The jaguar-derived cats of San Lucas were in the middle of a long-term rebellion against their panther-derived overlords when they made Contact with us. Both the Uaithni and the Gangani wanted our aid in ending the war, by helping them defeat the others of course, but the local colonists kept their aid limited to humanitarian relief. And to stopping atrocities. The cats on both sides quickly realized that we had no stomach for watching either side killing entire villages, or burning major cities. And now that they knew what to look for, the colonists could find the cat towns. The various Uaithni rebellions quickly began to moderate their tactics, officially ending their support of suicide bombings against civilian targets. And the Gangani responded by limiting their own punitive raids against suspected Uaithni towns thought to harbor rebels. Which further reduced rebellious sentiments in the Uaithni communities, and improved the quality of life for everyone involved.
