How it works

This animal kaomoji page holds the animals that have no page of their own. The first is a mouse, °(・ェ・)°. Foxes, tigers, lions, sheep, seals, pigs, monkeys, penguins and birds each have a chip. Tap a face and it is copied.

Which marks make which animal

A mouse kaomoji has small round ears, °, and a thin tail. A fox kaomoji has two solid triangles for ears over a narrow muzzle: ◢(・∇・)◣. A tiger kaomoji carries stripes on each cheek, (≡・ω・≡). A lion's mane is 彡, a Han character Unihan defines as hair.

Sheep, lambs and seals

A sheep kaomoji curls a section sign each side for horns, §(・ェ・)§, and a lamb kaomoji is the same face with small curls: ˢ(・ェ・)ˢ. A seal kaomoji has flippers made of two phonetic letters, ᶘ・ω・ᶅ, so its label says what it borrows.

  • Cats, bears, dogs, fish and bunnies are not here. Each has a page: start at cat kaomoji.
  • Fifteen faces carry a Japanese word. Wiktionary gives konkon as the cry of a fox and ukī as the sound a monkey makes.
  • ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ is a whole mouse in profile, built from three Canadian syllabics characters.

Questions and answers

What is the snout in (・∞・)?

The infinity sign, U+221E, borrowed for a pig's snout because of its two round loops. (^(oo)^) uses two letters o in brackets instead, and is the only face on the page typed in plain ASCII.

Why is there no cat, dog or bear here?

Each of those has a page of its own, as do fish and bunnies, and a face on this site lives on one page only. This page takes the animals that would be too few to fill a page alone.

Why does a face show an empty box?

A character in it has no font on your device. Fourteen faces here borrow: the seals use Phonetic Extensions Supplement letters, two pigs a Yi syllable, and the mouse in profile Canadian Aboriginal syllabics. The Everyday characters chip hides them.

What does こんこん mean?

Konkon. Wiktionary gives it as the cry of a fox, and also as a light knock. It is written here beside ◢(・∇・)◣.

How this list was compiled: The entries are this site's own selection and arrangement: each was put together for this page from the parts a kaomoji is made of, with the mark of one animal added: small round ears for a mouse, triangle ears for a fox, cheek stripes for a tiger, a mane for a lion, a curl each side for a sheep, flippers for a seal, a snout for a pig, a round ear each side for a monkey, flippers down and a beak for a penguin. Some are forms in common use that nobody owns, the mouse in profile and the monkey with @ for ears among them. The labels, groups and order are this site's own. Cats, bears, dogs, fish and bunnies each have a page of their own and none of their faces is here. The Japanese words come from Wiktionary, each entry read 2026-09-30: chūchū, squeak, and mouse in children's language (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ちゅうちゅう); nezumi, a mouse or a rat (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/鼠); konkon, the cry of a fox (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/こんこん); kitsune, a fox (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/狐); tora, a tiger (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/虎); raion, a lion (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ライオン); shishi, a synonym of raion (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/獅子); hitsuji, a sheep (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/羊); azarashi, a seal (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/海豹); būbū, childish for pig, piggy, oinky (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ぶうぶう); buta, a pig (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/豚); saru, a monkey (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/猿); ukī, ook, the sound a monkey makes (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ウキー); pengin, a penguin (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ペンギン); tori, a bird (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/鳥). The Unihan database, version 18.0.0, defines 彡, U+5F61, the lion's mane here, as hair. Every character of every entry was looked up in UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt), and must be an assigned, visible character. Emoji shown as pictures by default are left out. "Borrows" under an entry names each character from outside the blocks of punctuation, common symbols and Latin, Greek, Cyrillic and Japanese letters, with its script from Scripts.txt (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Scripts.txt) or, for a Latin or common character, its block from Blocks.txt (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/Blocks.txt). "Short" means 6 code points or fewer, spaces counted. Nothing here says how any one device draws a face. Licence: own work
