MISSING: Calico cat - answers to: Jonesy
Jonesy is the supposed name of a calico cat aboard the UNSC Pillar of Autumn. It was probably a pet of someone onboard the Autumn and was onboard during the Battle of Reach and when the Autumn reached Installation 04.
However, Jonesy's owner had lost her by then, although he put notices on the Bulletin Board to alert other personnel to the lost cat. Jonesy is assumed to have died either during the Battle of Installation 04, during the Covenant boarding, when the Autumn crashed, the Flood Invasion, or when John-117 and Cortana initiated the catastrophic destabilization of The Pillar of Autumn`s engines that destroyed Installation 04. But in Halo 3, there are posters for a cat by the name of Jonesy, which may be a hint that she is still alive. However, for a cat to have survived that long is extremely unlikely. There is also an apparent silhouette of a cat in the bottom right hand side of the poster, although it could be a black cat.
Trivia
- On the level Crow's Nest in Halo 3, there is a pile of garbage located near the toilets in the level. One of the pieces of rubbish is a note which is half covered up, but reads "Still missing my cat Jonesy". This is most likely an Easter Egg.
- Jonesy's owner may be Pete Stacker.
- A similar poster can half be seen in the trash on the the left side of Foundry facing the fans. You can see a picture of a cat and the word "missing" and "onesy".
- Although probably intended as a mere Easter egg, Jonsesy may be the ship's mascot. Individuals in military service can't own a pet whilst deployed, but ships and even planets have been known to have animals such as dogs and cats as mascots.
- The poster can be seen on several other boards throughout the level Pillar of Autumn.
- Jonesy is an obvious reference to the cat with the same name on the commercial towing ship, the Nostromo, from the movie Alien. Bungie has been theorized to have borrowed many aspects from Aliens as a basis for the Halo series.
Jonsey's name may be a reference to Jason Jones, hence Jason's last name.
