I think it was foreshadowed as well. At the end of ALIEN, the only ones left
from the mission were Siguorney and the cat. The last scene shows Siguorney
laying in the hibernation unit craddleing the cat, and though Siguorney is
asleep, the cat is awake. You would think that the cat, being smaller and
having a higher metabolism rate, would have been put under faster by whatever
it is that puts the hibernee into hibernation. Or maybe it wasn't just a cat.
