The leftmost head seemed endlessly fascinated by the world around him, often dragging the long-suffering rightmost head along for the ride. They are enjoyable company for car rides, and take an avid interest in the local flora, as these photos will depict.<br /><br />They have not yet seen fit to give me their proper names, but perhaps a more permanent housing situation will change things.<br /><br />----<br /><br />Non-prose Info, handstitched, made from clean, reclaimed t-shirt knit fabric, embroidery floss, hypoallergenic polyfil stuffing, rummage sale buttons, and much time. Stands roughly 7 inches tall, with a heavy shaggy tail for balance.<br /><br />Not reccommended for children under 6 or those with chewing problems. Very lovely desktop buddy. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=31945463 Fri, 02 Oct 2009 22:26:21 -0400 30.00 http://ny-image0.etsy.com/il_155x125.93861592.jpg new 1 http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=7305733 <img src="http://ny-image1.etsy.com/il_155x125.12207465.jpg" /><br /> $16.00<br /> Bluroog, a scary little fellow found crawling up the side of my sewing station, I believe he was intent on eating some of my pins, or perhaps my sushi roll.
