Research

I've researched some squirrels looking at their tails. My ball will behave a little bit like a squirrel so I think looking at their tails will help me understand my character. I've tried to look at their tails at different situations. Whether they are relaxed, scared or active. Squirrels use their tail to help them keep the balance. So the tail is constantly moving.

Here are some images of squirrels. I will use these images as a reference for the key poses of my character.
