Description: Move over, Simons Cat: Theres a new animated feline that wants to make its mark on the internet. His name isScraps, and hes the creation of a Trinidad & Tobago-based animation team led by Kevin Bhall.

The eight five-minute episodes ofScrapsthat Bhall has planned will follow the titular cat as he makes mischief on a Caribbean island. In a teaser for the project, Bhall displays the brightness of the setting he hopes to create, as well of the kinetic pace with which Scraps will move across his home territory.

The goal is to ultimately create an animated series that will express the culture of the Caribbean islands in a bright, authentic, and kid-friendly way. With the money he wants to raise on Indiegogo, Bhall will get to work on a pilot, so that he can give potential viewers a better idea of what to expect:
