If I'm going to transform Scrooge into a mouse, it stands to reason the three Ghosts must appear in animal form as well, and I'm fairly pleased how well this turned out. (BTW, I give the ghosts they/them pronouns because I believe Dickens meant them all to be sort of gender neutral - he refers to them as 'It' in the novel, but this sounds better.
Christmas Past, I went back and forth on white fox vs. white cat, and they still look a little foxy, but I settled on cat, because I wanted Mouse-Scrooge to be a bit nervous, even if they mean him well.
As for Christmas Present, it was great to return to this - https://www.furaffinity.net/view/25839915/ - and show them as a big, jolly bear.
And Yet to Come I decided had to be a silent but intimidating owl.
It occurs to me there's a bit of Don Bluth's style in my portrayal. It wasn't intentional, but I think when Mr. Ages and the Great Owl showed up as influence, the rest fell into place. I am getting to enjoy channeling Bluth' style, and I think A Christmas Carol done in Bluth's early style would have looked great.
Season's Greetings to all.

The only thing closer to perfection than the animal forms you chose for the Spirits is how you drew them, especially their expressions! I am particularly fond of the feline Ghost of Christmas Past; I keep thinking of them as a "her" thanks to their rather strong resemblance to Duchess from the Aristocats. Also, the owl's intimidating look is really cool. Seeing these makes me wish there really was a Don Bluth animated animal version of A Christmas Carol... I love this whole tf concept!
