Inter-Galactic Cat (short story)

Inter-Galactic Cat was a short story in the Doctor Who Annual 1982. It had the theme of the cliché story in which a supercomputer attempts world domination in blind belief that it is doing good. This bares some similarity to The War Machines with the difference being that Genesis III wants to benefit humanity, rather than replace it. It also had similar themes to Planet of Giants and others, as it features miniaturisation.

Summary
Genesis III, a supercomputer, brings the Fourth Doctor and his companions to Space Station Alpha. There he plans to use the TARDIS to gain dominion over the universe in a miniaturised form. Meanwhile, Adric must venture through a war zone the size of an atom.
