Downtown Montreal. March 1st.
Crossing the street, the critter stopped momentarily when Mr.Hothead stormed out of the restaurant, then quickly moved further, looking to Shana, Candace and Gash as they exited the restaurant while moving. Stopping next to a lamppost, the critter looked back and forth between Shana and co, and Anik and Yuri.
With the latter two already moving away, the critter instead decided to move closer to the trio, approaching from the south-east. Being 11cm/4.2in from foot to shoulder, the critter was tiny, and probably wouldn't be very difficult to miss.
If Shana picked up on the critter's scent, she would find the scent didn't consisted out of any chemicals found on Earth, which might make it stand out.
