NAME:

Rufus

Rufus is a lynx of a particular species: Its coat is red, very red, almost red. And all animals distrust him, not only because of this strange color, but also because he was a painter! A red-haired painter, never seen! And, of course, animals run away from it.
Only Lorde the fox is an ardent admirer of him.
– What a bunch of ignorants! - Tells his friend Rufus.
– Your talent is not recognized!
Lorde decides to organize an exhibition in his honor, but without revealing the artist's true identity. All animals from the region attend.

– Great! Fabulous! – they exclaim, seduced.
Lord then announces:
– Meet the artist… Rufus!
And Rufus introduces himself, before the stunned eyes of the guests. There is a long silence, then thunderous applause.
Now Rufus has become the local attraction!
