Playing possum

I'm making a possum! I'm sretching it out to make its tail.

Rumaging through the kitchen cabinet Boy found one of those brillo steel-wire-thingos and decided it would, naturally, make a good pet.

It's now safely nestled in its cage. It's name is Raison (or something like that).
(Yes, I know he's wearing odd shoes. He likes it that way. Remarkably, only one of them is on the wrong foot - he must not have been paying close enough attention. I'm really happy to say his other clothes are on the right way round today.)
