THANK YOU! Everyone else is saying it's cute. But it's not, it's horrifying! The ragged fluff, the huge soulless dead eyes and face-gouging claws!

A nightmare, in physical form.

That's what makes it so endearing, love. Just accept the fact that it has a grip on your heart. (In whatever way that may be..)

Someone said you looked liked one of those owls.

[–]Time-Traveller 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Exactly. I had the look before it was cool, and now the owls have ruined it.

Even though it seems this is a toy, I hate baby owls. They're slightly less creepy when they're older, unless they're barn owls. They can go fuck themselves.

So claws, solid black eyes, and psycho hair are cute? This thing is what nightmares are made of.

Definitely a toy. Here's the site: http://www.melisas-bears.com/Nascha.html

I remember looking a while back at the ebay links (none live at the moment it seems). Her toys were on at several hundred dollars each (mostly custom made to order).

Very cool though. Check out some of her others here.

Thank you for this information. I've kept Nacha's picture for a long time because I think she's so cute. I'm sure someone bought her long ago. Sigh.

[–]magikarp313 0 points1 point ago

Exactly, only the method differs. It's more pecking rather than scratching, but your eyes are still the general target.

I maintained my composure even under the adorable onslaught of those giant eyes.

But I lost it at the teeny-tiny talons.

[–]ErrantWhimsy 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Unfortunately, it isn't real. Baby altricial birds are actually hideous as a rule.

If you want real, adorable tiny owls, look up Saw-Whet Owls or Screech Owls. I got to do some research with the former, they are feisty little buggers.

[–]StupidButHonest 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I just can't imagine them as being sharp in any way. I keep thinking, "It is far too little to have anything other than rubber talons at this stage in life." But I know those are the talons of a born killer.

I WANT her! How can anyone think she's anything but absolutely adorable? She's been my desktop picture off and on for a year or more, but I never knew what she was. I thought she was real but couldn't identify the species. She sold for around $,1000.
