Honey, I Got Us a Cat.

Roan gave his name and the small woman smiled. She was proud of him for being so calm about all of this. She had an idea that had he been another man, he would have tried to keep her from doing what she was born to do. The situation was a dangerous one to get into. If at any moment this cat wanted to kill her, it could. One bite to the back of her skull and there would be no more Iolaire. She trusted the feline, however. He made an effort and was trusting her to help him.
Stepping towards the leopard called Enki, the tiny healer gently worked the hind paw that had been trapped. When she got to the longer bones that led to the toes, the cat growled low and involuntarily jerked his paw away. Io blinked. It had been quick, but she felt it. There was a break in his inner most metatarsus. Left untreated, that could spell death for a lone leopard.
Sitting back, Iolaire motioned to the feline's paw. "Broken. Needs fixed." Enki's brow furrowed and he growled again. Obviously knowing that his foot was broken brought the same dire thoughts about in him. "If you come with us, I can heal you. It will take time." Iolaire offered. The cat seemed to have a sense of honor, for he pulled himself to a seated position and nodded, bowing his head. "In debt," he growled. She took that as agreement that the cat would come back to the Armada with them. She cast a glace to Roan, silently asking if he agreed with her offer.

Io has a dwarf caribou companion and a snow leopard companion. Assume they aren't with her unless stated otherwise.
