New Possum....on my Patio...

We just don't see those in this neck of the desert! He's cute, and I would have loved to see you crawling around on the ground taking his pic!

See those fangs he has?! Sure doesn't stop him from eating!! He's fat as a little pig!! He is cute Lacy but Miss Prissy said he would bite the heck out of you with those razor sharp teeth...too bad, bet Rooster-Red could've caught him for me so I could sneak a pet!!

Oh heck - he's CUTE (sorry)

 

[tazcat70]

This whole thing reminds me of an old Beverly Hillbillies episode-most of you here probably won't even know what I am talking about. Elly Mae had a possum for a pet and I remember the city slickers in the show thought they(Jed and his family) were doing some weird experiments and made a giant rat! Please tell me I am not the only one here that remembers the Beverly Hillibillies? It was my fave show as a kid and I always wanted to be like Elly Mae(having all those critters and all, plus being rich and very beautiful to boot!).

Hey Lee!! I was dyin for you to see him, you being the possumspert and all, lol!!! He eats the cat food on the porch, obviously spoiled since he pushed all the dog food out of the bowl to just eat the cat food!! But no, he hasnt even been over my fence and in the backyard and that's where my chickens are. I'm hoping if he stays full enough he won't be interested--see how fat he is?!!! Course I have no idea if Fred is a girl or a boy but seemed like afair name to call him/her!!! The cat eats out of the bowl too when the possum isnt there so I guess they get along ok too.
