Goodbye, Sherlock
I can't believe I'm burying another pet this week. Friendly's death is still fresh in our minds and hearts, and now Sherlock, our short tail opossum has gone to join Friendly.
He was just a year old a couple of weeks ago. We rescued him from a bad situation last January and gave him a new, loving, and caring home. He loved to ride in R's coat pocket, and run in his wheel. He would eat out of our hands and hang upside down by his tail on our fingers.
Words cannot express our sadness. It seems this is our week, month, season, year of loss for our little family.Goodbye, Sherlock. You've left a possum sized hole in our hearts.

Opossums don't live long do they?
Awww what a good life you gave him, though
Awe what a cute little guy.
Oh no! I'm so sorry...
I'm so sorry to hear about Friendly and Sherlock.
@NightCometh - good point.
I have a cat named Sherlock (for his inquisitive nature) but he's rather old. Afraid to see him go too one day.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry Meg.
That's sad! I am sorry for your loss! I've never heard of someone having a pet opossum before. That would be interesting topic for the animal Ish blog I want to get started. If you are interested in pets having an Ish site like Datingish and Lovelyish, I'd love your support http://www.xanga.com/ideas/2095/anishblogforpetlovers.html
I have no words. Just hugs.
I have lost so many animals. I sympathize=)

He's precious, and I'm glad to know you gave him a better life than he'd had. I'm so sorry for your loss. <3
It always feels like they take a little part of your heart with them. So sorry for loss.
I had a cat named Friendly - your Friendly is the only other pet named Friendly I have ever heard of. Losing a pet is heart-breaking.
