"Wait this is a fox?" Naruto asked holding the weird Catdog fusion "Why does everyone hate these things?! It's so cool!"

Naruto meets a fox outside the Leaf during a mission and he's immediately impressed by it.

"It's like all the good stuff from dogs and cats and you get rid of the stupid shit!" Naruto exclaimed getting a laugh from the fox "And it laughs too?! Why are these things not everywhere?!"

"Naruto that's a wild animal." Kakashi warns.

"Sit." Naruto orders it and it does. Naruto having a built in Fox Control from being the 9-tails Jinchuriki lesser foxes obey orders."see he's trained!"

Cut to Naruto doing the tree walking and the fox does it too. "Can you do jutsus? Watch this- Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

And the fox mimics him and actually forms a few clones.
