  Is that a Windup Girl reference? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Windup_Girl https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Windup_Girl (Cheshires are a thing in that book, bio-engineered cats that can change fur colour like a chameleon/octopus/squid to exactly match their surroundings. They breed and devastate the world's population of small animals such that there's a bounty for every one killed. I'm trying to remember where I read a great critique of the book, especially the cheshires, but I'm not finding it) Edited to add: found it: https://www.nyrsf.com/2015/10/eric-schaller-the-problem-with-cheshires-where-paolo-bacigalupis-the-windup-girl-fails.html https://www.nyrsf.com/2015/10/eric-schaller-the-problem-with...
