Opossum and Kitten Fight Over Road Killed Squirrel

My young pet opossum, Fiesty, and my kitten, Playa, were fighting over this road killed squirrel. The squirrel was for more variety for the opossum's diet, but the kitten wanted some too.

@The ENDOFCIVILIZATION, the blue square is probably due to my inexperience at taking a video tape and putting it on a dvd. This was my first time to do it. I'll bet digital is much easier.

Thanks, missrani125. The reason I didn't feed the opossum outside was because I had two big dogs at the time that would also have enjoyed eating squirrel or opossum. :)

Before giving the squirrel to the opossum, I did put down lots of paper. Who wants blood on their bathroom floor? Well, when Fiesty became an adult, he said good bye to everyone by climbing up on our beds and sniffing at us. Then he went out into his cage and dug a hole and left. He was ready. We enjoyed raising him and he got the best of care despite what some of you may have thought. Opossums are wonderful gentle creatures. Thanks for all the comments good and bad. :)

This opossum was in training to return to the wild. He had plenty of good food to eat. I would take him out every night with a harness to hunt. He mostly found slugs and snails to eat. Opossums are carnivores, and so when I saw a freshly killed squirrel on the road, I brought it home for him. The kitten just wanted some too.

They got along okay until they were teenagers. Fiesty would be going up the stairs and Playa would jump on his back and Fiesty would just stand there and open his mouth. For those of you fearing for the kitten, the opossum was the non-aggressive one. It was amazing to watch his patience. He never again made an aggressive move on the kitten. Anyone who has kittens knows that they can be brats and this kitten did deserve the nip he got. It didn't even hurt him.

Wow, I wasn't getting my notifications to my old email and recently updated my email on You Tube. I didn't know there were so many comments. Let me just say, that Feisty the opossum came into my care when he could fit in my hand. Shortly after we got him, we got the kitten named, Playa.

Where I live we have what are called "Pet Stores" and in these "Pet Stores" you can buy what we call "food." Hopefully someday you'll have on in your neighborhood.
