The face only works if your "4" is closed.  Closed 4s seem to be much
more common than open 4s.  I couldn't find an X font with an open 4.

Hmm.  Do you mean the position is too square, or the shape is too
square?  Maybe a bit of both.

Reality check time.  A friend saw this picture and without being told
what it was, he said, "what is it, a dog?"

Anyway.  here are a few variants on the leg structure.

1   |\      _,,,,--,,_
2   /,`.-'`'    -,  \-;,
3  |,4-  ) ),,__ ,\ (  ;;
4 '---''(.'--'  `-'`.)`'

1   |\      _,,,,--,,_
2   /,`.-'`'    -,  ;-;,
3  |,4-  ) ),,__ ) /;  ;;
4 '---''(.'--'  (.'`.) `'

1   |\      _,,,--,,_  ,;
2   /,`.-'`'   -,  ;-;;'
3  |,4-  ) )-,_ ) /;
4 '---''(_/--' (_/\_)

1   |\      _,,,--,,_  ,)
2   /,`.-'`'   -,  ;-;;'
3  |,4-  ) )-,_ ) /\
4 '---''(_/--' (_/-'

1   |\      _,,,---,,_
2   /,`.-'`'    -.  ;-;;,_
3  |,4-  ) )-,_. ,\ (  `'-'
4 '---''(_/--'  `-'\_)

Well, I think the last one is marginally better than the original, but
the legs still aren't quite right.

Enough playing with kittens. (mrreeow?)  Time to try something else..
