My
neighbourhood possums appreciates my cat (my daughter's technically dumped on us
after she went to England) - it comes every night and eats any cat food the cat
hasn't finished. There is no indication the the cat is interested in it or
that it worries the possum it in anyway (it will even tolerate people as
long as they don't move). And yes the possum is not toilet trained, big deal!
The cat
doesn't go after birds as far as I can tell - the only time it showed any
interest was when a young Grey Butcherbird came and sang to my wife and my self
while sitting on a chair back at the outside table - the cat snarled a bit
seeing the Butcherbird about three feet away but didn't move. It is a very
big cat, well fed, and sleeps 90% of the time.
