Katze
Cat · he / him · Also known as Kater · Mieze · Stubentiger
Captain Mailman calls him Katze, which means cat in German. On other days he answers to Kater, Mieze, or Stubentiger—provided the person speaking is carrying a toy. This black-and-white postal pirate loves feather ribbons, catnip, and stealing the one envelope the captain is about to deliver. He considers every satchel a bed and every urgent letter a personal invitation.
