Opossum rescue (More updates)
13 years ago
(This will be the journal that I'll keep updating, sorry for the spam.)
Now I will go into more detail. What I can give, at least. The rescue wants to stay anonymous due to them (basically) finding out I was a furry(Thank you family :|). They'll let me rescue the opossum, but they frown on my ways(I don't even do much in the fandom). Slightly annoying, but this is saving a life, not caring about being judged. Maybe I could help give furs a good name to a few people.
One day, I was approached, and asked if I would help rescue wildlife. I said yes, but only one species.
Skunks are to destructive, my family hates racoons, etc etc
I said if a Virginia Opossum (sometimes known as the American Opossum) needed a permanent home, if it couldn't go back to the wild for various reasons, I would take it under my wing. They said they would get back to me. I thought they were kidding at first.
Knowing that I might be contacted, my family set up and got a license(permit) just in case.
A few months wait and I received an email. This opossum was a boy, a couple years old, and was hit by a car. Spine damage, etc. I wasn't able to get the money, so he was adopted by another.
Recently, couple of weeks ago, I was contacted by another rescue. A female opossum was in need of a home due to being to human friendly. She was raised since a baby, but her caretakers had her illegally and couldn't get a permit so the rescue took her in. So, I have been contacted by both parties, and they booth agree that my home should be the female opossum's home.
So, the point of all that was to say I still need to raise $70 to rescue her. My family will pay for the cost of living, but I have to pay for the cost of adoption and gas. If I don't get the money, they may just put her down, which she doesn't deserve.
Raised: $70/$70
Thanks so much!
