Mr. Porcupine is a cat who appears at the Lucky 7-Eleven (Mr. Snacks) feeder. His name came from his appearance, notably the fur at his lower back which resembles quills.
His first appearance was at 2:51 PM EST on February 15th, 2024.
Behavior
Mr. Porcupine seems rather aloof, usually not spending much time at the feeder before leaving. He has been recorded staying longer than 10 minutes only once. He typically comes for one meal a day, either breakfast or dinner, and similar times. Occasionally, he will make an appearance for both. He can often be seen flinching at something off camera, or looking around at his surroundings. He is easily startled, bolting when he hears a loud noise such as a car, and will usually eat either until he runs out of snacks, or he is full. He seems very aware of his surroundings, not spending too long with his face in the feeder before looking around - possibly due to his halved field of vision, and anxiety due to a past injury. He seems rather happy despite his blind eye, and has quite an appetite for how small he is.
Appearance
Mr. Porcupine is a Maine Coon x Tabby mix with a scruffy front half and a very fluffy rear. He appears to be blind in his right eye. He is of average weight.
His eyes are a yellow colour. His ears are also usually slightly tilted back. He is a very dark shade of brown. he has distinctly quill-like rear, with a bright fluffy ring of grey hair standing up at the end. His fur appears to be thinner around his spine to the back of his head, his skin is therefore more visible.

Sightings
- February 15th, 2024: Mr. Porcupine was spotted on Mr. Snack's feeder; he immediately ate the remaining snacks before two minutes later more were dropped for him. He continued eating snacks whilst occasionally stepping out of the feeder to watch his surroundings. He must have been quite hungry as he munched his way through five donations of snacks over the course of ten minutes.
- March 7th, 2024: Mr. Porcupine was spotted at 12:20 AM, eating the snacks and waiting for more to drop for him. He also made an appearance at Mr. Snack's feeder at around 9:06 PM, eating for a short while before leaving.

- March 13th, 2024: Mr. Porcupine was sighted at 1:03 AM CST, where he ate snacks for a brief 4 minutes. He returned at 8:46 PM CST, watching his surroundings carefully and flinching when his first donation of food came in.
