Ugly Orange is an orange and white cat seen at Stray Cat Love Station. His name was given to him by his caretaker due to his unique appearance. He is one of the most common visitors to the feeder; he enjoys sitting inside the feeder alone and with other cats, especially Mr. Boba. He was first sighted by the global community on August 8, 2024.

Behavior

Ugly Orange is commonly seen sitting and laying inside the feeder. He also frequently eats from the feeder; however, he shows a strong preference for chicken snacks and rarely eats kibble when it's dropped. He is not an assertive cat at the feeder; other cats regularly swoop in to eat food when it's dropped, and he's usually content to let them eat first. If he wants to eat while other cats are eating, he will reach his paw into the bowl, scoop out snacks, and eat them off the floor.

Ugly Orange enjoys playing with the other cats at the feeder. Like many others, he especially enjoys playing with the rainbow tunnel. He gets physical with other cats, but rarely in an aggressive manner. Ugly Orange has been seen playfully biting Mr. Boba several times, and they have swatted at each other several times inside the feeder; however, they enjoy each other's company and are seen hanging out together often.

Ugly Orange also enjoys looking out the window located high up the wall. To reach this window, he will scale the wall, then hold onto the grate that covers the window while he looks outside. He can look out the window like this for several minutes.

Appearance

Ugly Orange is an orange and white cat. His most unique feature is the roughly triangular orange spots on either side of his nose. Other than the spots, he is a pretty average-looking cat. His front is almost all white and his back is almost all orange. His tabby stripes are faint and not always visible in the feeder's lighting. His front legs are all white and his back legs are mostly white with some orange coloring that almost reaches his paws. His tail is orange. He is a pretty hefty cat, but he is not as large as Mr. Honey.
