'''Ferret''', also referred to as RouRou (肉肉, "Meat-Meat"), is a munchkin cat from the [https://meow.camera/viewer/#4807298555153634266 This Is Your Home] feeder. She is typically seen visiting during the early mornings and daytime. She was given her name due to her resemblance of a ferret. It is presumed Ferret was previously a house cat, and was recently abandoned.


there are some things i'm debating on keeping. i think having an example of a filled out infobox in code form would be helpful for those who want a visual reference but it also takes up alot of space... if any lurkers want to share their thoughts, feel free to ping me in the wiki discord :P
== Behavior ==
Ferret has a lot of charm and love to her. When she visits the feeder, she is either having plenty of food, or a nap on the carpet. She does not mind the presence of other cats, and gives them the space they need while around the feeder. Ferret also enjoys the company of the [[Caretaker|caretaker]], as she followers her around, and seeks affection and pets from her.  


= '''How to Create a Page!''' =
== Appearance ==
This guide is to help you along the process of making a page, typically either for cats or feeders. If you're unfamiliar with source editor or need a refresher, this is for you.  
Ferret is a short legged cat due to her munchkin genes. Despite the majority of her coat being white, she has a diluted calico pattern. She has a short-hair coat and has spots around her torso and face showing off the calico coloring.
[[File:FerretTopView.png|none|thumb|207x207px|Ferret from above.]]


However, before you make a page you will need to check the following:
== Sightings ==
* '''Does this cat already exist?''' If you're making a cat page for a preexisting feeder, please make sure that you're not making a page for a cat who has already been documented. You can double check this by searching the wiki, or asking around in the [https://discord.gg/xmDbCQWM55 wiki discord.]
=== August 2024 ===
* '''Do I have enough information?''' If you have a name chosen, at least two or three sightings recorded, a understanding of the cat's behavior, and a few pictures that includes a top and front view of the cat, then you have the go-ahead to make a page. If you're making a page on a feeder, it is recommended to have at the bare minimum four or five cat pages made for the feeder.
* '''August 16, 2024:''' At 01:56 AM (LFT), Ferret would enter the feeder. She would sniff around to get familiar with her surroundings. She was then spooked by a cat jumping on-top of the feeder.
*'''Have I read the [[Guidelines]] fully yet?''' Above all else, please make sure you're following the wiki rules, otherwise you run the risk of getting your page deleted.
* '''August 17, 2024:'''  
** At 02:31 AM (LFT), Ferret arrived at the feeder. She had a quick sniff of the food, and had many bites of food. She ate from both a specially prepared bowl of tasty snacks, and the bowl of freeze dried snacks and kibble. Afterwards, she would have a long nap for roughly three hours.
** At 09:48 AM (LFT), Ferret would return to the feeder with the caretaker. While she cleaned and maintained the feeder, Ferret would assist in her own way by sticking close to the caretaker hoping for pets. Ferret is then spoiled with two extra bowls of special wet food, which she ate plenty of. She would continue to follow the caretaker around in-between eating, and was picked up and brought to the food bowls a few times.
* '''August 20, 2024:'''
** At 03:07 AM (LFT), Ferret showed up for a quick bite to eat.
** Later in the afternoon at 01:43 PM (LFT), Ferret was seen having a snooze. She would get up to watch whatever was happening outside the feeder.  
* '''August 21, 2024:'''  
** At 01:35 AM (LFT), Ferret was spotted having a nap on the carpet.
** Ferret later appeared at 05:34 AM (LFT) for yet another nap. She didn't stay long though, as she quickly left the feeder after a few minutes of rest.
* '''August 22, 2024:'''  
** At 05:10 AM (LFT), Ferret arrived for a feast. She would eat mainly from the two bowls of treats. While eating, she would drag the food out of the bowl with her mouth, then eat the food on the carpet. She would do this for roughly ten minutes.
** At 06:42 AM (LFT), Ferret showed up again and watched the outdoor activities from the feeder. She would then head to the plant in the corner, and explore it for a minute.
** Later at 03:28 PM (LFT), Ferret was spotted with the caretaker as she cleaned the feeder up and added a few things. Ferret would lay around and watch the caretaker from the carpet. She later got up, as she got curious to what appeared to be a short legged canine friend approaching the caretaker and feeder. Ferret would watch with interest from the protected feeder as the dog ate from a food bowl outside.
* '''August 23, 2024:''' At 04:17 AM (LFT), Ferret would approach the feeder while a black & white cat ate. She watched with interest while the cat ate. After the cat left, she decided to have her share of the food, and like yesterday dragged the food out the bowl to eat from the carpet.
* '''August 24, 2024:''' At 06:58 AM (LFT), Ferret would have a quick snooze at the feeder. She occasionally switched spots in-between naps, and eventually left half an hour later.

== Making and Preparing a Cat Page ==
== Gallery ==
To make a page, use the wiki search bar and enter the name of the cat you want to make the page of. If the page does not already exist, then it will show red text that you can click on. This will prompt you to the source editor.

In another tab, open up the [[Page Template]] page. Go into edit source, then copy the entire source. Paste the following source into the page you are making.
{{Cat Footer}}
 
== Adding Information ==
Throughout the source code, you will fill out each section with the information you have of the cat. Most parts should be self-explanatory, fill out a brief description of the cat including which feeder they are from, how they act, what they look like, and their recorded sightings. However, there are some things that require a bit more understanding for first time editors. The sections will include formatting, filling out templates, how to make a gallery, and any additional information you may need to know.
 
=== Cat Infobox ===
The first thing you'll see in the source is the cat infobox template, it should look like the following:
 
<code><nowiki>{{CatInfobox|name=Cat Name|image=Temp Image.png|breed=|coat=|sex=|appearance=|first_sighting=Month ##, Year}}</nowiki></code>
 
To start off, you will need to fill and replace text with information about the cat you're writing about. For example, where the bracket says <code>name=|</code>, or <code>coat=|</code>, you would fill in the according information ''after'' the equal sign. However, adding an image to the template requires a bit more effort. When adding an image in the infobox, use the [[Special:Upload|upload file]] page and upload a picture of the cat. Once successfully uploaded, copy the name of the file to the <code>image=|</code> part of the template.
 
If you would like to add more information to your infobox, here are some following brackets you can add:
* Rarity, personality, and occupation are typically seen on a majority of cat pages. This can be done by adding <code>rarity=|occupation=|personality=|</code>, and is typically placed inbetween the sex and first sighting brackets.
* If your cat has a relationship with another cat, whether it is familial, romantically, or otherwise unspecified, then you would add the relationship brackets to the infobox. The following code for that would be <code>parents=|partner=|siblings=|children=|other_relations=|</code>, and this would be typically placed after the first sightings bracket.
* Although optional, you can add a caption below the image you've uploaded. This can be done by adding <code>caption=|</code> immediately after the image brackets.
* If the cat goes by another name or has a nickname either from the international community or the Chinese community, then you can add the other names bracket. The code for this would be <code>other_names=|</code> and would be placed after the image or caption bracket.
 
This is an example of what a fully filled out infobox would look like, using the source code of [[Mr. Snack]]:
 
<code><nowiki>{{CatInfobox|name=Mr. Snack|image=Mr snack.jpg|caption= get snacked on!!|other_names=Also known as 冻干哥 or Freeze-Dried Brother|breed=Domestic Shorthair|coat=Red (ginger) Mackerel Tabby|sex=Male|rarity=Unseeable|occupation=Dad, Tax Evader|appearance=Orange with white chin|eye_color=Light green|personality=Picky, impatient|first_sighting=October 28, 2023|partner=[[Ms. Snack]] (ex wife)|children=[[The Snack Children]] ([[Little Fella]] and [[Mr. Inspector]])}}</nowiki></code>
 
=== Image Files & Galleries ===
Now that you have learned how to upload images for your cat infobox, we can utilize the image and gallery functions. In the appearance category of your source code, there will be code for a simple image that looks like this:
 
<code><nowiki>[[File:Temp Image.png|none|thumb|207x207px|Cat from above]]</nowiki></code>
 
This is how you would insert an image in your page. The first bracket is your file name. Similarly to the infobox, you would switch out ''Temp Image.png'' for an image you have uploaded of the cat. The next bracket is where the image presents itself.
