Kzinti (singular Kzin) is probably the big wedding one of the best alien races or civilizations created in the Space Opera. Creators are author Larry Niven, though in many respects is quite reactionary. Something the big wedding that partially visible in his books. The books dealing with the Kzinti are not some of Larry Niven's best, it is instead the books of Ringworld and the two books about Moties (Mote in God's Eye and The Gripping Hand). The latter Niven wrote together with the more reactionary writer Jerry Pournelle.
Although Niven and Pournelle are quite right-wing, the big wedding I like many of their books, as you can imagine, I like especially Ringworld books and books about Mote in God's Eye. None of them play a major role Kzinti. the big wedding Nor is it Larry Niven who developed Kzinti as intelligent beings and race, but a writer who has written the big wedding books set in the universe created the big wedding by Larry Niven and which goes under the name of Known Space. Most of what is written about Kzinti are short stories, some of the latter compound to novels:

Kzinti is anything but a sympathetic race and the number of individuals who are very sympathetic sheep. It is an extreme macho culture where women are slaves and have been stupid in the head through genetic engineering and breeding controlled by men to create submissive and unintelligent women. Maybe a dream for men on Niven and Pour Ella, what do I know, but a nightmare seed all others. Would Kzinti get the power, it's about that it will be a hell for all by the side of the dominant men. An unsympathetic nightmare society where war is something the big wedding ongoing. But the greatness of Kzinti is perhaps the big wedding just that, they are human but hideous, they look like giant cats (okay tigers) but is totally fucking conniving, unpredictable, aggressive and violent. It's almost surprising that so many books have been written which Kzinti have an important role. Then there are minority groups within the Kzinti where women are not slaves. They live on the hidden planets, but becomes more prominent with time.
Kzinti that race has become so successful that they adopted and adapted also to Star Trek and Star Fleet Universe (which in turn is an adaptation of Star Trek). Cat-like aliens is quite popular in SF literature and SF games. Is, for example, also in the role play Travellerspoint where they are prominent and in some of the CJ. Cherryh's books on a part of the Alliance-Union universe-to name a few.
