@myconidiosyncracy can confirm the cat not only survives, but also survives the sequel.

@myconidiosyncracy also here's a bit of trivia
Sigourney Weaver very nearly lost her role in that film because, techincally, of Jonesy the cat.
She was having a massive allergic reaction during filming when she started, and they thought it was the cat. Because the cat was specifically trained, it was far cheaper to replace her than the cat.
Luckily it was the synthetic sweat they were using that caused the reaction, not the cat!

@myconidiosyncracy So instead of the synthetic sweat, she literally did laps around the set until she was genuinely sweaty before filming scenes.

@myconidiosyncracy you're welcome! I wish random trivia like that didn't take up so much space in my brain but at least it comes in handy sometimes ^^;
