gk has taken all the photos of possums from pages 3-6. we have decided to name the possums. the mother is ginger, and the baby is cocoa.

21/08/05: i handfed cocoa for the first time tonight. ginger was eating gingerbread, and cocoa had squirmed around such that her head was under her mother's, and she was trying to nibble at the gingerbread. when i held out a tiny piece of gingerbread to her, she wasn't afraid of me, but instead of taking it from me she nibbled while i held onto it. i'm not sure how well-developed her teeth are yet, or how healthy gingerbread is for her at this stage, but she was very attracted to the smell of it, and ate a few crumbs.
