How to get rid of possums from your ceiling

The fun of living on a farm, surrounded by bushland. Birds singing, kangaroo’s hopping through the paddock…. …galah’s & cockatoo’s stealing all the ducks tucker, wombats digging holes under the fences and letting foxes through to get your chooks, monitors stealing eggs and eviscerating your waterfowl, feral goats breaking down fences to get at your nanny’s.  Oh it’s…

About time I actually draw twisted designs, SHOUT OUT TO FOLKS WHO DRAW TWISTED DANDY CENTAUR-LIKE, YALL WERE MY INSPO FOR THIS, kinda had a bit of that one myth, Kuchisake-Onna, for some inspo regarding a "they look safe but aren't" vibe lol I'll clean it up and add a bit more to the design maybe

Today I brought the kittens and the one cat I managed to trap (their Aunt Relm) to the TNR clinic. They were all vaccinated, spayed/neutered, treated for fleas/parasites, and given a quick exam. Everybody's healthy (aside from some mild eye/ear discharge), and recovering! I've got some liquid dewormer to give the kittens for the next few days, I'm sure they'll love it. Relm will go back to her outdoor life tomorrow. I especially love her black nose on the orange face. She used to be so horribly skinny when I first saw her, and she's looking much healthier now!

I didn't manage to catch the kittens' mother, but I did open the door in the morning to find this rather embarrassed opossum. I sent him on his way.

what if Kaneki had a possum in his roof and he had to try to slap the ceiling with a broom to scare it away or prove that it’s there

POSSUM HAS BEEN TRICKED, THE CHMEESE IS A LIE

Ferrets are illegal in New Zealand? Do you know why?

They sure are! We have a very diverse native bird population here, quite a few of which are reasonably endangered, and are very protective over them so anything that could eat them and/or their eggs are considered pests and there's loads of programmes to eradicate them. Most of our bush reserve-y areas or predator-free forests have traps all over them and owning any as pets/ trying to import them into the country is extremely illegal. Our border patrol is so strict about biosecurity that you'll be fined heavily if you bring in so much as an undeclared apple core (I wish I was joking about this btw but it's like $400) and any animal products are picked apart for bugs and parasites, and if you're trying to import a pet, they have to be quarantined for a while. But yeah, ferrets = bad because of our birds

I can’t be the only one that keeps receiving a tumblr ad that says MY CRAZY EX-WIFE but then it’s just a picture of a possum in a cage

[setnet]

was talking to a guy today who works in conservation and he says it's weird talking about it to anyone in the same field from overseas because they're all real focused on stuff like preventing poaching and he's just over here like 'yeah no our main goal is killing animals.'

my mom is an elementary school teacher at a high needs school so every now and then you get a story that is so wild it is (what we now call) abbott elementary worthy. and i think there was probably a rabid possum on parks and rec or something so rabid possums aren’t groundbreaking comedically. but i still lost it so hard i hyperventilated and started crying over this rabid possum story

[addicted-to-procrastination]

I could never be a farmer id have to cull an animal or mercy kill something that got horrifically injured by my equipment and I wouldn't be able to do it and I'd cry for 7 days

Sometimes “mew”-tual aid takes a different turn. We got word that a lil opossum friend got turned around in rural North Branch. @thecatinn420 stepped in and transported this lil fella to @wildliderehabilitation in Roseville MN.

He will be assessed medically, rehabbed and taken to a refuge where he will be safe. One of the ladies who works there told me there are several other possum babies around his age/size. So he will have friends. :)

The very nature of the possum makes the design of a possum trap rather simple and straightforward. With some types of wildlife, traps have to be carefully disguised and can sometimes only be used once. The bait used must be special or it will be ignored. And, there must be no sign of human activity or scent in the vicinity of the trap, or it will not be effective.
