Sweet Theodore has gotten so big so fast. He can now get out of this tote, (no he feet are not on ground it just looks like it lol) he is only in it when I am at work but can get out of the baby bed he sleeps in at home if he tries hard enough.

UPDATE BABY GIRL IS AT VET. If you can donate please send money to Dr Cato towards Lisa Brierly wildlife bill. Without medication bill is $113.54 after medical total is $160.04 PLEASE DONATE!! Ok so they won’t bill me I have to pay all of it today, so if you donate it has to go through cashapp or pd to me
This tiny baby girl came to me late last night. Eyes and ears still closed. Usually ears open at 18dats old and eyes will open about 3 days later. The lady who brought her said she and stuff around her eye and immediately became panicked because I thought OMG distemper. I took baby in front of her vehicle to headlights and discovered it was maggots in her left eye a bunch of tiny maggots!!! Her eyes shouldn’t even be open yet. So the lady, Kathy I believe, and I rushed into my house and basically flushed the eye out, Kathy helped get all of the out of that baby’s eye. She got a couple baths because I kept finding them on her here and there. She is cleaned up, warm and seems to be content, I just pray her eye is ok and that it is ok that her eye is open early. I have 2 favors to ask. PLEASE pray for this baby to be ok and If anyone can please help sponser this Baby Girl. We need some formula and please a trip to vet that is usually around $115 at Dr Cato he is my wildlife vet you could probably go up there and just put some donations on the books. I would like to have her checked out and her eyes checked.
I have posted pictures below of the formula since Amazon is out of it I have to order from Henry’s pets. So after shipping the 1 pound bag is about $33 the 3.5 pound is about $74.18 🤦🏻‍♀️ you can cashapp me or purchase and send to Lisa Brierly 15 Jefferson Davis Rd Heber Springs, Ar 72543

The opossum in your yard just gave birth to twenty-five babies. Each one is the size of a honeybee.

After only twelve to thirteen days of pregnancy — the shortest of any North American mammal — she delivers up to twenty-five young at once. Blind. Deaf. No fur. Barely formed. They look like pink jellybeans with oversized front arms.

The moment they're born, they crawl. Unassisted. From the birth canal to the pouch. Three inches of fur. For a baby the size of a bee, that's the longest journey of its life.

They can't see. They can't hear. They navigate by instinct and gravity alone, pulling themselves forward with those tiny arms until they reach the pouch and find a ni**le.

She has exactly thirteen ni**les. Up to twenty-five babies are making the climb. The first thirteen to latch on stay attached for the next two months. The pouch closes around them and they fuse to the ni**le while they finish developing — eyes, ears, fur, everything that wasn't ready at birth forms inside the pouch.

This system has been running for roughly seventy million years. Opossums survived the extinction event that ended the dinosaurs. They outlasted saber-toothed cats, giant ground sloths, and every ice age since. The short pregnancy, the massive litter, the pouch — it's not primitive. It's the oldest working reproductive strategy on the continent.

She only lives one to two years. She compensates by doing this twice a year. The math works because it's been working longer than most mammal lineages have existed.

🐾 If an opossum is in your yard this spring:

- A mother with a swollen pouch is carrying developing young — she's not injured or sick, she's working. Leave her alone and she'll move through your yard on her nightly route
- By late spring, the babies ride on her back — up to thirteen small opossums clinging to the mother as she forages. It looks precarious but they rarely fall
- If you find a baby opossum alone and it's smaller than seven inches nose to tail, it needs help — contact a wildlife rehabilitator. Larger than seven inches and it's likely independent
- Opossums eat ticks, carrion, slugs, and fallen fruit. A mother with a pouch full of young is doing more pest control per night than almost anything else in your neighborhood

That slow quiet animal crossing your yard tonight is running the oldest reproductive system in North America. And she does it twice a year 🌿

Well God sent me 8 babies yesterday! 4 baby raccoons and 4 baby squirrels. I can’t take anymore with everything I have going on lol. That are all so sweet.
I think the baby squirrels eyes will open anytime. 🥰
The baby raccoons are so skinny and starving and COVERED in ticks so they are getting baths this morning. They haven’t quite learned how to suck on a bottle ni**le yet but they were happy to have food. So I’m back to 28 bottles a day. 😳
