Last night hubby and I were visiting a neighboring farmer. We were standing in his machine shed enjoying a nice cold beverage. He was showing us his new welding table, blah, blah, blah. The man has an old tom/barn cat that was rubbing on my husbands legs. I had looked at it but not paid it much attention. Next thing I know this cat is just screaming at my husband making the most god-awful noises. When I looked down, standing next to this tom cat and my husband was one of the biggest possums I had ever seen!
I just started saying possum, possum, possum, over and over again till they looked down. The neighboring farmer jumped back, my husband grabbed a steel pipe, and well, you know the rest. After it was all over it was just amazing that this possum just walked right up to us. We had to wonder if the possum and cat had been "friends" and had been sharing the cat's food.
