Mr. Swirly enjoys laying outside of the feeder. In his appearances, he can often be seen sitting or laying down to the left of the feeder (as seen through the front camera), either just relaxing or watching other cats come in and out. He sometimes likes to lounge inside the feeder as well. He enjoys eating, but isn't usually dead-set on doing so; when food drops, other cats often beat him to the bowl, and he doesn't seem to mind or push them out of the way. He will just go back to relaxing and watching them. | Mr. Swirly enjoys laying outside of the feeder.

When he does eat, he is seen to have peculiar eating behaviors, similar to [[Mr. Paw]]. Mr. Swirly will pick up food with his mouth, then take his head out of the bowl and chew his food close to the ground. This slows down Mr. Swirly's eating pace, but he is still determined to eat, even more than Mr. Paw; one time, during the night, he was seen slowly eating, piece by piece, for 50 minutes. | |||
Mr. Swirly does not seem to like [[Ms. Obsidian]], as he has left when she showed up to the feeder more than one, and he has hissed at her for sniffing his butt. | Mr. Swirly does not seem to like [[Ms. Obsidian]], as he has left when she showed up to the feeder more than one, and he has hissed at her for sniffing his butt. | ||
