Ewoks?

Don't you wish you had one? That would be great. What would you do? I would take him in his infant stages when his skull was most soft. I would tie a flat stone on top of his skull and set it in place with sinew. This would cause the flattening and hardening of his skull. This would serve perfectly if you wanted to take him to your local bar and have him balance your beer on the top of his head.

I would set up a zip line in my house as well. He could transport things and small people/animals across the room.

Getting a dark haired one seems smart... Less potential of stain.

Give it cigarette? Bring it down to the hood? I guess if you had the time you could teach in to drive.
