Obviously you don' t want the cuts in the cape to be noticeable. Other things to look for that make them look realistic are:

1) moisture (small droplets of glue) on the whiskers
2) a wet, bumpy nose
3) veins popping out of the cheeks
4) hair inside the ears
5) eyes that are glassy and have some depth to them

Keep it out of direct sunlight and never spray a cleaner directly on it - spray onto a rag and wipe it clean. Congratulations on the wall hanger!
