15.01.2022 I had a bit of a problem today Mork and Mindy have been outside a few nights now Mork decided to escape when I removed branches and he went up the tree Thank Goodness I just grabbed his tail he was almost out of reach. They are both in the cage Mindy in a towel so I could get ready to get a weigh on her she loves to bite

12.01.2022 How lucky was possum paws to escape damage to the enclosures a huge limb from the willow tree broke off overnight and was hanging over the fence missing cages and house glad it fell in that direction.

11.01.2022 Jack's got a few more leaves than me. This is Jane in her cage after she has flattened her fresh browse she is having a good rampage

10.01.2022 Barney and Ozzie have been just moved outside Barney is checking out the place while Ozzie is trying to work out how to undo the straps so he can plan a escape back inside.

10.01.2022 Possum paws would like to thank Michelle who arranged a Bitthday fundraiser for her birthday for Possum Paws. Thank you to everyone who has donated to the shelter your support is appreciated very much. Every little bit helps to run the shelter the cost of Milk formula and medical treatments soon add up. I run the shelter by myself I currently have a lot of little faces to feed and your very kind donations go 100% to the wildlife in care here at Possum Paws. Thank you

09.01.2022 Little Ozzie is bright eyed and any chance he gets to ditch the pouch he is up for it

09.01.2022 A few days ago I had this mum and her babies incare last night she started to chew the bars of her cage she wanted out no matter what and tonight she was released in the exact tree she was found at the base of. She wasted no time in gathering her bubs and off they shot up into the tree and disappeared

08.01.2022 Meet JK who has just came into tonight he was found on the ground in a paddock stone cold and he has facial trauma. Thank you Judy and Kevin for collecting him and warming him up before meeting with me to pick him up. Been a few new arrivals in the last few days will add them over the next few days. It's been super busy with rescues etc.

08.01.2022 Sweet new arrival here at Possum Paws a little girl Brushtail Possum

07.01.2022 Rosie & Junha have been released onto a beautiful 100 acres of all bush on friends property tomorrow is Bumper's release. They are safe from roads etc I can go out anytime I like to collect browse etc. Was hard to chose the spots as all have great views and its so quite and the kangaroos and wallabies even had a sticky nose to see what was happening. Hardest part was saying farewell as always. Time for a few tears now as always.... They have all a nesting box when they leave home and Thank you Phil for my boxes. See more

06.01.2022 All mine No your not taking it back Don't you touch it

05.01.2022 Yesterday I got to personally thank a awesome young man Cooper who made some fully lined and hidden seams in the possum pouches also he made a awesome possum box. He also donated 10 boxes of fragrance free tissues and 12 packets fragrance free baby wipes for the possums. Cooper Thank you so much for thinking of Possum Paws Wildlife Shelter we greatly appreciate your awesome donation. Was lovely to meet you and your family. Thank you very much.

04.01.2022 Aussie has been sprung. Mum I promise I was washing my paws none of us possums would be so Rude.

03.01.2022 Meet Ivy she having her face wiped this is taken just after her feed before the tissue makes contact she tries to escape that part

02.01.2022 The last few nights my possums in the pre release cages have all been a bit more vocal so upon hearing it again at 1 am I go out for a look thinking it was a cat again torch in hand out I go and I shine the torch about and on the side of Barney's cage I see eyes looking at me. Thinking Barney's gotten out i went to grab him I then see Barney on top of his nesting box in his cage. Then I do a quick shine on the other two cages and Ozzie and Jk are in their cages accounted for so this possum is Not one of mine he took off up the willow tree well away from me. He or she looked healthy and not adult mum would be about as I have a reserve just over my back fence. I have only seen my resident Ringtail about before tonight so I have left the cold and come away so the possums can play

02.01.2022 Meet Jasmine she came in Sunday evening
