Consider everything from the color of the character, to their clothes and accessories.  Accessories should be an important consideration. Is your character well-read? Maybe he has reading glasses or a monocle. Gender and height are just another dynamic in creating a look. Consider taking a normally small creature and making them big. Thinking back to the role of the character, consider how that would affect their personality. Is your character's personality larger than life because they are the hero? Are they the shy, but inwardly brave sidekick? Write down words that describe your character's personality. This will come in handy when introducing them to your audience, but could also be incorporated into their name. What makes your animal character special? Do they have certain qualities, which help to shape who they are? For example, your character may be able to read minds or fly. Perhaps they are a math whiz or a scientific genius.  Be creative, but consider how their unique qualities tie in with everything else you've already determined. Don't fall into stereotypes, as that only produces boring characters. It's up to you to break the mold and to give your character qualities that will set him/her apart.
