A hara cat was a feline animal native to Bajor, noted for its gracefulness and quick movement. (TNG novel: The Battle of Betazed)

During the Occupation of Bajor, Kira Nerys once mistook a hara cat for a Cardassian Guard soldier and shot it. (DS9: "Second Skin")

In 2397, Kanril Eleya was forced to drop out of the Hell Week portion of her Bajoran Militia training after she broke her ankle stepping in a hara cat burrow. (Bait and Switch: "From Bajor to the Black, Part I")

In 2412, Kanril Eleya referred to herself as "the red hara cat in a brown burrow", in reference to how she didn't fit in with the rest of her family. (The War of the Masters: "The Only Way to Go")

This is apparently the Bajoran equivalent of being the family black sheep.
