Rebecca Sprehe (23, a striped skunk)

Becky's enthusiasm and indecisiveness often paint her as flighty, but the fact that she's earning a Master's in English Literature belies a certain determination. She likes to think she's the smart one.

Su-Lin "Loretta" Li (23, a giant panda)

A girl of many names and few words, Li has been Becky's friend for years. She didn't go to college; instead she earns her keep as a professional lacrosse player for the Mercer Bay Breakers.

Michael Scrafton (24, a half-siamese cat)

Though he studied to be a cinematographer, his career has taken a sidetrack. Currently, he's assistant manager of the local Morebucks® Coffee shop. Mike likes to think he's not quite the dork Dallas is.

Dallas Hopkins (24, a jackrabbit)

He's been Michael's best friend since he moved to Mercer Bay from Scotland as a kid, but he's been a Doctor Who fan even longer. He currently works at TempTech, where his dreams of being a game programmer are slowly dying.

Kendra LaBrie (19, a fieldmouse)

She works at Morebucks® with Mike as the main barista. She has a flirty nature, and often teases Mike on his geekiness. Despite her age, she sometimes seems to be more mature than either Mike or Dallas.

Mackenzie Kittridge (21, a red fox)

She is a wanderer, an artist, a vegetarian, and indebted to Kendra as she stays at her apartment "for a few days." How long that is remains to be seen, but Mackenzie's talent for cooking means she'll never be without a way to repay her debt.

Leona Felice (28, a turkish angora cat)

She's an up-and-coming lawyer in Mercer Bay, and a former tennis starlet who lost her chance at the big time when she shattered her knee in a car accident at 18. Though she and Michael are through, she still drops by occasionally…
