I live near a creek, and they'll just thump by in the middle of the night sometimes, and I hear them trudging along outside my bedroom window. Never thought of them as cute, though. I guess the Indy possums must outclass ours. :D

Well, I think just about everything is cute Mandy! I realize a lot of people don't think they are cute though. We have really cute squirrels here. We have the reddish brown squirrels with the big bushy tails. Now, if you drive over to Cincinnati (about a 100 miles east of here) you won't see the brown squirrels. They are gray! And much smaller. I think ours are cuter. :)
Rob, I think possums live just about everywhere in the eastern part of the U.S. They might even have them in the western half. I'm not sure. But I'm wondering if our possums are the same as yours. They are marsupials though, the females have a pouch. So maybe they are the same. You must not have ever watched The Beverly Hillbillies. Granny is always talking about her "possum stew". lol :P

I hate Florida opossums their tails are bare like a rat which grosses me out Yuk! They're rodents and so are squirrels. Ours are the small grey ones David and their tails are not very bushy. I think of them as "varmints" as Granny would say. Yuk.

Dang, David, that's a pretty cool trick, thinking everything is cute. Maybe you could head over to page 504 of the 'Jake Jake Jake!' thread, and let us know if you also think ostriches are cute. If so, maybe scientists in the future could replicate your brain and heart and start inserting them in all human embryos. What a wonderful world we would live in then. ;D
