Oh Chris .... CT is so cute. I won't ask about the burns. But I'm guessing you rescued him!!!! Can't wait to see more pics of him as he grows up! My hat's off to you! #2075035

To Tammy, Theresa, Kaye & Jill thanks for your kind comments. CT does get called Cute Thing, & Curly Tail, Clumsy Thing as well. Fire Officers rescued him along with his 2 sisters & a brother (he couldn't be saved). My daughter's friend is the vet's nurse where they were taken. CT is around 7 weeks old & is very playful. I have to watch him all the time as he gets caught by his burnt tail. Yes you'll see more pictures I'm sure. #2075252

Hi Linda, Johnny, Vicki, Sharon, Lorri & Robyn thank you all for your comments. CT had to have his tail docked (he now looks like a Manx) & you wouldn't believe how much more energy he has!!! He can now climb & leap, nothing or no-one is safe!! #2186123

Thanks for your comments. He is a amusing little fella, he can use his out of shape paws to get into all sorts of things. I will enter a picture of him getting elastic bands off handles today. #3360237

He is a darling little animal and seems like he has become a good friend. Good job on the photo and on rescuing this little fellow.

Thank you all for taking the time to comment on CT. He is still having to deal with his scars but seems to live a happy life getting into everything he shouldn't. He waits to go out for a walk each arvo when Tony gets home from work all decked out in his red harness. #8452166
