I am now a Squirrel!
13 years ago
Yep!
Though I didn't make this one. ;] Bought a pre-made squirrel from someone who had a bit of buyer's remorse. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8031111/ This girl is now mine! :'D Got her in the mail yesterday and she's even cuter in person~ She's got little buck teeth, four gauges (a peace sign, star, earth, and an acorn~), a nose stud, and some adorable bangs!
Now comes the hard part: coming up with a design for the rest of her, a name, and a personality.
I actually had an idea of having her tail-less, but because tails are so important to squirrels, she'd be busy convincing people, other suiters, and even random objects to be her new tail. I'm a little iffy on the idea (cute in my head but I'm not sure if it'd work in practice) so I'd like some ideas. If that were to be her thing she'd be a talking suit. If not she'll be silent and just adorable (and I'll need to figure out how to make her a tail without wire armatures and such; she'd be the type to use her tail as a prop).

A few notes with Delrin. If you heat it up too much, when it cools it will become brittle and break. It'll take a bit of practice to get it right. You can get it a industrial plastic stores, and it comes in long rods, perfect for shaping into a tail skeleton. Also, since it's polymerized formaldehyde, you should wear a mask when heating it, but otherwise it's safe to handle.
I'll have to toss around my ideas a little more. I'm becoming more and more attached to the tailless idea, though. XD I might have to take that sort of character to a con as a trial run of how that sort of interaction would work. :0 I could always give her a tail later.

Wait, doesn't your mate have a cat suit?? Maybe make the other half an empty tube of fur, and he can run around taunting you with it XD
Just wanted to note, I don't keep my kitties outside :P It was my parents. My cats only fantasize about the squirrels.
Could she pass as a chipmunk? Maybe with a big long-sleeve shirt with an "A" on the front, and a ball cap? A for Acorn. Yeah that could work :)
