Ms. Opera
Ms. Opera is a common visitor at Baldie Carrot, the Cats' Protector feeder. Ms. Opera was only discovered after many sightings at the feeder and was eventually named on June 15. Ms. Opera's names stem from Phantom of the Opera because of her distinct facial markings, almost like the masks seen in the productions.
Behavior
Ms. Opera's behavior is mostly unknown, but she appears to be friendly and calm, as when a muscovy duck attacked her while at the feeder she merely leaped away without seeming particularly frightened.
Appearance
Ms. Opera has a mainly orange and black mixed coat, with patches of white on her paws, belly, and neck. The most defining part of Ms. Opera's appearance is her half-black and half-orange face. Other traits to look for could be her white back legs, black tipped ears, or the black spot on the lower back. Ms. Opera can sometimes look different depending on the angle, but it is the same cat.
