I loved this story. Not only because it was uplifting but because opossums are one of my favorite animals on the planet. Their role on Earth is so much more important then most humans realize.
I love stories like this! They didn't have to do what they did - and continue to do - but are very good people, a lovely reminder that there is kindness in this world. Bless you both + your fur baby family!
I had 39 opossums living under my house while doing some renovations. Was able to trap all 3 moms and 36 babies. The last two babies were the hardest to let go into the woods behind my house... I wanted to keep them so bad.lolol But nature rewarded me. I'm raising a baby squirrel that was rescued from a cat. Hoping to release him into the woods behind my house in the next 5-6 weeks. I'd still love to rescue a racoon or opossum tho. 💞
I absolutely loved your video. I know what it is like to find a baby animal and love, nurture and care for that baby. The worry, the concern and the love shown towards this little animal is all consuming. Your opossum is so cute, so innocent and absolutely worth all your hours of care, worry and concern. You have done an incredible job in saving and raising this little creature. A true labor of love.
Where I live in Canada, our local wildlife sanctuary and rescue regularly takes in baby opossums who's mothers have been killed, usually by being hit by cars. In fact, there are online reminders that if anyone sees a dead opossum on the road to please check if there are babies and to save any that are alive so that the wildlife rescue can rehab them.
Love this beautiful baby and your beautiful family! Really special you found GiGi and I hope you all have many many years together! Love this story and happy for all of you!
I KNOW!!! I have a momma who stops by every night for a drink of water. In spring, she had 3 babies on her back. I threw out some chunks of cheeses, and the babies hopped off to eat. Their feet were SO tiny.
Just when you think that the world is going to hell in a handbasket, up pop two wonderful, generous, caring individuals to show us that there is still some goodness left in an ever increasingly dark life.
Thank you so much for taking such a great care of this beautiful opossum! They are amazing creatures and deserve to be loved and respected! God bless you less you for your kindness!🙏❤️
When I see videos like this the first thing that always comes to mind is "is this animal housetrained?" I wish they'd give some details about things like that.
Thank you so much for saving that little creature. This shows what kind of amazing humans you are.❤ At the end of the video she winked at the camera how adorable is that I love her too❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊
I see opossums in my garden sometimes and they scare me because I don’t know what they are going to do. I do protect them from my dogs because I know that their defense is to play dead and that’s not much of a defense. I don’t see them as a threat. This is a nice story
I like the videos, but I pay for TH-cam Premium for a reason. Now we're getting commercials crammed into the middle of these videos. It stinks, and will make me think twice about supporting this channel.
I have Penny. Found her beginning of July and weighing 70 g. She mow weighs almost 2 pounds. I’ve probably raised about 50 doing wildlife rescue. Live these little guys🥰
TH-cam forced me to watch the ad for The Wild Robot 4 times with no Skip button! FOUR TIMES!!! I would love to go ad free but I refuse to give TH-cam the satisfaction by paying them!!!
The sad thing about possums is that they don't live very long. A year or two in the wild, maybe four years in captivity. I just can't have a pet like that. It's hard enough losing a dog after 12-15 years, but losing a pet you love after just a few years? We have a few stray cats and possums that we've fed daily over the years, and every so often we won't see the possum for awhile and we know that he's not with us anymore. It's just sad. I need to look into having a pet that will outlive me so I never have to say goodbye.

A little known fact: some people can be allergic to opossum saliva. My nephew is one of them. When he was a kid, someone rescued some baby possums, after their mom got hit by a car. The kids, of course, had to go see them, and one of them licked The little guy licked my nephew on his face. Within minutes, his face was red and swollen. His Mom was called, and immediately took him to the doctor's office. They had to give him a shot of an antihistamine, and a cream for the rash, which went away in a day or two. Who knew?!?😂😂
PROVERBS 12:10 "The righteous care for the needs of the animals But even the kindness acts of the wicked are cruel " We as humans are the caregivers of all God's animals especially when the animal need our help and this baby possum definitely needed help and you gave your part so Thank you 💕🐾🐾
i'm glad that everyone involved here use the right name, opossum, and avoid the colloquial term 'possum' (which is a different animal _not_ native to the Americas).
I don’t know how they are still thought of as pests when they do so much to help in nature…I love them. ❤

thank you for saving this adorable opossum!! she has blossomed into
a beautiful flower.
I felt attacked by the ad at the beginning. That was a pretty aggressive cut😂😂😂
I agree, it was aggressive as the Migration movie ad they pushed near the end of last year.😄
Cheers,
--Matthew
Lol Just clubbing us over the head with; *The Wild robot*
Yup- wtf with that ad in the MIDDLE and no way to skip. Dodo, do better
LOL. People are so fragile nowadays.
@@cateng767You know you can skip ahead right? It’s not a TH-cam ad.
Opossums are misunderstood for sure. So glad she found a loving home.
I don't understand the hate toward possums. I find them absolutely adorable, never mind they help big time with pest control.
I love stories like this! They didn't have to do what they did - and continue to do - but are very good people, a lovely reminder that there is kindness in this world. Bless you both + your fur baby family!

@@notme2day Wow this is great news 😱😱you are really a good person

I LOOOOVE Possums so much. These people are so cool. Thank you for helping! 🫶🏽
She's all grown up and loves to snuggle in her dad's hoodie. Amazing! ❤
I pay PREMIUM 😂 and got that ninja AD ! Stop

The cutest gd opossum I’ve ever seen omg.
Really this story very greatful
My first impulse is to say "I WANT ONE!" but I see how much work and devotion it takes to take care of them. Kudos to you!
Aww what a beautiful opossum ! ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for taking such good care of this beautiful girl , you guys are amazing!
Love this beautiful baby and your beautiful family! Really special you found GiGi and I hope you all have many many years together! Love this story and happy for all of you!
This is a warm and much needed story we all need to see . We all should show care and love! 💕
What absolutely beautiful people inside and out. The timing of them finding this baby is miraculous - just amazing. Little Miss has the cutest ears!
She’s so dang cute!
How adorable is she and so happy you all found her and now she has a loving, forever home ❤❤❤❤❤. So happy you all didn’t kill one another…😂❤😊
I LOVE it!!! I've raised opossums! They're great! Thank you!
Gorgeous! I volunteer at an animal shelter in my city and I got to meet an amazing ferret named Carrol Anne. She did the same thing to my hoodie :)
Thankyou for taking that sweet little baby in your care.

THE LITTLE FEETSSSS
I KNOW!!! I have a momma who stops by every night for a drink of water. In spring, she had 3 babies on her back. I threw out some chunks of cheeses, and the babies hopped off to eat. Their feet were SO tiny.
@@celestemartinez3560 OMG that's soooooo cool!!!!
Right???❤❤❤
That ad felt SO out of place
Right! Why am I paying for premium if there’s an ad stuck in there? 😑
Dodo chooses to promote it because its about animals, just like last years migration 😊
I don't pay for YT premium and l don't have commercials ... I use an ad blocker app that's free. Win win 🙃
This cute little opossum is the most adorable little bit!! Just a cutie pie and a beautiful dream come true!!
So cute. I love possums ! 💜
Love this! I had a different view of possums until this video. Beautiful relationship.
She’s beautiful

What a sweet looking baby. Gracias por cuidarla y protegerla ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for taking such a great care of this beautiful opossum! They are amazing creatures and deserve to be loved and respected! God bless you less you for your kindness!🙏❤️
When I see videos like this the first thing that always comes to mind is "is this animal housetrained?" I wish they'd give some details about things like that.
I always wonder that too with foxes, squirrels etc that are in a lot of these videos.
I didn't know opossums ate ticks & fleas!! Awesome. Always learning on the DODO😁😁
😊 God bless your big happy family. I wish your kindness were contagious. I love your act of kindness, your family and your big hearts.
Thank you so much for saving that little creature. This shows what kind of amazing humans you are.❤
At the end of the video she winked at the camera how adorable is that I love her too❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊
Awe. Such a cute critter. Thank you for adopting her❤
Why is there no emoji for an opossum ?? 🤔
They’re so sweet & misunderstood ~Thank you for saving that precious life💛
I'm 35 years old and I don't think I've ever used a smiley or "emoji" as the kids call them. Is language not beautiful enough on it's own?
I see opossums in my garden sometimes and they scare me because I don’t know what they are going to do. I do protect them from my dogs because I know that their defense is to play dead and that’s not much of a defense. I don’t see them as a threat. This is a nice story
I pay for premium precisely so I don't have to see ads. Why am I seeing them?
I like the videos, but I pay for TH-cam Premium for a reason. Now we're getting commercials crammed into the middle of these videos. It stinks, and will make me think twice about supporting this channel.
I prefer that over waiting 6 seconds, or unskipable ads.
I agree! It's bad enough with Amazon Prime now including commercials in their program. I hate the fact that TH-cam is doing it now, too!
That’s why I stopped paying almost 20 dollars a month I would stop watching my creators at that point cause all of them have in video ads
I have Penny. Found her beginning of July and weighing 70 g. She mow weighs almost 2 pounds. I’ve probably raised about 50 doing wildlife rescue. Live these little guys🥰
Great rescue! I know that wonderful couple are doing the right thing by her and she is so adorable.
TH-cam forced me to watch the ad for The Wild Robot 4 times with no Skip button! FOUR TIMES!!! I would love to go ad free but I refuse to give TH-cam the satisfaction by paying them!!!
What a good cat ❤
Beautiful people; thx for saving her ❤
Love the channel but what was the commercial that showed up!!?? 😂😂
Relacionado con la vida silvestre, nada de qué preocuparse, está muy bien.
DreamWorks The Wild Robot
She’s a sweet girl! Thanks for rescuing and loving her!! ❤
God bless you ❤
God bless you for saving, caring for & loving this tiny little baby 👍🙏❤️
They are not pests!! My favorite animal. Love this!
They love apples. We all need to plant more food for the wildlife.
He's so cute❤❤❤❤❤❤
Who else learned that opposums are pollinators today? They really are amazing and cute animals! Thank you for saving her!
Beautiful couple, Beautiful possum ❤
Wow, you guys are wonderful!!
Weepy Bill is back! And he's asking bizarre questions about their relationship!!
Now that's quality "producing!" 😂
She's like, "Well, this is my home now, yep."
My lord... that woman is absolutely gorgeous!
Hey, it's the guy with the love--not-so-sure-about-this relationship with his cat!
Thanks for rescuing her and loving her! ❤
It's so so cute
Share this folks with everyone!!!! ❤❤we need to spread the word !!!

Mom possum is like who took my baby?
❤❤
This is the life ❤✌️
Either I've lost it or I watched this exact video yesterday. 🤔
Such a beautiful video ... and then the ad jumpscare happens.
Since when have TH-cam videos had full on ads edited into them??? I've seen sponsors in the video, but this was basically a commercial break
Love her! ❤
Well done best of luck ❤❤❤
So adorable ❤❤❤
So cute
Sweet baby
Wonderful 😊👏👍❤

Get a reptile or a bird. Some can live upwards of 40 years.
thank you for a nice video
