Behavior

Ms. Dale is very frequently seen sleeping or loafing in the feeder. She sometimes eats strangely, as she will scoop the food out of the bowl using her paws and eat it off the floor instead. She does not seem to like cats getting too close and will hiss at them.

Appearance

Ms. Dale is almost all orange apart from a small patch of white in the center of her back. She has a stump tail that seems to be white at the edge. Her nose is pink but is black around the edge.
