Opossum

Meet Possie, the Opossum! This morning, one of my neighbors came running asking me to get my camera because there was a kitten and a possum sitting together on a branch, but by the time I arrived, the kitten had jumped off, but look how cute this opossum is. We have a feeding station for all of our strays and community cats that roam our complex, so this opossum is now part of the "posse." I don't ever remember seeing such a cute opossum before. As I was talking to him/her, it kept twitching its ears forwards, backwards and all around and blinking at me, as if trying to figure out what I was saying. It was very adorable!

  5. I know, Samantha, he's the cutest one I've ever seen. I had a sort of "spookey" encounter with one before, but I love all God's creatures great and small and who am I to judge? I probably look pretty ugly and scary to the animals too...but I thought this one was exceptionally adorable! I should have filmed him twitching his ears and blinking at me ;-)
