Uninvited

I reached in through the little door of Raaga's cat house to pet her and was surprised at how scruffy her fur felt. Normally she is soft as a bunny rabbit. I pulled my hand out and looked around and saw Raaga looking at me.

I lifted the roof off the cat house to reveal an oppossum just as ugly as you please. This explained why Raaga wasn't in her house on such a cold night.

I dispatched the possum with a broom and brought both cat and house inside for the night.

This isn't the first time our deck has provided a temporary home for the homeless.

You are not supposed to pet the opossums, you are only supposed to feed them marshmallows and june bugs. Perhaps you should set up a homeless shelter in your backyard. I suggest a pile of logs, set well away from the house. Unless you only want to cultivate a certain kind of homeless in which case there are better solutions. The pile of logs will attract everyone.
