[Well, here's one interested taker, who happens to be holding a tiny Pumpkaboo in her arms in view of the camera.]

I'm...not very certain what goes into being a proper mascot, but if you please, you might consider my Ella? She's very sweet and good-natured, and likes very much to be held. I would imagine if you asked her to sit for a picture, she'd take very well to it, and also her disposition is most favorable toward others — even strangers. So I imagine she'd not pose any sort of problem being around people she didn't know.
