Vile creatures. They tear up my wife’s garden. No matter how many I catch, there’s always more.

I caught a possum a while back, and he (or she) was perfectly happy in the trap. Wouldn’t leave. I finally had to pick up the trap and dump it out. Then it waddled off slowly.
Not my monkeys, not my circus...

Had a dream I was at an all inclusive resort in Cancun area and a Opossum wearing a facemask bite me, and then a few minutes later I was climbing a rock wall about 15 feet in the air and two coyotes jumped on me from ground.
Then I had to walk across a rock wall with a waterfall attached and I woke up.

We’ve caught them on chicken bones, food scraps, old vegetables, fish bones, etc.

I used to do that at my home in civilized Hurst. I got a skunk that stunk up the whole neighborhood. How to get it out? 22 short, with a mask and gloves. Got it in a plastic bag and dumped it in some uninhabited woods.
Without a sense of urgency, nothing ever happens.

He has nice teeth, lol.
I have them every morning along with coons. Always trying to sneak in and fetch some cat food. It's like a little game to them. Drives me nuts. Killing them just seems to bring more. Set a trap out once and the cat ends up in it.
In the end of days, walk with a Bible in one hand and a pistol in the other.
I'm not ready to die, but I'm prepared to die.

That’s what he gets for being a possum.
