It's official... meet Josephine.
It would appear the reason she's been so elusive is because she had babies.
A LOT of babies.
We counted at least six. You can kind of see them hiding in her pouch in the photo. Had this thing dragged out more than a month we'd be hunting a half a dozen opossums in the attic.
Jerry swung by to pick her up. He's releasing her out by the river where he says she'll be happy. I hope he's right.
While he was making room for her in his truck, Jim wandered over, drink in hand. It was 7:30. In the morning.
Jim bent down to check out Josephine and she didn't take kindly to that. She bared her teeth and hissed at him.
"Reminds me of my ex-wife" Jim said.
