Socks joined the Chicago Firefighters at the beginning of S9, replacing Thomas Kirby, who was incinerated due to the Dead Weight blessing.
Socks is most often interpreted as a cat, either one cat in particular or any one of a number of local cats who wander into the Firehouse. Socks communicates through scratches, mean looks, and a seemingly endless supply of buttons which play audio recordings of words and phrases said by other Firefighters. Empirically, Maybe possesses strength greater than that of most cats. While some have called this strength comparable to that of a human, the general consensus in the Fire House is that Maybe's strength is equal to that of a tiger, or another similarly large feline. The exact source of her strength is is currently unknown, though it is theorized that her diet of grass and other houseplants contributes to some degree. When asked about how she does this, Maybe responded with a calm "meow" before wandering off (Maybe was not pressed for comment, as it is best not to overwork a cat with these things). Like all of us, they are from Chicago. Their jersey number is 872, which was passed on from Thomas Kirby |
