  The blood lust in his eyes. 1,000 burning suns, his soul is as dark as a blackhole.

  His name is mort

  I used to wrestle with one of my kitties and had to stop because it went from cute to painful (for me). She absolutely thought she could kill me.

    You can also dump catnip over your body before wrestling to emphatize with the gladiators.

    After you permanently stopped wrestling with her, did she ever get playful and come attack you when your guard was down and vulnerable?

      Yes, that’s exactly why we had to stop. She pounced when we weren’t playing and scratched my eye. Luckily, no permanent damage. (I was lying down when she got me.)

  At least you don’t need to worry about a fucking bear or moose charging at you at full speed.

    Or rabies. Australians might have to watch out for their own brand thereof, but they don’t have rabies to contend with.

    I feel a ton of people don’t internalize the meme about European forests and North American.

    Our outdoors are fucking scary!

    That being said, I hike through grizzly country fairly often, and have never had a problem. But my food is usually dehydrated.

      I am in the outdoors a lot as well (in australia) and while snakes aren’t an uncommom sight, I only know one person who has ever been bitten.

    Never underestimate what a small creature can do.

    I had the distinct displeasure of being a manager over a jackass that maced a bunny. (It was begging for food and he freaked out.)

    Buns panicked, ran up his pantleg and went all Spawn of Caerbannog on his balls.

    Dunno if he was emasculated, but you’d think it by his screaming. (It wasn’t just that it got nibbly. Buns was soaked in OC spray he was definitely not supposed to have.)

    Buns found a good home with the animal rescue lady, too. She was decidedly less frosty when I asked for a copy of her report so we could put in his file.

  Omg! Is that a little possum‽

  (Side note in American, opossum is pronounced with the “O”!!!)

  • pulsewidth@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Sure is. Like Cliff said, it’s a Western Pygmy Possum (from social media source).

  Missed the joke by this much…

  “not all Australian animals can kill you… Don’t get me wrong, he wants to, but he just can’t”
