Mack is a cat that appears at A Litter of Cats Who Love Each Other. Mack's name was chosen because it contains the letters MK; MK is the initials of Mystery Kitten, which is what Mack was called before he was named. As the nickname "Mystery Kitten" suggests, his parents are unknown. However, it is highly suspected he is a part of the Bob extended family due to his appearance and mannerisms. When he first started appearing at the feeder, he was an older kitten— older than the Boblets and Knightlings, but not yet grown. He has now almost grown into an adult cat. He was first sighted by the global community on August 1, 2024.
Behavior
When Mack first appeared at the feeder, he was an older kitten. It was clear he hadn't had much experience with the feeders before his appearance at Bob's, as the first couple times food was dropped, he got scared and ran out before coming back in. However, he quickly got used to this and soon became a frequent visitor to the feeder.
Mack is a pretty well-rounded cat. He hangs out by himself frequently, but is just as likely to be seen with other cats such as Bob's children Bill and Brutus. His ability to form a friendship with the Boblets is notable; longtime feeder visitors and probable Boblet cousins the Knightlings did not become friends with them, despite them (especially Dan) attempting to do so. He has also been seen with some of the adult cats, such as Bob and Serif. He has never been seen being hostile toward any cats.
When he's alone, Mack enjoys sleeping and hanging out in the feeder. He can sometimes be seen making very funny faces. At first, he happily ate both kinds of food, but soon developed a taste for snacks, and can lately be seen waiting in front of bowls filled with kibble for snacks.
Appearance
Mack's appearance is markedly different from the other orange cats that visit this feeder. By far the quickest way to tell him apart from the other cats is by looking at his back pattern. While the other orange cats at this feeder have a fully or almost fully orange back , Mack's back has white spotting throughout. The orange spotting on his back forms a very rough ring shape. The top of his head is orange, and the orange extends down his face, stopping at the bottom of his eyes. He has two bold, roughly oval-shaped orange patches on his face: one right under his left eye, and one on the right side of his nose. His chest, legs, paws and underside are fully white. His tail is orange.
