a few years ago alex and angel duke "hunted" a opossum, really all they did was convince it to move on. can you 'borrow' a friends dog for a visit during the home invasion by the possum? and BTW i can understand the airplane ears on seeing her home invaded

Maybe a humane trap as suggested before. When relocated they usually don't find their way back.

That is just too funny!!!! I don't know how you would get rid of it.

I think it's cute, too. I've seen one in person, they don't seem as scary as you describe them to be. They remind me of large rats.

Of course, I'd never want one in my yard, however only because I KNOW my dogs would kill it (Simba was very close to doing that several years ago.)


The only thing I can think of is cutting off it's food source. Give the cat schedualed eating times and if she doesn't finish it completely, pick the food up. If it still comes around for the sparrow's food, then humanely trapping it and relocating may work.

When we lived in Chicago, I went to the basement one day and a possum was in the window well....and could not get out. When I turned on the light it lunged at the window.....one of the most frightening sights I have ever seen. Very, very NOT cute.

We put a board down and it was able to climb out.

I think possoms are CUTE too..

I used to have a problem with them coming around and eating the stray kitties food when I was married.

I really don't know how you would get rid of the possom.. but Kitty should win over possom in a kitty vs possom wrestling match...

Emmy will still come around / my strays always did.. Maybe she will learn to just *get their first*

Well cute or not cute is all in the eyes of the beholder, I don't particular find possums cute or not but you do have a problem.

I agree with the scheduled feedings, I am kind of surprised the kitties don't scare him away they are larger.
