Cute little pet. It's from space too. Ohh, and it looks squirrely!

... I dunno. It's cute, but I don't want one. I don't have the space, anyways. XD

I like how it's collar charm changes with the color, though.

It's... CUTE! XD I don't like the fur over the eyes (except on marsh), though.

I love how the collar has a different charm for each colour. (Ice cream for cream? That's so clever!)

It kind of reminds me of the aisha, though, with the whole pet from space with a colllar thing.

I can't wait to see bloodred/hydrus. EBILSQUIRRLY.

And the gold is shiny!

Yeah, while I like this, I don't like it enough to get one. xD I'm too attached to my current pets to change one of 'em.

Oh, it's cute! Not buying-a-mystical-plushie cute, but definitely cute. I like the custom collars with each collar - the flower for lilac, moon for twilight, etc.

The head bugs me - it's at a different angle than the rest of the body. Redraw colours would fix that, though.

I didn't see a new pet coming - there's so much work for the artists (darkness plot, avatar clothing, torrent revamp, demi revamp) already. It is cute, though, and I don't feel the need to squish it with something large and heavy, which is saying something. ;P

Too bad I have no space, I'm looking forward to the redraw colours!

We weren't really planning on a new pet color, but it's Arbor's birthday tomorrow, and this pet has been in the artist directory for literally months.

So, we decided to throw it up for her. ;)

Maybe this space animal is part of the plot?

EDIT: Denied

Yes, I'm looking forward to redraws too, because with a bit of tweaking this could be great.

I dislike the style of eyes with no black or at least devently dark pupil, it makes anything look vacant, and the stripe coming up to the chin serves to make it seem chinless and adds to the gormless effect. Overall I'd like to have seen the face sleeker and the eyes with a bit more life.

I love the body and ears, and the fact that it's a skwiwwel, and I'm really hoping one of the redraws turns out to be a must have. Right now it's cute but not for me.

Give it a shot of espresso and it could end up like Hammy from Over the Hedge. xDD

When I first saw it, I thought it was a VERY redrawn pherret.

Oh, and I don't like the pinkeh nose.

I would absolutely LOVE the pet without the bangs. That makes it look too humanish to me.

Good thing I don't like it though, no space to waste on one, hah

Cute, nice art, collars are neat, great.

But sweet jebus, give the Tutani a redraw. New pets are fine, but only if the existing pets don't get neglected. And I know the artist that designed the pet is responsible for its redraws (well not know, but Aqua seems responsible for all the Endeavor/Illumis colours, so) and maybe the Tutani's artist is busy with other things, but...

...please. Just one redraw. Any redraw. ;_;

Scribble doesn't count.

This is a whole lot of elements I find variously cute, interesting or charming, jammed together to create a pet that does nothing for me at all. I can look at almost any given part of this pet and like it, but when I lean back and look at the whole image ... nothing. One of the issues I'm having is that the head seems seriously lopsided -- the viewer's right side of it appears significantly 'longer', horizontally, than the left. I'm not sure if this is an optical illusion created by the slightly different positions of the ears and the presence of the tail behind the left cheek, or if there are some actual anatomy problems going on.

Edit: Wow, I am a total freaking downer today, aren't I?

Gah. I love the fur texture in the tail. Love love love it. Did not see this coming either. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing a Reborn version of this - huge squirrely firey tail!

The Illumis and Celinox could use some love, as well.

Dunno, Subeta already has at least two "Help! Help! My butt's on fire!" Reborn pets, the Aerie and the Montre. I don't really like the look. :-)

It is cute, I love how collar and the ears and I totally love the tail. I could just snuggle with that tail. I'm not going to run out and get one though. Which is quiet good cause there are quiet a few pets I"m wanting already. ^_^" It's a good addition to the line up though. I can't wait to see what its redraws look like.
