I fuzzied up little Nervous Ned... a good grooming with the old toothbrush & he is is all fluffed up, & I am hoping...looking a little more possum like. Oh yah, gave him a bit of a wee shower with the old spray bottle & then scrubbed his back...under his arms...no soap though...he's new... so he's not to stinky yet. {do possums smell...I wouldn't know} The weee shower & scrub lightened his coat up just right... I then went back in with some white paint here... a little pink there and last but not least, gave him a wee tuffet for his little fuzzy behind. He is a custom piece for a gal who has been called possum since she was a little girl... a sweet endearment for sure. I hope this little guy finds a warm place in her heart & home...

Adorable and yes they really smell horrible. But I am sure this one smells fresh as daisies.
Blessings,Pea
Susan he turned out beautifully... I never thought I would be a Possum person but this little guy makes me want to be. :)
Hugs,

Suzie, I love him! You have done a fabulous job of capturing a possum, not too easy to do I would think.
Like Pea said, I've always heard they smell but thankfully have never been close enough to personally know!
Hope the human "Possum" loves him!

Susan, you needn't be nervous over Nervous Ned because he is just perfect!
Possum should find a great deal of enjoyment from owning this piece. I know I would!
