Possum Replaces Mau the Cat at Food Dish inside the House

I was sitting on the edge of the bed reading. I had just fed Mau the cat, and he was eating. Then I saw Mau step outside. Then I saw some movement, and I thought to myself, “Mau is back.” Nope! It was his friend the possum. The two of them have been hanging out since the possum was a baby.
