So, as you all probably know, my Mom has become quite the collector of injured and abused animals over the years. She has dogs (some missing a leg), cats who have been shot, turtles (one missing a leg), a chicken, and other critters that suffered misfortune. I spoke to her this morning to see how she weathered the storm. She told me she found a baby possum that had apparently fallen out of a tree overnight. It has a broken leg, so she has taken it in. She set the leg and it should be fine in time. This is not the first possum she has rescued and not the first possum leg she has set. Just another misfit animal added to the petting zoo.
