Thanks everyone. He is such a sweetheart and we are so lucky to have him. His tail hairs are pulled and are on their way so we'll know for sure pretty soon. But I'm guessing shorty. His neck and the way he moves I think.

What a cutie! I love how he's playing with the dead leaves, then bucking and running after mama.
