Abstract
A decorative writing implement includes an animal-shaped body having four limbs and a head. Each limb is detachable from the body and retains a pen therein. A rear end of each limb is interferentially fit into a hole defined in the body for mounting the limb to the body. A writing tip of each pen extends beyond a front end of the corresponding limb. Protection caps in the form of a pair of gloves and a pair of boots are detachably mounted to the writing tips of the pens for protection thereof. A further pen is retained in the body with a writing tip thereof extending beyond the head. A cap is detachably mounted to the head for covering and protecting the further pen. Preferably, the animal-shaped body is made of rubber thereby being capable to serve as an eraser.
