Guest guest Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Hi , Wow you do have a bunch of pets huh? lol. Im glad cause they must all be amazing. I saw you have a chinchilla and i love those lil guys so much. My neighbor got 2 a few months ago and ive gone over to see and play with em I think its great that you have rescued and fostered some neglected animals. I think i told you in past that my dream is to have a rescue/shelter/farm one day LOL. Did i read right that you are fostering 2 possums?
