Ms. Drumstick is a tortoiseshell cat first spotted March 13, 2024, 08:29 AM (LFT). Although Ms. Drumstick may be more accurately described as "Common", as seen by her many appearances on April 01, her times of stay are short enough to rarely catch her being at the feeder, hence the current "Rare" classification. She was mistakenly thought to be two different cats for a time, Ms. Drumstick and Ms. Meteor, but was found to be just Ms. Drumstick.
Behavior
Ms. Drumstick appears to be rather cautious — which could be judged from her not staying at the feeder for more than a few minutes on average — and she can rather quickly turn to skittish behavior. Going from sitting down and enjoying her food, to immediately turning her attention to the outside, before usually quickly bolting out after spending some time standing towards the entrance.
Appearance
Ms. Drumstick is a tortoiseshell cat and can be most easily distinguished by the marking on their face that looks similar to a drumstick, hence the name Ms. Drumstick. She can also be identified by the TNR notch on her right ear.
Relation to Ms. Note
It's hypothesized that Ms. Note and Ms. Drumstick are siblings, or are related in some fashion.
For example, Ms. Drumstick can easily be confused with Ms. Note due to them both having a right-ear notch, and the tan marking that goes down both their faces; but Ms. Drumstick's marking is notably thicker, and also shaped like a drumstick rather than a musical note. Ms. Drumstick also has significantly more brown in her coat than Ms. Note.
They're both skittish and don't remain on camera long, but they both often are seen arriving at the feeder in very close time spans, though never together, at least not from observed sightings.
