"Eye-watering sigils occasionally form in his fur. Writes impassioned letters to the press. Enjoys a belly rub."[1]

The Corresponding Ocelot is a spotted feline that is capable of speaking human languages.[2] It has a passion for journalism,[2] and its writings can impress even the likes of Mr Huffam.[3] Occasionally, sigils of the Correspondence may appear on its fur based on its mood and experiences.[2] For example, petting the Ocelot may form the sigil for "an exchange that is both monstrous and scrupulously honest."[4]
