hmm, ferret... maybe. XD or a mongoose or something. XD even if oro isn't a snake this time around, having kabuto as a mongoose would be so deliciously ironic. Also, they're surprisingly cunning and vicious, for such cute animals.

Hehe. The kind of kitty doesn't matter much, I think, since they all end up human-sized, but the ear tufts are a bit too silly for Orochimaru XD;;;
