Mr. Ink is a regular visitor at the Duck Feeder. He was named on March 14, 2024, after his brown-tipped tail which looks like it was dipped in ink. As of around August 2024, Mr. Ink and Ms. Fierce are confirmed to be a romantic couple. They can sometimes be seen together.

Behavior

Mr. Ink seems to be quite a mellow cat, amiable and discreet. When a cat is aggressive towards him, he is not aggressive back. He does not seem to like humans, as when the caretaker came around he zoomed away with incredible speed.

Appearance

Mr. Ink is a brown tabby with a white chin. He has short fur and cream-colored markings near his face.

He looks incredibly similar to Ms. Rattle, and is often confused with her. As seen in the image below, Ms. Rattle has a lighter fur color, and her forehead markings are less pronounced. Mr. Ink's fur, on the other hand, is darker and his face markings are a lot more noticeable.
