Cactus Cat

Of all the cryptids out there, one of my favorites is the semi-ridiculous Cactus Cat from the American southwest. According to travelling cowboys, cactus cats looked like either bobcats or cougars made out of cacti. Supposedly they would only come out at night, and when they did they would find a large cactus and slice it open with their claws to let the sap run out. Then the cats would come back later to drink the fermented juices and just kinda...wander around in a drunken state.
This character was a lot of fun to design and draw, and I'd definitely like to do more with him in the future.
