I think my cat just killed a possum! (PHOTOS)


Recommended Posts

you actually examined the skeleton, dont you have anything better to do with your time, as well as your dad.........worrying !

Come on, you're sitting at your computer posting in a thread about a skeleton that he examined, and you say he has nothing better to do?

haha, nice story :p i dont think a cat is capable of killing, and eating an animal of that site.. It was probably something like a racoon, that ate it apart..

cute cat :p :cat:

I had a tough pet rooster once. He was so bad ass. He was very use to humans, he would come up to you and do a little dance around your feet.

A possum almost killed him once, a lady beat him in the head with a walking cane, and the dog almost chewed him up. He still lived.

In the end he got run over by the neighbor's car. Damn I miss that bird.

The cat is innocent. Clearly the cat didn't do it. It's just looks to clean.

O rly??? (sorry, couldn't resist) It seems like that skeleton is a bit large for your cat to have killed it (though of course it's really hard to judge perspective), but if it was small enough, it seems perfectly reasonable to believe that the cat did kill it. Supercat - protecting our back yards from critters one skeleton at a time...

Well, some of you have suggested that it might have been a younger possum, and that's entirely possible too. The possum that we thought it might have been actually lived under our deck, and had babies a while ago, so my cat might be not just a possum killer, but a baby killer. I'll make sure to post more photos if I find anything else lying dead in our yard. :)

EDIT: Go Steelers!

I doubt that a cat can take on something that size AND strip it clean. Cat's (in my experiance) dont eat everything if they can't fit it down their throat whole (they would with something as small as a mouse).

totally wrong. my cat kills squirrels and birds and eats them in the backyard. most times he only leaves the tail behind

    • Cheap labour, the same as the U.K. China pays their people pittance.
    • Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.
    • Tim Cook: "The US over time began to stop having as many vocational kinds of skills." What's the point of wasting time getting those skills if you can't get a job with them? Good Lord, maybe he and his cohort of CEO's who exported all these jobs to China should just shut the f**k up :D
    • I made a new Cinematic/Trailer for the game, this will be the intro, still a work in progress!  I also updated the Steam page with a ton of new screenshots! 👀 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3925340/Incoherence_Dark_Rooms/
