Cherub, a desktop pet for your Mac
A tiny winged angel with a golden halo. Flutters about and cheers you on.
Cherub comes free with Doja for Mac. It walks along the bottom of your screen and on top of your windows, waves when you hover, naps when things are quiet, and chats with you when you click it.
