Possums are much better for the environment than outdoor cats.

yeah unless they're like getting into your house somehow, you really should just let them do their thing

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 11 months ago

It also may be illegal to trap them without a permit depending on your location.

Let them do their thing especially if they're getting into your house

Idk I'd rather have bugs in my house than possum poo. Plus bug traps are also a thing

Sure it's a cat? Pretty sure it'd a possum. Why would a possum trap catch anything but a possum?

Check the litter box, they may have done a house swap…

People say orange cats are dumb. It's actually all cats that are dumb.

Could be worse. I set a trap like that for my cat and caught a skunk.

Set a trap for my indoor cat that got out. Caught a possum, multiple neighborhood cats, my other cat a bunch. Took a month to trap the right cat.

"why do you hate me?"

Why try to trap a possum? They eat bugs and are rather chill. We love having a few around.

So I can force it to let me pet it duh
