Description
Me and Stella (my giant pouched rat) got woken up at 4:30 this morning by a fire drill. Well, she was pretty pissed at getting dragged downstairs for nothing, and she kind of flipped out in the elevator on the way back up. She was in a cat carrier, of course, so she couldn't really hurt anyone, but she was jamming her nose through the bars, biting stuff, and stamping her feet. There was this guy standing across from me with tattoos all over his arms--the sort of dude you wouldn't expect to be afraid of an innocent wee pouchie--but he didn't take his eyes off her. He was all scrunched up in the corner, all "oh no! It's a scary animal!", and Stella was all "Kill! Kill! Kill!", and I was all "ha, ha!". Yeah. Anyway. You'd have thought she was really the size I drew her in this cartoon, the way this dude was looking at her. She's really a cute little critter, though. Harmless. Well, she bites, but apart from THAT, she's harmless.Related content

This is lovely ... I guess what really got to me was the emotion portrayed by the little girl.

Repeating everyone elses comments... bloody cute story, and a very cute rat! Reading the story and looking at the picture I can see the whole night-gown and bleary-eyed thing... although having read previous comments, the cross-hatching does become more noticable, but it's not the end of the world (or even of the picture)...would just be a little better if it was more round (like the boots). And I, too, have really enjoyed the types of drawings you've been doing lately. I like the pen-and-ink.

Oops, I forgot to say why. Why because overlaping hatches flatten out the plane, which would work if not for Stella, who has more depth. Ooh, and I love the hair. I wish mine could do that.

Bwahahaha. Looks like it would make a great Christmas card, maby that's what you had intended for it. I do have one thing to point out though, hope you don't mind, but the cross-hatching on the coat isn't working too well.
