Mr Mouse? not the real thing!

This week's art theme was a small creature, as in creatures great and small. I wasn't inspired by the suggested bat image so I found an image of a cute golden mouse. He doesn't look quite as cute in my pastel and coloured pencil drawing, I thought it looked like a story book mouse. Mr CR says it looks rather nervous. In any case when I looked properly at my reference image it said it was a RAT. It was fun to draw though. Now I need a 'great' creature for next week.
Thank you to everyone who made helpful 'Christmas' cactus suggestions. Another bud has appeared today!
