The Obsolete Man
Senior HTF Member
Hotels are expensive. Is it ever explained why he just can't find an apartment? Does he think the cat wouldn't find him? By the way, does the cat ever get a name?
Cat is "Cat".
Though he does play a big role in the show's mythology.
The issue of whether Cat can find him or not is unambiguously answered more than once... perhaps by the time you've watched more episodes and read this.
