short description: Mutt/Muttyawn is a dilute, longhair chocolate calico. She's got nothing more than a stump for a tail, and her mother used to tell her that the extra toe on her right front paw was for catching mice.

appearance:
Her kittypet mother used to call her "Yarn" because that's what she looked like, while the male Housefolk - Dan - called her "Mutt" endearingly because of her extra toe and the fact that he docked her tail shortly after her birth. Unfortunately for her she has a bit of a speech impediment and pronounced it "yawn" when she introduced herself to the RiverClan border patrol. The winds and snow out where she grew up could get horribly frosty and she was blessed with an abundance of fur, and when she was younger (and her legs were significantly stumpier) she looked like a walkaway skein. That's why Betty (Dan's mate) fell in love with her and let her stay. As a kit she didn't see all of the extra fur as a blessing, and found it nearly impossible to keep her pelt clean due to the fact that she was always falling off the fence into the pig-pen or stepping on her own tangled mes as she ran.  Mutt/Muttyawn got her beautiful chocolate calico coloring from her father - a loner who hung around the barn in the back field for one too many nights a few seasons ago. 

personality:
Being the odd-looking cat that she is, Mutt had always found it easy to be comfortable in her own skin - except for her stupid extra toe. She's got a quirky personality, that would be described as the kind of crazy that's “Medicine Cat-esque.” Not unfriendly by any means, nor does she lack empathy. She merely has a few different wires in her brain than normal cats, and prefers to be alone. She’s full of fun little tidbits and facts that she heard while wandering the streets of the town near the farm as a loner. Mutt finds it easy to be optimistic and accepting of all different kinds of cats – or any animal for that matter. She’s quick to make acquaintances and gain others’ trust with her reliability and witty tongue. She’s never met another cat who doesn’t like her, she doesn’t think, and she tries her best to be of service to others while she invades their lives with her presence a little bit. Being so likable and liked makes her anxious and awkward, and she’s frequently worrying about everything.

history:

Her primary job as a house-cat, or rather, barn cat that was sometimes let in the house if it was too wet outside was to catch mice. Which she did and enjoyed thoroughly while she worked and lived with the housefolk on that farm. There was a nasty storm last leafbare that left her stranded and wandering for about two nights, until she came upon the nearby town. Mutt was permanently lost after that because she'd never been farther than the cows in the pasture behind the barn, and had no hope of finding her way home. Her mother was devastated and misses her so much, though she knows her daughter is strong enough to survive on her own in the world. Mutt had been wandering for awhile when she finally made it away from the town - not without having learned a lot about other cats' culture of course. She wandered until she came to a stream and fell asleep beside it. (That's currently where her story is.)
