Cat-Snake

Ta-daaaa!  This is for the January Autodesk Sketchbook Hero Challenge, which is to design your perfect pet.  I have a kitty that I love a ton, so what could be any better than that?  Well, I love snakes as well, but can't have one since my hubby doesn't like reptiles, and I'd be afraid of a cat and snake eating each other.  Why not smish the two creatures into one?  Best of both worlds!  The Cat-Snake can purr like a regular cat, has the fun rough tongue, a normal set of cat teeth and then a second row of snake teeth (because snakes have two sets of teeth).  It can slither, or run/slither.  The coat pattern is based off a Red-tailed Boa Constrictor, so this pet isn't venomous.  It can coil up in a pile next to you or curl around your neck (a thing I love when snakes do it).  Cuddly, curious, and playful.  The perfect companion for an animal lover torn between reptiles and mammals.

You could also get a hairless version that would just have scales, if you're allergic to cats or prefer scales to fur.

Drawn and colored in Autodesk Sketchbook Pro.  This is my very first ever Autodesk Sketchbook drawing.  I'm falling it love with that program.
