This is my little Tuxie Gizmo. Two years ago I was driving a country road in Indiana to get my Christmas tree from a farm. There in the road I saw what I thought was a dead skunk, until his little head turned and looked up as I drove by. He had been hit by a car and left for dead. His front leg was severely injured and the tissue on his lower jaw had been ripped away, but he was awake and alert and purring when I scooped him up and took him to my Vet. They couldn't save his leg or his lower teeth. He came home to a fully decorated tree 2 days later and managed to climb up the trunk and fell asleep in the branches. I've never received a better Christmas gift.![]()
