Remember the Trouble With Tribbles?

Bella informed me she's a Tribble rescue from the Starship Enterprise.
She has a baby photo to prove it.

She explained that instead of ingesting the poisoned grains by the Klingons like most other Tribbles who died, she got separated from her pack and found her way to the Starship Experimental DNA Lab. She fed on the sample foods there.
When discovered by a compassionate crew member, she was beamed to Earth with the hope she'd live out a peaceful Tribble existence. A day later, however, her body morphed into a poodle! She claims a breeder found her while taking a walk on a nature trail, and unable to find an owner, sold her to me.

It's a good thing she was a baby and couldn't talk yet; she might have ended up a circus!
