Blanca

Blanca (あやしいねこ, Suspicious Cat) is a special character in the. Blanca is a white cat that asks the player to draw them a face. Blanca's name may come from the feminine Spanish word for "white", which is "blanco". It may also be a play on the word "blank", which refers to how her face is blank until the player draws one for her.

Blanca's gender is widely disputed, although officially Blanca is listed as female in all games outside of Japan, similar to Gracie. She has no defining masculine or feminine features, however her name implies her gender while at the same time she also wears the floral-patterned blossom shirt in all games except for. In and, she has a distinct lazy/jock voice, both of which are male personality types. It is likely she has a masculine voice to give her an air of mystery, due to her suspicious behavior.

In Animal Forest and Animal Crossing
Blanca will randomly appear when visiting other towns. The first time you meet her, Blanca will have no face, and they will ask you to draw them a new one. If the player meets Blanca again, they may have a different face from the one the player had drawn.

In Animal Crossing: Wild World
In, Blanca will appear if the "Mysterious Cat" mode is turned on (which can be by using the Telephone in the attic), and if the player has used Wi-Fi. They may appear randomly if the previous two conditions are met.

Sometimes, when Rover is at The Roost, he will ask you if you have seen "The Mysterious Cat". He will tell you he goes from town to town in search of it.

In Animal Crossing: City Folk
Blanca makes another appearance in. They may appear anywhere in the town as long as WiiConnect24 is enabled on both the Wii and the telephone in the attic. Like in the previous games, they will lack a face and ask the player to draw them one. Blanca's face can be drawn a maximum of two times before Blanca refuses any more in one day. This has opened up some abuse with some users, due to anyone being able to edit Blanca and their face can allow explicit drawings or words - depending on who is on the Friend List. If the player doesn't draw Blanca a face, Blanca will get angry and tell the player that they won't be able to see anything. However, Blanca will only appear with a blank face if they originate in your town. If you have received Blanca from a registered friend, then you will see the face that they drew, but the player may change or clear Blanca's face. Also, Blanca doesn't seem to know if you only add a small to a bunch of detail on their face, however, any of your registered friends may receive them the next day.

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf
Blanca appears again in as the event character for April Fools Day. Unlike past games, she will go to a villager's home and pretends to be that villager. The player is then left to decide which one is the original and which is the copy. If guessing correctly, they will receive a picture of the villager as a gift. If the player guesses all the villagers correctly, the player will receive Blanca's picture.
