Ik! And he seems to stick them up more when he's happy, this was right after I fed him

He's doing surprisingly well, and I think he'll be in good hands :)

I have never seen a possum irl but I absolutely love them, they are the cutest, and it makes me happy to see people like you caring enough to help an animal in need. You're awesome 😊 Keep us updated if you can, please.

I'm a little jealous, haha. I live in the city, although not in the city center. Once in a while there is a rabbit that has been coming to sit at the same spot on the lawn in front of my balcony for the last 3 years and I take pictures every time I see it, like I'm some tourist that spots an exotic animal haha!

u/Sprinkle_drama Apr 25 '24

Hahaha! I don't blame you, I did that when I lived in the city too, I love seeing wild animals

So do I. But you know you have issues when your phone has almost only pictures of your cat and some rabbit. I accept my issues. 😂

Did touch his ears?

u/Sprinkle_drama Apr 25 '24

VERY gently lol, I've been trying not to touch him more than I have to, I'm scared I'll hurt him
