Orphaned Barbary finds a new home on a space station but runs into difficulties trying to protect her pet cat Mickey. This description may be from another edition of this product.
This was an engaging book which does a good job at explaining some of the "realities" of life on a space station. The cat is adorable and the girls are nicely characterized. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the treatment of the "visitors" but that's probably as much because I've read many books which take the opposite view as anything else.
Very good book for pre-teen

I read this book when I was 12 and I loved it. I thought it was the best I had ever read. I read again last week (I'm 16 now) I still thought it was great but not that good. It's about a girl called Barbary who smuggles her pet cat onto a research station. I recomend that you should get this for your selves or your children. Enjoy
