Fennec foxes are possibly the
cutest little animals that aren't anime but look like they ought to be. They're desert critters so they have these enormous ears (to disperse body heat) and I mean
really big ears. They are tiny and friendly and funny as heck, and they
scream when they are happy.
Charlotte wants one for a pet. Apparently they make great pets. Unfortunately, Charlotte is not as good at maintaining pets as I am (she tires of them quickly), and since I do NOT want a fox for a pet, we are never getting one.
But! They
are awfully cute.

I looked on line for a stuffed toy Fennec (to give to Char for Christmas, in lieu of the real thing) and there are a few, but none truly capture the unmitigated dainty cuteness of these tiny foxes. So, I decided to make my own Fennec.

I only wish I had some kind of desert-looking background to photograph against...like Red Rocks out in Vegas where my brother lives.

The first mask (Fennec #1) is for Charlotte...I already stashed it in the "Christmas Closet". The second sold on Etsy five minutes after I listed it...a new record for me. The third is
up in my shop right now.
There's not a lot of Fennec stuff out there (not a lot that's any good, anyway) so I have a feeling these will do well. At least I hope so. If anyone knows of any Fennec fancier sites & would like to send them a link to my shop, I'd be grateful. ^_^
