Dr. Smudge is a new cat recently spotted at the feeder. He appears on the Happy Canteen and his first sighting was on February 23rd, 2024, at approximately 2:16 UTC+8.

Behavior

Dr. Smudge appears to be the curious sort, indicated by how he has been seen sniffing around the cat house and often looks around while eating. He also likes the catnip ball on the wall opposite of the feeder bowl.

Appearance

His coat is mostly white with orange patches. He has a distinct pattern on his upper back that resembles a splatter. His lower half and tail are orange while his hind legs are white. He has two small orange dots above his eyes as well.

  Dr. Smudge, Mr. Chicken, Mr. Egg and Ms. Warn on April 27th.

  April 27th, 2024: At around 5:00 PM (LFT) was seen in the feeder eating, getting snacks and kibble stuck on his mouth twice. He was subsequently pushed out of the way by Mr. Puke, staying with him for around 15 minutes. The encounter was peaceful. Later, Mr. Egg hesitantly entered the feeder to eat. Dr. Smudge did not interfere. Shortly after Mr. Egg's entrance, Mr. Chicken sniffed his butt repeatedly. At the same time, Ms. Warn snuck up from the top right. Dr. Smudge refused to leave, remaining the left (top view) corner of the feeder. Ms. Warn left at 5:27 PM. The trio of white-orange cats remained in a tense situation for another several minutes, Mr. Chicken eventually losing interest at 5:29 PM, but returning after half a minute and sniffing Dr. Smudge again. Kibble and snacks were then dispensed and Dr. Smudge returning to eating. Soon after, Mr. Chicken entered the feeder. What ensued was a very intense stand-off, Dr. Smudge growling and hissing at the other cat for several minutes. The reason for this is unknown. He was eventually scared off, sitting outside the feeder as the other cat began to eat. Eventually, at 5:36 PM, Dr. Smudge crawled back inside, stalking Mr. Chicken from behind as he ate. The rest of the encounter was tense but peaceful. Mr. Chicken stopped eating at 5:41 PM and left the feeder, leaving Dr. Smudge alone. He proceeded to lay down, exhausted by this event.
