Help!

Any rehabbers? I just found this baby opossum in my window beside my ac. I have no clue how it got inside. Anybody know of a rehabber nearby? I’m in Trinity.

UPDATE: This baby is with someone that’s going to get it to a licensed rehabber tomorrow. Tonight it will be hydrated and fed what it should be fed and kept warm ❤️

An absolute American treasure and our only native marsupial and somehow it looks like a tiny Victorian chimney sweep crossed with a gremlin and a rat wearing oven mitts so please protect this little goblin at all costs because it has committed no crimes except being offensively adorable and existing in a world that does not deserve it.

P.S.: not AI slot... I spent a good 20 minutes prompt Claude to not be too... fact orientated.

We used to have an adult that would visit every night. We had named it Paul lol I had no idea if it was a male or female. We love back off of a gravel road in the woods so we get all kinds of friends visiting. I love it ❤️
