trying a sig

I just really really wanted to try out my sig.
(In theory, a mongoose, not a large squirrel.)

Your theory is probably correct.

I have credited your Mongoose as a Mongoose. It could not be a large 
squirrel if you compare it with these squirrels :-)

I am never very sure that the last two characters are actually 
squirrels although there seems to be a hint of bushy tails.

They appeared in Chevalier's story about the Mouse King so I think 
these two are really Mouses not squirrels :-(

The top one is Reepicheep (by me) from the Chronicles of Narnia,
the lower one is a female rat I drew along similar lines (not
that the difference in species is very visible). 

The bushy-tailness of Reepicheep goes away if you realize that
he's wearing a feather on his head, and that isn't the top curve
of a squirrel-like tail.

Here's a squirrel I did, for comparison. I've never been happy
with it, tho:

              __
              \ `-.
     __        )   \
  .-'  `-._.--'    |
 /               _/
|    ___     __-'. .
|   '   `---<___/|/|
|     _          o  )
|      \   /  ,     |
\  `,   )  \  \-`-._|
 `-/   /---'>_/_\
 '-`-__`-. '"   "
       ""


Reepicheep is actually missing a line.. lets see...

     __
  ,-'' `-.
 /\\`    _\ ,      
|\\     (_\/|      
 `   /  /-'o `-.

    | (  (_/(   /_,
   /' /\_,-'|`-'/  
  |  |_.--._|/-'   
  |  |  ,  /)`     
  \\_|  ,) ||      
   `--\ |_//       
       |' |__,
      /|\   `
