OMG!!! Opossums!

The sheriff's Office told me to just take them and turn them loose and let them fin for themselves. The little girl died yesterday. I am hoping that the little boy will do well and I will be able to turn him loose. He sure is a fiesty little fellow.

Poor little things, people look at them like they are nothing but pest here, the lady I talk to said there was nobody to help me in that area. So I am depending on Libby to give advice. She is just wonderful! I just don't think that little boy would have made it this long, if it wasn't for her. He has been with me a week now.

Thank you Libby!

I am sorry to hear about the little girl.
But it sounds like between you and Libby
the boy might just make it.
Crossing fingers and sending oodles of
thoughts your way that the little guy makes it.

Awww Willie....that is the sweetest picture! I sewed up some pockets from an old fluffy bathrobe some years back for some orphaned possums at a shelter I used to deal with. The babies adored it (I turned it with the fuzzy side in). They'd all stick their little heads out and hiss at me. Glad the surviving baby is doing OK. I'd take him in a second if you were closer. I met a baby possum named Opie at an event some years back..what a cutie!
