Tanuki

One of Japan's best known native animals is the Tanuki (also known as raccoon dog). It often appears in Japanese folklore and you can find Tanuki statues in all sorts of places, such as outside of ramen shops.

These statues usually shows the Tanuki with 8 symbols:
A large hat, a large smile, large eyes, a sake bottle, a book or a promissory note, a big belly, and, finally, a large scrotum. You might notice that the RatCat Tanuki does not have a large scrotum, or any scrotum at all. I tried to draw it, but...well...it looked both ridiculous and horrifying. 

Until tomorrow! =^0,,0^=
