Default Bruiser

Meet Bruiser



While mom was driving to work last week, she noticed a large black cat that someone had ran over :-( a day later she was driving and she saw something small and black run in front of the car. When she stopped and turned around and walked over to the woods line out emerged a tiny black kitten. He jumped on to here and started purring and going nuts. She took him to work, so he spent the day in jail but then she brought him home and took him to the vet. They estimated him to 7-8 weeks old, and he was 1 and 1/4 pound.

Took us a while to name him, it originally was going to be "Monster" but the rents werent to crazy about that so we started thinking of other possibilities and when venturing into the RC stuff "Bruiser" emerged. He is a little tough guy and is pretty entertaining to watch him play.





This is our 2nd rescue kitten in the past few years, we are big with rescue animals at the house (have 2 rescued bull terriers) and Bruiser is already getting along pretty well everyone else.

Just thought I'd share

-Mike

It was a multi leaf pack set up. They look awesome and flexed out well but they sag is bad... I am going to see if they main leaf can be beefed up , maybe even beef them all up somewhat...

What's his reaction, when you fire up your scale bruiser?
My dog sees mine crawling around, she runs to it and bites the tires
That's another reason we built the 3' tall fence, around crawlerville, so she wouldn't see it and go nuts
