Description This funny squirrel-raccoon thing is apparently called a tanooki (tanuki)?  I think this particular one is from some manga.  My brother wanted one and since his birthday is coming up, I figured it was a good time to make it.  Took me several hours to finish.. the arms, feet, and dark brown markings are needle felted.  Hope you guys like him!

Aww, its Pochi! Pochi sort of reminds me of Pabu from the Legend of Korra in the way that its sort of a mix. Pabu looks like a red panda/ferret mix, while Pochi looks like a Tanuki/Squirrel mix. Cute either way I like the felted details.

Yes, that's the one!  I keep forgetting the name since I'm not familiar with it.  My brother just sent me a picture and ordered me to make it for him  I do want to make Pabu someday (maybe soon)!  He is just adorable.  And I appreciate the reference photo; learn new things everyday

I hadn't even heard of Pabu until someone mentioned it ages ago. They are both pretty cute I'm always saving reference photos when I come across them. While looking up North American Raccoons I stumbled upon some Racoon Dog photos. Its pretty neat to discover new animals like that. I look forward to seeing Pabu if you make him :3
