Opossum Obsession

[ramshii_extasis]

I decided to go into the woods at Lock and Dam today. No real goal…just packed the usual: a camera incase I saw anything interesting, and a plastic bag incase I found anything dead

There was a guy in my hometown who ran an antique store/museum. He raised a baby possum. It was actually pretty cute.

Do they stink like ferrets?

[futuristicplans]

I don't think so... I don't remember him smelling. He was shy, though. Stayed in the guy's pocket or under a towel when he got bigger.

Oh crap. I'm about to have a seizure from just imagining how cute that is.
I want a baby 'possum.

Weird... That's all I can say. I love you, though! Your story was alive with detail and great wording!

He's really cute in that "I'm a rodent"- sorta way:)

You have to get them young. Taking in a grown one is dangerous. They're vicious; atleast the ones around here are. I respect them a ton for their sheer determination when it comes to staying alive, but 'coons are smarter.
