Possums and cats

[<>]

Val
If a Brushtail has a small baby there is a chance the cat will take it. What 
about little feathertail and Sugar gliders, you probably wouldnt see them too 
much but they would be around. They take and kill a lot of Ringtails. It is 
very sad as we see a lot of what cats destroy.
