Heartwarming Tale: Pregnant Opossum Gratefully Cuddles with Rescuers After They Save Her Babies, Expressing Deep Appreciation and Affection

Judy Obregon was on her way to her mother-in-law’s when she saw something in the road from the corner of her eye.

Leaving her car, she was met with a small opossum lying still on the ground, which she assumed was dead.

But just as she looked to get back in her car, the small animal lifted its head. As Judy got closer, she noticed the animal was intact and didn’t seem to have been struck by a car.

As the founder of The Abandoned Ones ‘Saving Animals in Danger’– an animal rescue in Fort Worth, Texas– Judy has lots of experience in rescuing dogs, however not much when it comes to smaller animals.

She called her husband to come to help her look after the opossum as she obtained the box prepared for her.

Angel seemed to feel eased by him, and clung to him like crazy.

She enjoyed Judy’s husband’s company so much to ensure that it was a battle to pull Angel from him in order to get her into the box to keep her safe.

Judy placed the box on the concrete to enable Angel to crawl into it herself, guiding her in with her hands.

Tabatha thinks Angel and her babies– who are still yet to be born– have a very good possibility at life.

And fortunately for them, Tabatha understands a man who owns 60 acres of land, where hunting is prohibited. He has actually allowed her to release Angel on to his property as soon as she is up to it.
