Possum Simpson

Possum wouldn’t let me pet her the first year that I had her…along with 13 other kitties that were dumped on my road in the country,she was always fearful of humans.No matter how hard I tried,she wouldn’t venture near until one day,she got stuck up in a tree. For two days I tried to coax her down with no success.Finally,I took a 25 foot ladder and leaned it against the tree,climbed up,and told her,”You have to come down this ladder,watch me.” Well I sat and waited,talking to her for hours,and finally,she came down the ladder front paws first! She was so happy that she immediately came up to me and head butted my hand…and from then on,we have been the best of friends.Now,it is coming to the end of our earthly journey together…I waited on you to come down out of that tree those many years ago,and now you will wait on me at the other side of the Rainbow Bridge….be patient baby girl,I’ll be there just as soon as God is done with me here~Love you forever baby girl !!!
