Aren’t possums and opossums different critters?

omaybe I’m crazy.

night all. Sleep well.

Opossums are small four legged creatures. Possum is a nick name of the late country singer George Jones.

Thank you Alley. I cant tell about the skin. He is just all bones. I have felt some lumps on him. Cyst like. No visible blood. He was always so fat..

Probably cancer of some sort. Cats are good at hiding illnesses.
I'm so sorry granny

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Thank you Miss Alley. That means a lot. I was thinking cancer but didnt want to say it just to see if thats what you came up with. He ate a couple treats this am but didnt drink.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

I wonder if he is in pain and if so how bad is it or just weakness ?

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Afternoon all, Just finished up w/ Tom except for cleaning/dumping of the body fluids. and then fix some grub. Not sure which one is worse. hahaa Probably the torture chamber.

Hard to tell.

Ugh, feeling so lazy today. All I have done is eat and take pills, watch TV and quilt.

Rod had to pull Porter out of the creek evidently Porter had a hind leg stuck?

What is it with your yaks and water?? Too domesticated to be smart enough to stay in safe areas? I sure hope he is OK.

Sigh. What was the oil that was good to use for scaly leg mites again? Stuff that was in the laxative section at the drug store?

Castor oil. Back in the early days of airplanes it was used as the lubricant for the engine.

I looked for castor oil at Walmart and some other places... nada. Going to have to mail order, like Bruce said.

The pharmacy at the grocery store ordered it for me. Might be cheaper online, I don't know.

well I can BUT then I can't see if I spelled a word wrong until after I post it.

You could try turning the brightness up on the screen so you could see as you type!

We made a copper wrist band in shop once and everyone gave the others a nickname and we punched it into the band. That was fun.

And turned everyone's wrists green!

Aren’t possums and opossums different critters?

Nope. Same animal, just Woodchuck, Groundhog and Whistlepig are all names for the same different animal. I have other names for them but all those names contain words we shouldn't type here.

Sorry about your cat Granny, sure sounds like its good long life is waning. I don't know what is wrong with it but at 20 years could be a bunch of stuff. Liver, kidneys. Rascal lost a lot of weight and she had a thyroid tumor. Bunch of money and radioactive iodine took care of it. That was a year ago, she is 13 now I think.

I went out and made the chick display bin I wanted. It's clear so you can see the chicks, and if it's sunny they stay warm.
Then I made a small door in the CA quail cage, so I can change the water without all of them getting out. And installed it.
Hubby unloaded the feed onto the Mule. And I got the free wood out of the truck as well. Idk where all the feed is going to go. The barn still has three loose quail in it, so I have to wait until dark to put stuff in there.
The turkey is so big I am going to have hubby drive the Mule so I can concentrate on wrangling the bird.
