Possum Magic ✨ (read below)
——————
Little Florence spent a few days with me after being found abandoned in the southern suburbs of Melbourne. Luckily for her, the finder knew to take her to the nearest veterinarian for medical attention, so she can later be released in the Otways or Grampians along with some fellow possum buddies.
If you find a dependent joey on its own with no sign of the mother:
-
Place the joey in a pillowcase or alternatively, wrap the joey in a towel or jumper with a hot water bottle filled with warm water underneath the towel and place it in a box. Do NOT use hot water as it can cause severe burns.
-
Unfurred joeys can be placed under your jumper against your skin for warmth.
-
Call your local wildlife rescue group immediately or take the joey to your closest wildlife hospital or vet.
