Yes. Mr.Wrekker got one somewhere. I think he bought it at a gun auction. Son-of-a-wrek is lisc. to use it. The darts are by prescription only. You can get a blow gun in any rural needs catalogue. If you can blow hard. Hey that’s funny. Now I know why blow hards are useful to society. 🤭 ---

I dunno, if you start with a bunch of little fish and end up with a bunch of big fish, I don’t see anything to complain about. Every time I take one of my rats to the vet, he’s a big hit with the staff. I think it’s a treat for them to see something other than a dog or cat. ---

Not to mention a steady diet of Cheerios! Clarence is the royalty of the possum world! ---

Aww. Thanks, @wolfpup . He is a good boy and I feel honored to know him. Today he actually chased Dillon the Villian. (Well, _chase_ might be generous, he went toward him kinda fast and Dillon ran)Dillon has yet to learn possum manners. ---
