"My Neighbour's black cat had kittens and they found a baby possum on their deck that must have fallen off of it’s Mom. The Mama Cat took it in as one of her kittens, but she doesn’t understand why this little funny kitten hangs on her all the time 😊. At this point in time we need to be more like the animals, take care of each other in a time of need."
