One of the two arks, following a set of sacred directions (Lister's laundry list, which he lined Frankenstein's basket with), promptly crashed into an asteroid. According to a dying cat priest ([[Noel Coleman]]), "the sick and the lame" cat people did not go on the arks with the rest of the cats, and were left on ''Red Dwarf'' to die.
