Mr. Virtue is a frequent visitor at the Duck Feeder. He was sighted many times before he was named on March 10th, but his appearance on that day was what made him stand out. He was seen sadly waiting in front of the empty feeder for 5 minutes, before leaving right after someone fed him. He waited very patiently, giving him his name (due to the phrase "patience is a virtue".) His name also comes from the black spot on his back that resembles a heart.
As of around July, Mr. Virtue has developed a tooth condition which makes it painful for him to eat. Sometimes, he may yowl in pain and quickly run away while eating. The Caretaker is aware of his condition.
Behavior
Mr. Virtue may be patient in retrieving food, but not so much with other cats. He is very wary of them and has attacked them on occasion. He seems friendly with humans, as when the caretaker came around he happily approached and was given food by them.
He likes to watch others eat, be it cats, ducks, chickens, dogs, and even humans, not interested in the food but instead just keeping a watchful eye.
Appearance
Mr. Virtue can be seen quite often at the Duck Feeder, usually waiting in front of the feeder for kibble. Sometimes he looks quite sad while he's waiting. He is white, with black spots near his rear and one on his head. He has one big, black spot on his butt resembling a heart.

Sightings
March 2024
- March 10, 2024: Mr. Virtue was seen at 09:59 AM (LFT), where he waited for 5 minutes in front of an empty feeder. Eventually a portion of kibble was donated, but he gave it a sniff and left. He returned at 11:55 AM (LFT) and again at 12:37 PM (LFT), both times not looking as sad as he had before, eating some kibble before leaving.
- March 11, 2024:
- Mr. Virtue was spotted at 12:39 AM (LFT), where he did not have to wait because there was a full feeder waiting for him. He ate kibble for a short while. He was seen eating again at 02:34 PM (LFT). He, again, didn't have to wait, as the feeder was full.

June 2024
- June 15, 2024: Mr. Virtue was seen running away and coming back to eat multiple times between 2:58 and 3:06 PM (LFT). This is possibly because a dog was seen eating from the feeder a few minutes prior.
- June 17, 2024: At 11:26 PM, Mr. Virtue slowly approached Mr. Blotch and Ms. Blanket who were sitting at the feeder. He was scared and kept approaching and retreating, trying to eat but intimidated by the 2 cats. At 11:29 PM, he decided the food wasn't worth the risk and left.
- June 19, 2024:At 6:21 PM, Mr. Virtue made a small stop to eat at the feeder. Soon after, he and Mr. Simba could be seen running around together. There was no growling or meowing, which made it seem like they were playing.

- June 23, 2024:Mr. Virtue visited multiple times throughout the night. He was scared off by the ducks who were regular visitors around that time but kept coming back. At one point, he attacked Ms. Blanket who had walked into the feeder while Mr. Virtue was eating.

July 2024
- July 4, 2024: At 8:44 AM (LFT), Mr. Virtue arrived at the feeder. He began to eat but yowled out in pain and quickly spat out his food before running away. This is the first documented sighting of his tooth condition.
- July 7, 2024: At 6:36 AM (LFT), Mr. Virtue came to the feeder. There was no food in the bowl, so he began waiting patiently. A bug flew past him which he swatted at. He eventually left, only to return at 6:56 AM. Unfortunately, his teeth hurt him as he ate which made him bark in pain and quickly ran away.
- July 15, 2024: At 4:48 AM (LFT), Mr. Virtue arrived at the feeder to eat. A short while later, his teeth appeared to be sore again as he quickly stopped eating and walked away.
(Not every cat sighting is documented.)
