We have a possum named lucky. We have had lucky for a long time, I think too long. He needs to be released, he should have been released back in November before we went on holidays, but because he has been in our care for a long period of time and has had some major health issues, he's become used to us, we are at a loss as to what to do with him. Bottom line, he needs to be released, or at least moved on away from our influence.
Tonight he just about his destroyed his cage with broken branches and shelves etc. we are at our wits ends as to what to do with him. No release site has been found for him yet. I feel for him every night, he is too big to be in care anymore. There has to be somewhere he can go. He is healthy now, but because he has been in our care for so long he is to used to us, so he needs someone else to take him on before release so he becomes more wild. That is not happening. I so want to go out side and release him here but it is not viable as we have to many brushtail possums in the area and a dog. AGHHHHHHHHHHH. I am getting as frustrated as he is. The bottom photo above is when he was at his worst. The two photos above at his best and how he is now.
