Just a little point but I feel I have to stick up for Posse. My vet told
me when I first got her that opossums do not carry rabies; remember, no
rodent there! (It's OK, Posse; I'm still there for ya).

I've learned that life is like a roll of toilet paper, the closer it
gets to the end, the faster it goes. Smell the roses!
