Other

Mrs. Dress, whose Chinese name is listed as "BaoBao" ("保保", lit. "Protect-Protect" or "Guardian-Guardian") on the Hello Street Cat app, is a cat that's almost always seen through the cameras of the Ten Thousand Kitties House (万猫屋) feeder.

She's listed as the "security guard" (保安) of her feeder - this is possibly why she is almost always visible sleeping on the feeder. Her nickname, Mrs. Dress, comes from the fact that she wears dresses due to scratching at her back out of stress.

Mrs. Dress is unique for being treated like absolute royalty compared to other cats, given things like dresses, treats, pampering and checkups by the caretaker. This is where her other nickname Mrs. Princess comes from. You may consider her as the queen of the feeder.

Though it may seem otherwise, Mrs. Dress is considered a stray as her caretaker has previously mentioned her inability to live alongside other cats, along with her preference for roaming around.

Behavior

Unlike most cats from other feeders on the app, the personality of Mrs. Dress is very well documented, thanks to her feeder's caretaker writing a detailed biography for her and her feeder's cats.

She's been noted to hate male cats with a passion as those that come tend to spray inside, with Mr. Edo being the sole exception as although he is greedy, he is considerably more polite than the others. However, what you may not believe in due to her massive size is that she's very picky and will only eat certain foods, most notably, she enjoys the wax gourd kibble the caretaker brings with them and dislikes steamed chicken breasts. She's also been said to only eat wet canned cat food and nothing else during her stay in the hospital.

Even though she seems to be very happy and pampered, she has displayed tendencies of throwing a tantrum if the caretaker pisses her off, particularly when the caretaker is trying to make her stay in the feeder when it rains.

Mrs. Dress is confirmed to have had a litter before being spayed afterwards. From then on, she would constantly itch at her back out of stress, causing the caretaker to put cat dresses on her. The caretaker also applies medication and gave her a tag to keep track of where she is at, especially since she has gone missing before.

She is not a house cat, however, as she likes her freedom, and has been seen laying around on concrete sidewalks nearby. She does do fan meet-ups with her Chinese fans and has been seen laying on their laps and receiving pats from them.

Appearance

Mrs. Dress is a bicolored orange and white tabby cat with white spotting from her chin to her stomach. She has large green eyes with a pink nose and white whiskers. She is confirmed to be a female cat. Her caretaker puts a new outfit on her every day, usually a dress, but a shirt or a sweater on rare occasions. She's recently been seen without her dresses due to the hot weather. Occasionally, she'll be seen wearing a bee cone whenever medicine is applied onto her wounds during the Caretaker's visits.

When "naked", she is the biggest and fattest cat in the feeder, rivaling the size of Brother Styles on many occasions. When she has her dresses on, she shrinks slightly to be smaller than Brother Styles in terms of fat. Her left ear is clipped.

February 2024

  • February 29, 2024: At around 04:00 PM (LFT), she was seen making biscuits and shoving her blanket into the feeder, before taking a nap. It is unknown why she did this, but people have speculated that it was to cover up the food for later consumption, or simply to get comfortable and sleep.

March 2024

  • March 02, 2024: At 09:56 PM (LFT), during her daily clothing change, she was seen with a ball of her own fur placed on her head by the caretaker. The caretaker also clipped two Chinese tassels by the side of her ears, though they were soon removed as Mrs. Dress seemed uncomfortable by their presence.
  • March 04, 2024: At 09:51 PM (LFT), Mrs. Dress was seen smacking Mr. Edo with her paw after witnessing him steal the wet food she'd been given by the caretaker.
  • March 07, 2024: At 09:52 PM (LFT), while on the caretaker's lap, Mrs. Dress was made to dance by the caretaker, she is mindless.
  • March 09, 2024: Despite being given a new dress the day before, she was seen "naked" for most of the day.
  • March 10, 2024: Due to his serial spraying, when Mr. Slam came in for a couple bites of kibble, Mrs. Dress body slammed him and chased him away.
  • March 11, 2024: Differing from her usual activities, she was outside all day long, sunbathing on the grass and having fun with the caretaker. After being changed into her next dress of the day at around 10:28 PM (LFT), the caretaker gave her a couple of smooches on the cheek. She was seen smiling blissfully and toppling her head to the side afterwards.
  • March 12, 2024: Mrs. Dress was also gone from her spot in the feeder for most of the day, and seen playing around on the grass through pictures her caretaker posted online. Because of her absence, Ms. Tux temporarily took over her spot for a couple of minutes at 08:50 PM (LFT).
  • March 13, 2024: Brother (Hair)Style, a cat who usually eats from the feeder's old location, was seen with the caretaker during her daily clothing change. Mrs. Dress seemed jealous from the affection Brother Style was receiving from the caretaker, and so decided to swat at him with her paw, pulling out strands of his fur. Even so, she decided to be nice afterwards and let Brother Style loaf with her on the caretaker's lap.
  • March 14, 2024: Mrs. Dress was caught meowing in front of the camera, maybe it's towards another cat? Maybe it's from her longing for the caretaker? No one is sure!
  • March 16, 2024: Mrs. Dress was feeling extraordinarily feisty that day and beat Mr. Edo out of the feeder twice. Not that he minded in the slightest, as he kept coming inside to eat anyways.
  • March 17, 2024: After the caretaker left, Mrs. Dress was seen rearranging her furniture, shoving most of her blankets and even her pillow towards the feeder. Because of the mess, the caretaker came by to fix it soon after. It's speculated that Mrs. Dress does this in order to lure the caretaker back to her feeder.
  • March 19, 2024: Once again, Mrs. Dress shoved her blanket and the like straight into the feeder bowl before proceeding to sleep on it. The caretaker took the bait and came back to arrange her lodging once more.
  • March 20, 2024: This day is significant as it is when Mrs. Dress first received her prized Pigllow, a pillow that is shaped and colored after a pig. She is seen sleeping on it for hours since and will do anything to not let it be used by any other cat.
  • March 24, 2024: When Mrs. Dress came home to Ms. Tux sleeping in her usual spot, she seemed quite unperturbed at first. It didn't take long before she decided that she would be the sole sleeper of the Ten Thousand Kitties House, and evicted Ms. Tux by bulldozing through her blankets and pillow.

  • June 2, 2024: Around 10:00PM (LFT) Mrs. Dress and caretakers were spotted cleaning up the dispenser. After some tidying, Mrs. Dress was put into a bee-autiful bumblebee cone and had her sores treated with some salve by the caretaker. To compensate for the miserable cone, Mrs. Dress was given lots of love and treats by the caretakers.
  • June 4,2024: Around 10:00PM (LFT) (again) Mrs. Dress was brought by her caretaker. She received a bounty of love, which included a little ear rubbing, and lap pets. She received the glorious bee cone for the rest of the time she was at her feeder.
  • June 17, 2024: Mrs. Dress is seen with her caretaker at the feeder at around 22:00 (LFT). She received the bee cone before getting some ointment put on her face wounds.

  • June 25, 2024: Mrs. Dress appeared at the feeder at around 16:55 (LFT). Her caretaker was nowhere to be seen, and her injuries were still present. She ate some kibble for a while before leaving a while later.

October 2024

  • October 1, 2024: Around 10:00 PM (LFT), Mrs. Dress blessed us with her presence yet again. She is seen wearing a beautiful pink ribbon. The caretaker is seen cleaning out her feeder while Mrs. Dress grooms herself well. She denies the temptation of falling food before chowing down. Her face wounds seem to have completely vanished! Horray for Mrs. Dress! At around 10:21 PM she hops out of her feeder before hopping back in at 10:23 PM. A cat shows up to munch on some extra food, most likely Mr. Edo or Mrs. Tux. Mrs. Dress doesn't seem to mind the prescence of the other cat. At around 10:27 PM, she leaves.
  • October 30th, 2024: Around 10:00 PM (LFT), Mrs. Dress was seen in the feeder with a snazzy new dress. Her caretaker was busy prepping her for the night ahead when suddenly, just as Mrs. Dress received her dress, she swung a fist at an unaware Ms. Tux, who was too busy eating her wet food, scaring her away. After that confrontation, Mrs. Dress calmed down, eventually laying in the caretakers lap for a while.
