Oppossum baby in need

[Pennys dad]

All is well in Squirrel world but yesterday afternoon a baby oppossum appeared in the 5 star dinning facility. It seemed to be looking for something or someone. I thought that the mom might be near by so I left it alone and went on feeding the "guys". This morning though the little one again appeared and did the same thing. I know nothing about them and it would seem to be motherless. Is there anywhere if I can get the baby caged that I can take it to in the St. Pete/Tampa area? for rehab. I hate to see it not be taken care of it, is so cute
Thanks,
Pennys Dad

:Welcome Pennys dad. We do have some possie people here and in the Fla. area so if you just hang around a bit I'm sure someone will be getting back to you with some information. :thankyou for being concerned for this little one. :thumbsup

can we get a pic so we can age it?
thanks phil...
I recently found a wee little possie too, I don't do them so I called another TSB member that does.;)
If you can post a pic, I will PM her to this thread...
hoping she has room!
Possie will need a ride to her as she works from home and workls long hours...
cute little guys aren't they...
do not fear the teeth, trhey are harmless when little..
I was told if they fall of mommas back, she does not wait for them...they get left behind...
