I could take a quick drive into Tustin to find out!

:rofl:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

:hug:

MAHNY and I had a pretty good giggle fest the other night with my really bad earworm thread (Fifty Nifty).

:rofl:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. Yes...I did see that!

He is quite the fellow.......I really want to meet him someday!

:woohoo:

[fla nocount]

23. Just long enough to worm them.

and fatten them up. I've heard it tastes like pork with a similar texture.

13. poor little guy! (or gal!)

Tame possums are really quite gentle creatures. Perhaps there is a local petting zoo or someplace to take the little critter that knows how to handle a tame wild animal. They are really not good pets for families with small children.

[KitchenWitch]

15. I agree.

I wonder what possesses people sometimes.

[Der Blaue Engel]

16. Someone flagged it

The ad's gone. Hmph.

[KitchenWitch]

21. Dang!

That was a source of great humor!

[Crabby Appleton]

18. they're good with grits, yum!

[Random_Australian]

19. 1) Don't take it to New Zealand.

Possums are shot on sight in most places there.

;)

[Hugin]

22. Hey, them's good eat'n!

Throw in some carrots and turnips!

Tastes like VEAL! :rofl:

[MonkeyFunk]

24. Dammit!

I'm still making payments on my last opossum!

[NoGOPZone]

25. Better get mine before Cletus Spuckler grabs the last one nt

26. I rescued an injured possum once upon a time

He never bit me or harmed me in any way, but I do know how to handle critters. Since he appeared to have been struck by a car, and there was a small amount of blood coming out of the corners of his mouth, I found a vet who would humanely put him down. They're weird critters - they have to have gas and a cardiac injection to put them down.

He was pretty cute, but stinky.

28. Opposums visits my house...

on a regular basis -- they come in through the cat door and roam around, sometimes into my bedroom. I'll wake up in the middle of the night and take a sniff -- yup, oppussum's visiting! :D

I really like the little guys, even if they are stinky. And I've never had a problem with one in all the years -- they have always left my cats, bunnies, and pigeon alone, and done nothing more than have a little nosh.

[ChickMagic]

29. And you like pigies too

I have a pet pigeon here at work. I sneak a little birdseed to him. I've been threatened many times for feeding those "rats". I've seen the guy from the CDC who checks on their health - they're in great health. One guy told me they carry disease and I said, "Wow. That's really funny from a guy who walks through Parkland every day."

I like skunks too - the smell doesn't really bother me. I wouldn't want in in my house, but there you are.

I've rescued snakes off roads and freaked people out.

Your place sounds like a fun place! :D

[ceile]

30. Me too.

Used to keep the back doors open for the cats and the dogs, and about once a week one would wander into the living room. The littel ones are awfully cute.

27. Sugar!!!

It's gone. :(
