Well, the trap was a TERRIBLE idea.

That is NOT Cleo. 

I got him out OK without any harm to either of us.  I will not be using the trap again.

Yikes! Definitely not Cleo. Apparently possums will do anything to get into your house. You are not alone...I accidentally trapped a skunk once.

He just wants to come live with you! Lol

Get the good life at Heather's house. NO thanks.

I will NOT be putting any more food outside. Clearly we have a pretty active wildlife population even though I am literally right in the middle of the subdivision.

Animals like rats, possums and raccoons thrive in subdivisions due to alllll those trash cans. Hope Cleo shows up soon.

I wonder if that's the possum that was living in your house last year?

If the cats are hungry, they will come to you or your door. I trapped both a raccoon and a skunk, both digging in my garden. Neither was pleasant to deal with. At least you got them spayed, that is the important thing. Now, if you get them back, you will have to deal with fleas for all your pets. There is also the digestive issues you will have to redeal with. Oh happy days...making memories.

I had to wonder if it's the same critter. It sure wasn't scared of me and wasn't in a hurry to leave.

Ron saw Cleo one night but we haven't seen her since, but the cat door is open so she can come in whenever she wants.

I'm real glad I didn't get a skunk.

Ron “saw” her but did you see her?

I haven't seen Cleo in a few days, when I did she was on the porch and scolding me while rubbing against my ankles.

So she may not have been in the house at all, since Ron’s judgement doesn’t mean squat
