Physical Appearance
Sardines is a rat of average size, but what sets him apart is his distinctive attire and accessories. He is often seen wearing a tiny, battered top hat, which adds to his theatrical persona. His fur is a mix of gray and brown, typical of a city rat, but his most notable feature is the pair of tap shoes he wears, which click and clack as he moves. These shoes are a bit oversized, giving him a slightly comical appearance as he dances. His whiskers are long and expressive, twitching in time with his movements, and his eyes are bright and full of mischief, reflecting his lively and adventurous spirit.
