* CatSmile: Gets a few, but not as much as Ivy.



* LittleBitBeastly: She has very little cat influence in her face, especially compared to Ivy, who is [[CatSmile very feline]] and also female. She even has tiny whiskers, while the rest of the cast have very long ones. One exception to this is her tail - it's big and luxuriously fluffy compared to the rest of the cast.

Mordecai's relatives, who appear in photographs and childhood flashbacks.

to:

Mordecai's relatives, who appear in photographs and childhood flashbacks. Their names are Tzipporah (otherwise known as "Zippy"), Rose, and Esther. The ones we don't see are named Isaac (Mordacai's dad) and Hannah (Mordacai's passed on sister).



*BigBrotherWorship: Of the two, Mordacai is closest to Rose.



* DeathOfAChild: Hannah (Mordecai's infant sister who appears in an old photograph) died in infancy, according to Tracy in a [[https://www.littledaisycafe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=681&p=901232#p901232 forum discussion.]]
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Or "family" in this case. As cold and unfeeling as he tends to be, Mordecai does think of his family fondly.

*DisappearedDad: Isaac, but we get more of a backstory, as Isaac suffered a stroke and lived in a nursing home for the rest of Mordacai's childhood. He departed by the time the comic takes place.
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Or "family" in this case. As cold and unfeeling as he tends to be, Mordecai does think of his family fondly. Because of this fondness, they don't know what he does for a living, however, Zippy has her suspicions.



*MeaningfulName: Rose is, certainly, sans doubt "rosy".



* StrongFamilyResemblance: An old family photograph shows that Tzipporah, Rose, and Esther are all tuxedo cats like Mordecai.

* FriendlyEnemy: With Mordecai. What little can be gleaned from flashbacks demonstrates they were on civil terms before Atlas' death, but afterwards (and after Mordecai kneecapped Viktor and defected) their relationship has grown frosty. However, she is still willing to have a civil conversation with him in her car even after the pig farmer incident, though the talk turns noticeably frosty when Mordecai upbraids her for keeping the speakeasy open and implies Mitzi has some responsibility in Atlas' death, and Mitzi in return needles him about his obssessive nature and what he did to Viktor.

* HypocriticalHumor: On occasion, mostly due to his lack of social skills.

A short with Rocky and he discussing the virtues of waffles vs pancakes has Rocky zone out when Mordecai hits him with a LogicBomb, leading [[NoSocialSkills Mordecai]] to comment 'yes, that was quite rude' when Rocky says he 'went somewhere for a second'.
