Radical Man is one of several orange and white cats that appear at Huanzi Animal Rescue Base. His name comes from a radical[1], a component of Chinese characters, that translates in English to "Radical Man[2]". The radical, 人 (spelled "rén" in Pinyin), looks like the white streaks that appear on Radical Man's face. Radical Man was first sighted by the global community on July 14, 2024.
Behavior
Despite his name, Radical Man is a very relaxed cat. He can often be seen lounging in or near the feeder for long periods of time. When he lays in the feeder, he often takes up most of the space in the feeder, requiring cats who want to eat to stand on the side of the feeder and reach up to the bowl from there. Radical Man can relax in the feeder for a very long time. When he wants food, but there isn't any, he is very patient and will wait for a long while before giving up on the prospect of food. Radical Man has not been seen having problems with any other cats at the feeder.
Appearance
Radical Man is an orange and white cat. He looks similar in many ways to other orange and white cats like Mr. Socks and Mr. Swirly. His main defining feature is the two intersecting white streaks on his face that look the Chinese radical 人. Beyond this, there is not much that separates him from other similar-looking cats at the feeder. His back is fully orange with tabby stripes. On one side, the separation between his orange and white fur is nearly a straight line; on the other side, the line between them is very wavy. His paws are white, and the white coloration only extends up a little past his paws.

- At 11:37 AM (LFT), Radical Man entered the feeder and laid down, taking up much of the space in the feeder. Over the course of the next hour, many cats came to eat, having to choose between trying to stand in the feeder or eating from the bowl while standing off to the side.

- July 22, 2024: At 11:01 PM (LFT), Radical Man showed up to the feeder while Azula was eating the food that was dropped for her. He looked inside the feeder, but Azula gave him a stern look, so he backed off a little bit. When Azula left a minute later, he entered the feeder and began eating. At 11:04, a tux scared him out of the feeder.
September 2024
- September 19, 2024: At 4:59 AM (LFT), Radical Man was seen at Huanzi 2, looking inside the empty bowl. Kibble was soon dropped, and after having a quick stretch, Radical Man began eating. Almost immediately after he began, Mr. Timbit and another cat came and sat inside the feeder, watching him eat. Radical Man then started eating very slowly, appearing to be stalling. At 5:02, Radical Man looked outside the feeder, into the distance, then ran out, knocking into Mr. Timbit in the process.
