Then there is the Woozy, a strange little animal "all squares and flat surfaces and edges", who isn't very important except for the three hairs at the end of his tail; his only talent is his fire-flashing eyes. Another unusual creation is Bungle, a glass cat, who is completely transparent and quite conceited because of her pink brains: "You can see 'em work."
