Here is a quote:</p> <p>Question: Will an opossum attack my pets? </p> <p>Answer: It is more likely that a dog will injure or kill an opossum. A cat may attack and kill young rat-sized opossums. Adult opossums and cats seem to have a mutual respect and leave each other alone. In general, opossums are docile, non-aggressive animals and will not attack your pets. They prefer to escape and avoid confrontations, if possible. If not, the threatened opossum may “play ‘possum”, show its teeth, or bite in self-defense, as any animal would. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/7997/page/5#post-211866 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 15:15:50 +0000 Hizlilbrat 211866@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>no luck yet..we have put out the live trap the last 2 night..we keep catching opossums and no one has seen Rella in days..im really starting to worry. do you think a opossum can hurt a cat? she isnt a very big cat but she is really fast! i just keep praying. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/7997/page/5#post-211856 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 14:56:12 +0000 Leeny 211856@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Go to the "Hizlilbrat" threat to light a candle for Dutch. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/7997/page/5#post-211848 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 14:46:02 +0000 Kitten Whisperer 211848@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I'm sorry you lost little Dutch, HB.

We all had such high hopes for Dutch..he was such a little fighter. God makes these decisions for us sometimes but God knew more than we do...I'm so sorry and pray that Cinderella will be home soon. I'm sure she will. It could be she's in a private place saying her goodbyes to her final little fursoul. May they all be snuggling in God's embrace. Rella will come home...to the place where love and security reached out to her when she was at her lowest peak. To where she knows she has a furever home. {{{Hugs}}} </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/7997/page/5#post-210815 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 08:58:42 +0000 gabrielle 210815@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>awwwww, i had been following the story and i'm sad, it's so sad news!!!! but you were the angel that made him feel loved even if he had a short life...prayers for you and ella to appear soon....[[[hugs]]] </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/7997/page/5#post-210807 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 08:53:51 +0000 debsterwiz 210807@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I just read the post about poor Dutch, I cry with you on this one. Please take heart that he isn't in anymore pain and now he waits for you and Rella at the Bridge. He knew love because of you and he appreciated it. As for Rella, please don't lose heart, she will come back to you. She knows where there is lots of food, shelter, and love. That would be with YOU! She is scared and confused. She is just a baby herself. I wait your good news. {{{hugs}}} </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/7997/page/5#post-210788 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 08:39:58 +0000 Buttercup 210788@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>That's great that you got a humane trap H!

He was adorable and we were all hoping like crazy he would make it through; so many people were pulling for him. I hope Rella finds her way back to you really, really soon; she obviously loves you to bits already (and your faucets!) and I'm sure she'll make it back soon, if she possibly can. Good luck searching for her. Let us know what happens. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/7997/page/5#post-210331 Wed, 30 Jul 2008 17:19:11 +0000 Violetbabykitty 210331@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I am so sorry you lost the little baby.

Your vet clearly is wonderful, but you mentioned that Rella will be spayed this Thursday. Given that she is getting antibiotics and is recovering from starvation, does he think it is OK to do this so soon? Hope you don't mind me asking </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/7997/page/4#post-209005 Mon, 28 Jul 2008 12:51:27 +0000 Hizlilbrat 209005@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>yeah when i saw the extra toes i thought something was wrong with them!
