this been done with some insects? If
not, then I would suggest taking several dragonflies, a humming bird
(two or three would be better), and a canary (again, several would be
better).

I believe that an Asimov story made a brief mention of a cat at a moon
base, who hunted mice that had escaped from a medical lab and then
started breeding. This was an orange, fat feline that leapt five
metres into the air whenever startled.
