Support around the tail was a little finicky to get off at the tip and left a small defect, but otherwise no issues at all. I printed using the dovetail remix, which avoids over-reliance on super glue.
For texture, I used Bambu Studio's Fuzzy Skin setting (Contour, 0.2 point distance and skin distance), then manually painted the entire cat using "Fuzzy skin Painting". To avoid issues with the dovetail connector with the added texture, I used the top/bottom view and deselected the fuzzy skin painting where the two connectors are meant to join, ensuring that the skin wouldn't interfere with the connection. I also deselected the fuzzy skin on the bottom of the cat, where it's meant to connect to the base plate, for the same reason.
Assembly was easy, using a very small dab of Loctite's Super Glue Gel Control before sliding the tail and main body together. I also used a light layer of the same glue for the base plate. Eye attachment was done using hot glue.
5/5 print, wife loves it!

No issues with the default settings. I went ahead with a second print of just the bat in various sizes using Bambu Studio's scale button as I thought a few more would look neat. I used 3M's Command brand damage-free, general purpose hanging strips that have a double-sided foam tape, bought from my local Walmart and cut to size as needed.
5/5 stars in my opinion, with the only suggestion being to cut the thickness down to maybe 1/3 of its current size to save on filament, even if it wasn't all that much to begin with.
