Gracie's Possum Runs Up the Tree


I thought Gracie had a dead squirrel, but it was a very live possum. I leashed the dog, and the baby possum high tailed it up the tree and held on for dear life.

So Gracie caught the possum!

The only time (that I know of) that Alex came in contact with a possum, my brave cat hid behind me.

Nick,
Gracie firmly believes that all animals in her yard are playmates. She tried to play with a skunk, and she got sprayed. She chases the squirrels to no avail.

Alex, whose recent trip to the vet I saw, is not only brave but also smart!

Perhaps Alex isn't as smart as we think. Today he crawled under the grill on our deck to obtain some shade and didn't realize (until I rescued him)that he had to back out to get out. Poor kitty. He had to eat 2 packets of his favorite kitty cat food to recover his composure.

Nick,
Maybe, just maybe, Alex saw treats as his ultimate objective! He was probably lying under the porch chuckling!
