Overview
Cat157E is an audio drama mini series by illbringyoudown. While the series does contain visuals the production mostly focuses on the audio side and features a large cast of voice actors. Illbringyoudown is also responsible for the semi-animated audio series Pandora Chorus, a wolf based series which was being made at the same time as Cat157E was being released before its eventual cancellation.

The story was written in 2011 by illbringyoudown as a school project. It was rewritten and spent some time as a comic in 2013 on DevaintART but was discontinued. It was then rewritten a second time and later made into the audio drama now seen. Illbringyoudown stated in the description of the first part of the mini series that there will be approximately five to six parts in total. The first part of the series was uploaded to Youtube on October 29th 2016. Part three of the mini series was released on March 12th 2019. Episodes for the mini series average around six to seven minutes in length. A release date for the forth installment of the mini series has not yet been announced.

Plot
Things could certainly be better for Mel. Lately his owners have been arguing a lot, random people keep coming to take their things, and the neighborhood stray Tillen just won't stop visiting to spout off crazy ideas. It's all simply too much and worse it's cutting into his beauty sleep. One day, after yet another long night of his owners fighting, Mel awakens to find Tillen calling for him. Tillen shares with the irritable tom cat that some strange people came and took one of their neighbors. A cat named Snow. Along with his own fears that someone is coming for him too. Unfazed by the news, and irritated overall, Mel tells Tillen that Snow most likely went to that vet. And that no one is coming for him.

That evening however, Mel is awoken by a loud argument between his owners and a bottle being smashed on the ground. Irritated he slips out into the rain where a mysterious car is parked outside. Before he knows what’s happening, Mel is snatched up, locked in a cage, and taken to my isolated old building deep in the woods. Now renamed to cat 157E, he finds himself in what he can only call Hell.

Characters
Mel (157E) appears to be the main character of the series. But there are some characters that repeatedly appear such as Snow and Namy (145L).
