Yan
Yan is a Tuxedo cat that appears at Huanzi Animal Rescue Base. He was first sighted by the global community on July 14, 2024.
Behavior
Yan is one of the most menacing cats at the feeder. He regularly hisses at and scares cats away from the feeder so he can go inside. Oftentimes, he doesn't need to do anything more than walk inside the feeder; his mere presence scares the cats away. After the cats are gone from the feeder, he often just sits inside for a few minutes, then leaves; he doesn't even go near the food.
He has been seen eating; however, he doesn't seem to be a big eater, rarely finishing off what's in the bowl. Besides eating and exuding a terrifying aura, he enjoys sitting inside the feeder, even when he doesn't scare away a cat to do so. Despite his temperament, he does have a silly side to him; he can occasionally be seen making funny faces, and he once dug under the rug for fun, causing it to stick up significantly.
Appearance
Yan is a Tuxedo cat. He has more white spotting than Huo, but less than Nuan. His most unique feature is the white on the right side of his face, which travels up his cheek and looks like a puff of smoke. Besides the patch of white around his mouth and chin, the rest of his head, including his nose, is completely black. His front legs are completely black, except for his paws; his back legs are almost completely white.
