have you ever seen a opossum's tail

??? yes??? i had to look up pictures of opossums to make sure this friend here actually looked like one
i wanted them to have a big huge tail so i gave them one
it's also why their ears are down instead of up...because i wanted that to be a thing
i know what opossums look like i just wanted to put things i like onto my character??? sorry?????

it looks more like a dumbo rat with opossum colors

edit:// except the ears. opossums have black, bare ears with white freckling at the ends. this has rat ears.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
