Saber cat

Saber cats, not to be confused with Binarian sabercats, were a huge, feline, carnivorous species native to the planet Monastery. They were predators with a thick horn which protruded from the top of the skull. The saber cat had four huge paws, each with five razor-sharp claws. Their teeth were also razor-sharp.

In their years on Monastery, the members of the Order of the Sacred Circle had tamed several saber cats, and kept them as pets.

When Luke Skywalker accompanied Domina Tagge back to Monastery on a diplomatic mission, he saved her from a seemingsaber cat. In truth, Vader manipulated the creature, as he had done earlier with a nightshrike), causing Luke to seem violent to the Order of the Sacred Circle.
