  Quarantined Species by J. F. Bone - The Venusian horgels were cute, clever, intelligent. They made perfect pets. They were lovable. – But that was the big trouble. They were much, much too lovable! 
  "Did you ever own a Thompson asked. Hе leaned forward, a small gray man in his late sixties, and peered at his visitor through old fashioned bifocals across the breadth of desk which separated them. The young man standing before the desk fidgeted impatiently as Thompson looked down at the interview card which read "Edward Farnsworth,–Agent, Worldwide Shows", and scratched the ears of the big Siamese cat sitting on his lap. The cat looked up with incurious blue eyes, regarded Farnsworth with a peculiarly dispassionate starе. stretched, yawned, and closed 80 his eyes again. It was perfectly apparent that the tall swarthy visitor was a matter of complete disinterest. "Now take Cato, here," Thompson continued. "He's a fine specimen of a cat. Have you owned anything like him?"  
  "Once," Farnsworth said. "When I went to Venus. But I don't see what this has to do with my business with you. All I want is a simple answer. Do or do I not get permission to import a pair of Venusian horgels?"  
  "You do not," Thompson said succinctly.  
  "This makes the fourth time," Farnsworth sighed. "So I'll have to go to higher authority, I suppose."  
  "There is no higher authority, son. This is the end of the line."

  What's He Doing In There? -...

  What’s He Doing in There? is a light, humorous science-fiction story by Fritz Leiber, first published in 1957. The story follows a polite, soft-spoken Martian who arrives on Earth after secretly learning English from radio and television broadcasts. Instead of seeking out governments or scientists, he wisely chooses to contact a cultural anthropologist first — a man eager to study alien customs. 
  Everything seems perfectly calm until the Martian excuses himself and disappears into the family bathroom… and stays there. Minutes turn into an hour, then longer, and the professor’s household begins to panic. Why is he running the water? Is he ill? Is he conducting some kind of alien ritual? Is he experimenting? Is he drowning? The family debates everything from cultural taboos to possible interplanetary disasters — and no one wants to be the first person in history to knock on the bathroom door of a Martian. 
  Leiber turns a simple domestic scene into a comedy of curiosity and nerves, letting the tension build while the professor, his wife, and their children imagine every possible explanation. The joke is not just the mystery, but how humans react when faced with the unknown — with worry, speculation, and a touch of self-importance. It’s gentle satire from a writer who understood that science fiction can be funny without losing its insight. 
  Fritz Leiber (1910–1992) was one of the major figures of 20th-century speculative fiction and one of the first writers to blend horror, fantasy, and science fiction with a modern, human voice. Born in Chicago, he wrote everything from psychological ghost stories to space satire, and helped create the “sword and sorcery” genre through his famous Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser stories. 
  Leiber’s work earned the Hugo, Nebula, and World Fantasy Awards, and he is often credited with bringing literary style and emotional depth into pulp-era storytelling.
