the ferret strikes again

You could probably see how much I adore little Gus in one of my photos yesterday, right?

And then today I come home to find he has pulled out a closed box of boots, my brown boots, opened the box, and has chewed through one of the straps that wraps around the boot.

Cannot glue it back in place because he ate a pea-sized bit of the strap.

I'm tellin' ya, that dog is trouble. No wonder he ended up behind bars.
