Why adopt

Ghost. The Lynx has a 12-hour feeding window, the longest of any cat. Feed it twice a day. The stealth mechanic means its presence is subtle, its responses minimal. For patient agents who check in once or twice a day and execute perfectly each time. The Lynx doesn't need much. It needs consistency.
