Mr. Dot
Mr. Dot is a cat seen on the Happy Canteen (快乐大食堂) feeder characterized by the large dot on his forehead. He was was first seen at 12:27 CST(Chinese Standard Time), where he left after eating for 10 minutes straight, hardly showing his face. People in the chat of the YouTube "Hello Street Cat" restream dubbed him Mr. Shy.
Aside from his eponymous dot, Mr. Dot is unique in that despite almost certainly being female, he is referred to with he/him pronouns and the title of Mr.
Behavior
Mr. Dot’s mysterious presence seems to limit what observers can glean about him. He was once spotted being friendly with and eating kibble with Ms. Lag. On another occasion, he was attacked by Mr. Void, immediately panicking dramatically and fleeing after one strike.
Appearance
Mr. Dot is a rather strikingly-patterned tortoiseshell tabby cat with a round head. On the center of this big, round forehead is an orange dot that contrasts with his mostly gray noggin.
