The window was open and the possum must have smelled the sweet plums and climbed inside to help himself. We did hear a lot of noise that night, but both of us assumed it was the cat running around. But when we woke up in the morning, we found several plums had been thrown around the table with bites taken out of them.<br/> Date: 2010-01-10T00:00:00.000+13:00<br/> Image: 2009/burning.jpg<br/> Large Image: 2009/burning.jpg<br/> Details: The blackberries are everywhere, their thorny runners creeping through the grass and climbing into trees.<br />With so many wild ones about, we don't need to grow any on the property.

He kept batting it around and then he lost it for a while and turns out he was sitting on it. He must be doing all kinds of hunting because he's hardly touched his dry catfood. It's been in his bowl for about 3 days now and there is still a little left. He's plump as ever though, so I know he's not on a diet.</span></span></span><br/> Date: 2009-10-03T00:00:00.000+13:00<br/>
