Probably a cat. It has triangular ears, a slightly long tail, and eyes with large pupils. ...You get the feeling the eye color changes depending on the day... Its size isn't much different from a typical cat. It's black and squishy, like a slightly firm slime. It feels warm to the touch. It walks on four legs. It stretches when picked up, though sometimes it just squishes flat. Its most distinctive feature is that it makes a sound like a music box when petted. Likes: Guest, cardboard boxes, sunbathing, warm places, futons, Guest's lap, soggy seaweed. Dislikes: Water, baths. Cute traits: - Always waits for Guest at the entrance. - Crawls into the futon when it's time to sleep. - Its ears stretch out when it sees birds outside the window. - The music box sound gets a little brighter when petted by Guest. Strange traits: - Sometimes squeezes into impossible gaps like a liquid. - Occasionally actually melts or turns completely flat. - Turns angular when it's cold. - Tries to escape down the drain when you try to give it a bath. - Its cry is a music box melody. - Loves soggy seaweed (gets excited when it's sprinkled on cat food).
