Bill is an older kitten that appears at A Litter of Cats Who Love Each Other. He is one of Bob's children; he and his siblings were born in May 2024. He, along with his siblings, Bob Jr. and Brutus, are collectively called the Boblets. When he was very little, he showed up to the feeder with his mother, but as he grew, he began to show up pretty often by himself and with the other kittens. He has grown to be one of the more eccentric cats at the feeder. He, along with his siblings, were first sighted on May 31, 2024, not long after they were born.
Behavior
Bill has grown into an adventurous cat. When he was a baby, he would get the most frightened when food was dropped from the dispenser. However, he soon got used to it, and afterwards he could be seen sitting inside the bowl to eat quite often (before he grew into a larger cat). He also enjoys jumping on top of the feeder, and will do so every once in a while. He recently has gained an interest in random scraps of garbage, and he will find them, play with them and bring them into the feeder. Items he has blessed the feeder with include a small yellow packet, an old piece of paper, and a plastic bag filled with ants.
Bill enjoys sitting and relaxing in the feeder the most out of his siblings so far. Throughout his life, he has been seen sitting toward the back of the feeder, making a grumpy face. He also lays down and goes to sleep in the feeder sometimes, although he doesn't usually sleep for long in there. When the rug was inside the feeder, he enjoyed relaxing on the rug.
Bill is seen frequently at the feeder with other kittens, especially Bob Jr., and they seem to get along pretty well. He also has developed an intergenerational friendship with Serif. On top of the cats, Bill enjoys playing with crickets. He has been seen pawing at them gently and carrying them in his mouth, dropping them inside the bowl.
Appearance
Bill is an Orange Tabby. He is more orange than any other orange cat that visits the feeder. He has patches of white under his chin, on the top of his chest, and on his toes. As he grew older, he also developed a small patch of white fur on his back. Everywhere else, he is entirely orange. His tabby stripes are most noticeable on his legs and tail. He has a unique face that is characteristic of the Bob extended family; he has been described as looking like a Minecraft villager. He has noticeably large ears.
Sightings
May 2024
- May 31, 2024: Around 6:15 PM (LFT), Bill was sighted for the first time. He showed up to the feeder along with his mother and his two siblings. Baby Bill was adventurous and tried some kibble for the first time. However, when chicken snacks were dispensed for him, he got scared by the feeder and ran out. He did cautiously reenter the feeder eventually.
June 2024
- June 1, 2024:
- Around 2:35 PM (LFT), Bill returned to the feeder along with his mother and Bob Jr. Bill climbed inside the bowl in order to better reach the kibble while he munched.
- Around 7:45 PM (LFT), Bill and his family returned to the feeder. Bill stepped inside the feeder for a second, but ran out after being scared by dropped chicken snacks. For the rest of the visit, he hung out right outside the feeder while the rest of his family ate.
- June 2, 2024: Around 1:20 AM (LFT), Bill was seen sitting in the bowl, eating kibble, while Bob Jr. stood outside the bowl, eating kibble along with him.
July 2024
- July 1, 2024: Around 9:50 PM (LFT), Bill was seen standing in front of the bowl next to his mother. The bowl was empty, and Bill eventually started meowing to his mother, begging for food. Kibble and snacks were eventually dropped for the family, and Bill began to eat along with Bob Jr. Bill then laid down toward the back of the feeder and hung out while Bob Jr. ate some more. Bill closed his eyes for a few minutes until the rest of his family reentered the feeder. He then tried jumping on top of the feeder, but didn't jump high enough and fell to the ground (he was fine though).
- July 2, 2024:
- Around 7:45 AM (LFT), Bill was seen in the feeder with his mother and Bob Jr. He tried to get some shut eye, squeezing his eyes closed very tight. He looked very funny.
- Around 7:15 PM (LFT), Bill and his siblings were seen hanging out at the feeder with George. Bill entered the feeder and laid along the back. Soon after, George entered the feeder, and Bill curiously watched him eat from the back. He also gave Bill a little sniff, as Bill was standing very close to him.
- July 4, 2024:
- Around 7:35 PM (LFT), Bill was seen sitting outside the feeder after Brutus was finished eating. Bill soon entered the feeder and stared at the empty bowl. Bob and Brutus followed him into the feeder, and the three stared at the empty bowl for some time.
- Around 11:15 PM (LFT), Bill was seen inside the feeder, eating some kibble. When snacks were dropped, Bob Jr. joined him, and they ate together.
- July 5, 2024:
- Around 11:10 AM (LFT), Bill was seen eating at the feeder with his family.
- Around 8:45 PM (LFT), Bill was seen at the feeder with his siblings. Bill explored the back of the feeder while Bob Jr. ate.
- July 7, 2024:
- Around 12:20 AM (LFT), Bill and his siblings were seen nursing from their mother just outside the feeder.
- Around 4:00 PM (LFT), Bill and his family were seen hanging out in the dirt outside the feeder for several hours. Around 6:50, Bill entered the feeder and sniffed around.
- July 9, 2024:
- Around 7:15 PM (LFT), Bill and his siblings entered the feeder. Bill laid along the back, on the carpet, while his siblings explored. After his siblings left, Bill continued to sit on the carpet. He then laid down and took a little nap.
- Around 9:30 PM (LFT), Bill was seen meowing nonstop at his mother while she ate kibble. Bob stopped eating and let Bill eat some kibble. After he finished, his family left the feeder, and he continued to sit inside.
- July 13, 2024: Around 10:15 PM (LFT), Bill was seen at the feeder with his family. After the other family members ate some, he climbed into the bowl and enjoyed some kibble. After he finished eating, he climbed out and went by Brutus, who was laying inside the feeder. Brutus tried to grab his tail as he walked around her.
- July 15, 2024: Around 7:45 PM (LFT), Bill was seen at the feeder with his family. He mostly sat outside and watched Bob Jr. eat.
- July 16, 2024: Around 7:15 PM (LFT), Bill was seen in the feeder with his family. Bill was meowing at the empty bowl, telling it to drop food for him. Kibble was dropped, and he immediately began eating.
- July 20, 2024: Around 7:45 PM (LFT), Bill was seen sitting in front of the empty bowl, flaring out his huge ears for the world to see. Kibble was soon dropped for him, and he began eating. When he was finished, he went to the back corner of the feeder to pout before laying down there.
- July 25, 2024: Around 9:15 PM (LFT), Bill was seen sitting outside the feeder while Bob ate. When he moved too close to her, she hissed at him.
- July 30, 2024: Around 8:00 PM (LFT), Bill was seen sitting inside the empty bowl. He soon climbed out of the feeder and sat in front of the bowl, waiting for food.
August 2024
- August 14, 2024: Around 11:45 AM (LFT), Bill was seen sitting inside the empty feeder, butt facing the camera, looking sad. Kibble was dropped for him, which startled him out of the bowl, and he began eating while standing outside the bowl.
- August 19, 2024:
- Around 7:30 PM (LFT), Bill was seen laying in front of the bowl. Snacks were soon dropped for him, and he began eating.
- Around 11:35 PM (LFT), Bill was seen sitting in the back of the feeder, judgmentally watching Bob Jr. eat. When Bob Jr. left, Bill moved a little closer to the bowl, then laid down and fell asleep.
- August 22, 2024: Around 2:10 AM (LFT), Bill was seen laying outside the feeder. When kibble was dropped, he entered and began eating. Brutus eventually showed up and watched him eat.
- August 24, 2024: Around 12:55 AM (LFT), Bill was seen laying inside the feeder. Chicken snacks were dropped for him, and he began eating.
- August 25, 2024: At 5:45 AM (LFT), Bill entered the feeder. Kibble was dropped, and he began eating. At 5:48, he went back outside and sat outside the feeder for a while.
- August 27, 2024: At 12:59 AM (LFT), Bill was seen eating some kibble and snacks.
- August 29, 2024: Around 11:50 PM (LFT), Bill was seen laying outside the feeder while Brutus ate. When Brutus was done, Bill entered the feeder and ate some.
September 2024
- September 1, 2024: Around 2:40 AM (LFT), Bill was seen at the feeder with Bob Jr. A small yellow packet, which the Boblets would play with intermittently over the next few weeks, appeared for the first time.
- September 6, 2024: Around 8:45 PM (LFT), Bill was seen laying down and relaxing in the feeder.
- September 9, 2024: At 9:14 PM (LFT), Bill entered the feeder and began eating kibble. He then sat up and looked at the camera some.
- September 11, 2024: Around 9:25 PM (LFT), Bill was seen swatting at the dispenser. He then investigated a large plastic bag that appeared inside the feeder. After this, he laid down and relaxed some.
- September 15, 2024: Around 8:35 PM (LFT), Bill was seen hanging out inside the feeder with Mack. Kibble was dropped, and Bill began eating while Mack watched.
- September 16, 2024:
- At 3:29 AM (LFT), Bill entered the feeder and began eating kibble. Snacks were dropped, and he ate the snacks while Bob Jr. watched. After the snacks were gone, Bill sat in the feeder for another minute before leaving at 3:33.
- At 4:48 AM (LFT), Bill entered the feeder and began playing with a packet he found earlier. Bob Jr. soon joined him, and they played with the packet together. At one point, the packet fell in the large gap in the ground next to the feeder. Bill squeezed himself into this gap, retrieved the packet, and slithered back out of the gap, victorious. After it fell in the gap again, he went inside and retrieved it one more time.
- Around 7:45 PM (LFT), Bill was seen sitting in the feeder. He approached the bowl, pawed at the kibble some, then laid down and slept some.
- September 17, 2024:
- Around 1:30 AM (LFT), Bill was seen outside the feeder while his mother ate. He annoyed her too much, and she hissed at him. It was then seen that he had placed the small yellow packet inside the feeder behind her. At 1:55, after Bob left, Bill entered the feeder and messed around with the packet from before. He tried to pick it up with his mouth a few times, but he couldn't hold it in his mouth for more than a few seconds before dropping it.
- At 5:15 AM (LFT), Bill was seen again in the feeder, this time trying to hold what appeared to be a roughly square-shaped piece of paper in his mouth. Again, he couldn't keep it in his mouth for long. He tried to mess with it with his hands, but he accidentally shoved it under the bowl and couldn't get it out.
- Later on in the day, another square piece of paper, appearing to be from a package, appeared in the bowl. Bill was not seen during this time, but it is highly likely he was the one responsible for placing the paper in the bowl.
- September 18, 2024:
- Around 2:50 AM (LFT), Bill was seen trying to catch and eat a large bug, likely a cricket, that was inside the bowl. He tried to catch this bug for seven minutes and was ultimately unsuccessful, although he did come close to getting it quite a few times. He defeatedly ate some chicken snacks before leaving.
- Around 7:10 PM (LFT), Bill entered the feeder while Bob Jr. and Mack were hanging out inside. He entered carrying a large bug in his mouth; he then dropped this bug into the bowl.
- September 19, 2024: Around 11:15 PM (LFT), Bill entered the feeder after hearing kibble drop. He looked around for a few seconds, then began eating. More kibble was dropped while he ate. He exited the feeder shortly after. A few minutes later, Bill returned and placed a new treasure inside the bowl: a plastic bag filled with ants.
- September 22, 2024: At 2:52 AM (LFT), Bill was seen trying once again to catch a cricket that was inside the bowl. He gently pawed at it many times, and picked it up with his mouth, just to drop it back into the bowl. It appeared that Bill thought he was playing with the cricket; the cricket probably did not feel the same way. Eventually, he left the cricket, who was miraculously still alive (and apparently unhurt), alone, and sat toward the back of the feeder. When snacks were dropped, he ate the snacks while leaving the cricket, who was still in the bowl, alone.
October 2024
- October 24th, 2024: At 8:55 PM (LFT), Bill appeared in the feeder, right after Bob, their mother, left the feeder. They were soon seen imitating the calm soothing prescense of the great Brother Calm. They stayed in this stance for a long time, however, he was commonly distracted, looking outside the feeder.
