I have not tweaked CTR for Red Cats themes buttons. Could you post a screenshot so all readers here can see the problem you have?
Looks like this for me with and without CTR (on both Fx42 and Fx43.0.1).
I am using Red Cats 5.8.5 beta 1. I see there is a new beta available but I am afraid to try it as it might put back the large icons (would like to have the missing Windows upper right corner buttons back though).
You have the big Red Cats icons. Red_Fat_Lazy_Cat, back around May, in this thread posted code for me to use to get the small ones again. It was beta code at the time but I think incorporated now.
Earlier in this thread is a screenshot of the big Red Cat icons I get sometimes:

Here is a screenshot of the small Red Cats icons that I like so much better:
posting.php?mode=quote&f=48&p=14150723
Then a few posts down from the above post showing the small icons, I mentioned that Fx 38.0.1 put the Red Cat icons back to large size.
Red_Fat_Lazy_Cat then responded that Red Cats icons size should not be dependent on the version of Fx and commented the problem was likely due to CTR and asked if I had the very latest CTR version. I didn't so I got it and the icons became small again.
So, there is a definite interaction and dependency between Red Cats theme and CTR hence my most recent post about them becoming large again with the latest Fx update. I know that having Red Cats theme results in a number of options missing in CTR. I was not aware of this until an IT friend who is an expert on Fx pointed this out to me recently. So, I figured CTR was why I was seeing big icons again in 43.0.2 plus having the back/forward icons as only ONE icon (when Red Cats is small icons I have TWO icons not one for the back and forward buttons and since that is traditional Fx, I figured CTR was responsible for the better look).
I have discovered though that I can fix the large Red Cats icons that appear, whenever a new version of Fx is downloaded and installed through internal updater, by shutting down Fx and then REBOOTING my Windows 8.0 Pro computer and then opening Fx and the icons will be small again. Simply shutting down and restarting Fx does not have the desired affect and the icons remain large after a Fx version update but a computer reboot fixes the problem. That seems very strange to me but as long as that action continues to fix the problem then I am fine with doing that.
EDIT: Sorry, I forgot to bypass the Proxomitron while here hence the odd UA string. Proxo has a special style sheet for this site hiding the right side panel (with a toggle switch) so there is no wasted white space there underneath the bottom of the panel and I have always liked that look much better all these years. The correct UA string is 43.0.2. I am using CTR 1.4.6 beta 3 (and see there is an update waiting to be installed).
