Mr. Bentley is a common visitor at the Duck Feeder. He was named on June 16 after the car from the TV show Good Omens due to his sleek black fur and quick reaction time.
As of August 1, 2024, Mr. Bentley is at the vet to be neutered.
Behavior
Mr. Bentley is skittish around others (GIF)
Mr. Bentley can be skittish, but also curious. Often, he sniffs around the feeder, making for some silly images when he sniffs the camera. He is sometimes frightened by food dispensing. In the first few weeks after his first appearance, Mr. Bentley showed aggression towards other cats. Recently, he has started being more friendly and will approach others while they eat to sniff at them.
Mr. Bentley does not like humans and takes extra precautions to avoid them.

When eating, he will sometimes paw at his food to bring it closer to him. On one occasion, he removed a leaf from the feeder with his paw, only for it to end up back in the feeder where he nearly ate it.
Appearance
Mr. Bentley is fully black and could be mistaken for any other black cat. However, currently, no other fully black cats have been recorded at the Duck Feeder. He has sleek fur and fluffy cheeks.

July 31, 2024: At 11:31 PM (LFT), Mr. Bentley came to the feeder, unknowing that the Mechanical Trap Room had been set for him. He spent a few wary minutes eating before the door was closed at 11:41 PM. He struggled around in pure fear, scratching at the walls and trying everything to make an escape, but failed. At 11:48 PM, Mr. Simba approached and fit his paws through the gaps to try and offer Mr. Bentley some comfort. He seemed to finally calm down at around 12:09 AM, although was panting in stress and was still incredibly scared. He meowed loudly, something that he had never been recorded to do. At 12:24 AM, they attempted to get Mr. Bentley inside the bag. After much struggle poking him with a stick and trying to force him inside the bag, they eventually maneuvered him inside at 12:34 AM.
