The story of Tom the Cat, is the story of an extraordinary feline. Tom the Cat is often mistaken for an ordinary tabby, but in our story, he is an ancient alien spirit guide. Sent by the Creator to Earth in a living spacecraft called “The Bug”, Tom’s mission was to plant the seeds of life on Earth and guide humanity through its evolution. Revered by many cultures, Tom shared his wisdom with historical figures like Buddha, Jesus, and Cleopatra. His presence was a beacon of hope and enlightenment, influencing great minds such as Leonardo da Vinci and Nikola Tesla. Tom’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and the pursuit of knowledge, leaving an indelible mark on the tapestry of human history.

Our goal is to harness the playful and communal spirit of memes to effect real, positive change in the world.

This website tells the story of Tom the Cat. To the uninformed observer, Tom the Cat may simply appear as a short-haired male tabby with white socks and a white bib. But to those of us lucky enough to know his true identity, Tom the Cat was actually an ancient alien sent by the Creator to planet Earth to plant the seed of life and nurture it for as long as needed. Native tribes might refer to Tom the Cat as a spirit guide, while those of Christian and similar faiths might call him an angel. But no matter what you call him, I call him my son.

Throughout the history of humankind, Tom the Cat has selected special humans with whom he would share a few of his many secrets. Tom spent time with Buddha and with Jesus Christ. One of Tom the Cat’s favorite humans was the semi-mythical king of Uruk, Gilgamesh. He also spent time with Cleopatra and Julius Caesar. Much later, he spent time with Leonardo da Vinci and Nostradamus. Even though both revealed more to the human race than Tom had requested, even in the 20th century, Tom still called both of them friends. Nikola Tesla and Tom the Cat were great friends and collaborators, as were Alexander Graham Bell and Albert Einstein. Tom even spent time in Nazi Germany with Heisenberg and convinced him not to share the secret of the nuclear bomb with the Nazis.

Even an immortal like Tom the Cat eventually grows weary. Tom went home to the Creator while asleep in my arms several years ago, and his body was mummified and laid to rest in holy soil. Tom the Cat came to live with me in the latter part of the 20th century and left this Earth in the early part of the 21st century. Tom the Cat was by far the kindest, most intelligent creature I encountered in my lifetime. He had a brain the size of a planet and a heart much larger.

Tom the Cat trusted me to tell his story when the time was right. Here, at the fulcrum of history, when humanity will face its greatest challenges, I believe that the story of Tom the Cat will not only inspire but may help many people understand the difference between the light and the dark, as well as the importance of free will.

As time allows, I will be telling Tom’s story from the very beginning. Each chapter will be based on Tom the Cat’s relationship with different historical figures. I do hope this work of love will entertain many, bring joy to some, and bring enlightenment to all those who are ready.

About the Author

While Robert X Bishop’s life spanned many fields from science to politics, maybe his greatest gift to the world is his storytelling – an art deeply rooted in his culture, where stories crafted with love and compassion are seen as the greatest gifts one can offer to humanity, and most certainly, to those they love. Through his saga of Tom the Cat, which began as an act of love and hope, he weaves a narrative that explores the heart of human potential and the cosmic mysteries that bind us all. It is a story of discovery, resilience, and enlightenment—a reflection of the enduring power of love and the strength of the human spirit.

Not long ago, Robert believed he had the perfect life—a life dedicated to service, humanity, and love. Driven by an unwavering commitment to solving the world’s most pressing problems, he lived with a deep sense of purpose. But when, in the span of just a few weeks, he lost everything he held dear—his loved ones, his purpose, and his security—he found himself homeless and near death. In those moments, as memories of his magical life flooded his mind, he was surprised to find himself at peace.

Alone and on the brink of death, Robert saw his situation not as a curse, but as an opportunity—an invitation to rebuild, to rediscover his true self, and to share the stories born from his pain, sacrifice, and resurrection. His tale of Tom the Cat woven from pure love had once helped someone close to him navigate the depths of mental illness. In fact, without those stories, that person may not have survived. Just as his writing had given them a reason to keep going, Robert now hopes his stories will do the same for others.

Through his stories, Robert inspires readers to embrace uncertainty, to seek hope even in the darkest of times, and to understand that love is the most powerful force in the universe. This is not just a story—it is a call to rediscover our true selves, to recognize the divine wisdom within, and to live with purpose and compassion.
