Selina - I am sorry we were on different sides of the Fed/Murray match. His time will come!

Salty Miss Jill - cuter perhaps. But still nosy little buggers.

Sandy - Aw, I hope you do get a good nights sleep! I refuse to let Picasso ruin another person's rest. Ah, Splinter...good call. No Picasso is on the Possum squad.

Oh my god, I got goosebumps all over reading this, and when I realised that you had posted photos I was too scared to scroll down. But I did and Ithankyou, I'll not be able to sleep tonight for fear of the teenage mutant ninja rat (or is that just Splinter?) is coming to get me.

And I type this comment without reading everyone else's and realise I've almost replicated Chris' comment. WEIRD!

Oh, and now I see that it's a possum. Freaky little shits.

Well...Australian possums are much cuter than the American possums...but I wouldn't want either in my bed!
My solution: get a cat.

Oh. My. God.
That has completely freaked me out, namely because I'm terrified of rats and even mice but that....that looks monstrous. You know you are going to have to find somewhere else to live.
I'm going back to watch the tennis to get that image out of my head. I'm not rooting for Federer, obviously!

V - I know it was impossible to sleep afterwards.....

2010-01-30T14:59:33.409+11:00

V - I know it was impossible to sleep afterwards...I felt like rats were climbing on me.

Megs - don't let this stop you from moving to Australia!

Bridget - It's a possum, which now that I know it isn't a rat I feel much better about life. Raccoons! That is funny.

Frisky Librarian - I am usually not - I think it was mostly because it startled me while I was sleeping.

2010-01-30T11:12:06.345+11:00

I can never quite fathom why people are so afraid of creatures much smaller than themselves (unless said creature is poisonous or prone to giving nasty bites). I guess I'm just really brave and tough. ;)

Also on the topic of possums, I'd much rather have your giant rodent than the possum that very inconsiderately chose to die in my ceiling just before Christmas and make a bad smell. Gak.

2010-01-30T09:07:03.545+11:00

But what IS it? Also, I just spoke to my old landlord and she told me our old apartment is now infested with raccoons. Since it is our *old* apartment, and not one we are currently living in, this is absolutely hilarious.

2010-01-30T07:43:55.489+11:00

My worst fear ever. Well this and being attacked by chipmunks. Maybe this is the reason not to move to Oz?

Ewwwww....I hate when this shit happens....Creepy!...

2010-01-30T03:44:28.926+11:00

Ewwwww....I hate when this shit happens....Creepy! I found spiders yesterday....and thought they were crawling on me when I was sleeping....I feel your Ughhh!:)

2010-01-29T21:44:57.359+11:00

Chris - I don't plan on making eye contact with Picasso. I feel better that he has a name now. but I am still a bit edgy about going to sleep tonight!

DDG - This is all I am saying. I'm trying to be brave!

Sara - I know - this stuff keeps me up at night too! And, no. Picasso can't move in!

Twenty Four - I know! which is too bad because it's summer and it's hot! and ye gods.

Rini - I am not typically too skittish either - I've dealt with snakes, mice, but this is a giant possum named Picasso - and he deserves my respect, I dare say.

Rats typically don't bother me. Unless I know...

2010-01-29T16:05:59.206+11:00

Rats typically don't bother me. Unless I know they're in the area but have NO idea where they are. I spook easy. But if I know where the rat is. I'm fine.

I can actually claim herding both a small mouse and a rat into a box and then putting it outside -- two different jobs.

I would hope my cats would come to my aid at home.... though the idea of mouse/rat bits is GROSS.

2010-01-29T15:00:10.457+11:00

I would NEVER sleep again. And also? I would never open any window in the house again. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!

2010-01-29T11:42:00.718+11:00

Oh.my.god. Those things are big. I bet they were whispering about you. I bet they were all "Do you think she's asleep yet so we can move in?@ Sorry. I know I shouldn't say that, but these are things I think about. You know. The rodents that are out to get me. It's exhausting being me.

OHMYGOSH! IIIIII may never sleep again after reading this and seeing your photos. You poor, kitten. Eek. You and Rhea have it nailed -- he's totally a Teenage Mutant Ninja Rodent rat. Don't make eye contact with him... ever.
