Cat scratches are extremely thin sometimes - my two youngsters use my ladderback dining chairs as climbing frames the little bu88ers. There's these little hairline tracks on them. Being recycled softwood they will polish out with the special stuff you can use with colour and a bit of filler in it.
Imagine 2 Mabels with pointy ears and fur instead of hair, you get the picture.

I thought possums had big thick claws? I must google a possum picture and look.

I think its a cat. A black cat sat crying like a baby outside my bedroom window last night. It was a bizarre noise! I got up and talked to it through the window but it went over the fence.

I think they look quite snug. We have a huge fox that wanders around our block. Thought it was a baby kanga the first time I saw it until I saw the tail :lol:

aaahhhhhhhh ... they are so cute!
when we visited my mate debs up in noosa, one evening we could hear loud slurping noises out in the bush ... turning the flashlight onto the trees in the bush, her hubby immediately found the possums up high in the trees eating passionfruit ... awesome moment!!!
