Ms. Charlie
Ms. Charlie is a calico cat at Happy Canteen whose name was derived from the zigzag pattern in her coat, resembling the zigzag pattern in Charlie Brown's shirt. She was first sighted on April 4, 2024, although recording of her on the app dated back to as early as December 2023[1].
Behavior
Ms. Charlie's will focus on eating when she arrives at the feeder. She's also seen accompanying Ms. Paint, although she seldom notices her companion and will just eat. When done eating, Ms. Charlie leaves Ms. Paint alone, giving her a private space to eat. Sometimes Ms. Charlie is kind enough to wait for her to finish the meal. Their relationship is yet to be known.
Appearance
Ms. Charlie can be identified by the unique zigzag pattern on her back, as well as her iconic white face arrow. Her right ear has been cut in a triangle shape to signify TNR.
