I had a opossum casually dining with a cat in my backyard earlier. I wasnt expecting that. We’re calling him Ralph. 😅

@mom2godzillaandwonkypets, 😂 We’re probably going to be stuck feeding it now. 😂 We put out some dry cat food last night because one of the little neighborhood cats was sitting out there looking hungry, then all of a sudden a opossum appears too. 😂 Ah well! He can hang out back there! We dont mind as long as he leaves us alone.
It looks like a “Virginia” Opossum. There are so many types but the US alone have I think 2.
Huh. I might have to look up the different types! It’s a cute little thing! I don’t want to get too near to it though. 😅
@icebergahead, I had no idear there were so many types! 😂 It does look like the virginia one! Or the common one! It was dark out and we were just looking through the back door window so couldnt see too many details. I didnt even know we had these little guys around here until a month or two ago when my husband said he saw one on the way home from work. We caught a raccoon on the camera in the front yard a week or two ago too. We’re just getting all the critters apparently. 😂
