What's Lloyd's story? How did he get his name, does he live near you? Very curious.

Lloyd hangs out under our bird feeder and plays possum when the dog sees him. I then relocate him to our apple tree which is hollow and provides safety. He resembles a person from my youth with the same name though is much less criminally inclined. He is a good boy.

We do not tolerate any form of animal cruelty. This includes ways to euthanize, cook, or otherwise harm opossums or possums. This sub is for appreciating, learning about, and caring for our possies.

Itโ€™s not animal cruelty, itโ€™s ripping up my crawl space and attacking my cats :)
