Possums

We've seen 4 possums in the last 4 days; two spent an evening, two different times, in our cat Marsha's outside foam sleeping box. I don't think she has ever used it,  so tough luck. Neither tried to look dead, they have bright round beady eyes, but they both tried to look invisible.  The second two  we saw skuttling off the road.  Further on was a nice fat skunk. We hope he doesn't move in. Our dog Bozy who always runs down the road, the last stretch home, managed to ignore him. Thank heaven.
