Our Little Bugbear

Bugbear is the nickname we use most with Maximo - though we also lovingly refer to him as: 'Mito, Mo, Tick Turd (I know it doesn't sound endearing - but he was pretty small when he came home and we're assuming a tick turd is fairly tiny), and of course, Max. Often times, he gets called Flavius (our cat).
This past week, John told me it was a mythological creature and forwarded me this link of what a bugbear looks like...

YIKES! That's not what I had in mind. I was more thinking of a cute little Ewok-looking thing that was half bug, half bear. I'm going to try to erase this image from my mind and replace it with that cute little Ewok.
Lately, his personality is starting to come out more and more, and really it's kind of like a bear squeezed into a bug-sized body.
