    I’ve seen versions of this animal a few times and always wondered what it’s supposed to be? Looks lemury, monkey ish, red panda adjacent. What is this lil guy? This one has a peach on his back I believe. 9150D627-AA5C-4AF0-910B-D91D6EE3C4F0.jpeg 27340872-3DFF-4A53-9DA0-11A95F6D2BCB.jpeg

    Auspicious object, wishing the owner a long life and probably gifted on the year of the rat, hence the rat/peach pair.

    So you’ve gone and brought logic into it now! It’s one odd looking rat but I guess I have to accept it.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    It's the cutest rat ever! Maybe why it was hard to accept at first.
